    Edge's Les Paul Customs Experts

    wow - thanks a lot for the great info and the close up shots!! check out songs like new years day, dirty day, and zoo station from the Zoo TV DVD - it looks A LOT more yellow than any other pics i have seen of what i assume to be the same guitar. i know lighting can make a huge difference but...

    Edge's Les Paul Customs Experts

    So, I happened to be watching my Zoo TV DVD last night after a long lay off (man, they were on fire then)... Anyway, i was shocked by how yellow Edge's LPC looked. I know that he auctioned the 1975 #2 - in pics, it look aged white but much more of a cream color and not really yellow. I also...

    Effect for Exit

    is there a very short delay in that song - in addition to the distortion/overdrive?

    SDD2000 or SDD3000

    believe that edge used the SDD3000. do you think i would be satisfied in trying to get edge-like rich, toned, warm delay sounds out of the 2000? the 2000 is proving a lot easier to find (and obviously at a lower price) but it is still expensive and if the 3000 really is 'better' to get that...

    Effect for Exit

    Guys, I wonder if anyone had any idea what set-up might lead to a sound as displayed on the R&H version of Exit. Im thinking mostly of the solo - it has an almost overdriven, 'glassy'/'wet' type sound - if that makes any sense. What effects would give something like this? Am i right in...

    Aspiring Edge in the Bedroom - What Next?

    funny you should say that. after a bit more research im debating between the ad30 or whether it would be worth it to me to get a tube amp. and then if tube whether 15w or 30w. obviously, it seems that tube is a longer term investment (particularly in 30w) but i am just not sure that, for my...

    Aspiring Edge in the Bedroom - What Next?

    tourist, thanks. couple of follow-up questions on the amp idea: - any thoughts on the amount of improvement i would see going with a 15w amp? would it really not be that much better than what i have now (for example, would you suggest stepping all the way up to 30w or else just keep what i...

    Aspiring Edge in the Bedroom - What Next?

    also, followup on the amp suggestion. after some really preliminary research it seems that we would be talking along the lines of a vox acc30 (a little over $1000) and similar pricing for a 30w fender? or are there more specific models i should be looking at? this may be a little more than...

    Aspiring Edge in the Bedroom - What Next?

    interesting - i had thought the overwhelming opinion was going to be some sort of effect but the amp makes some amount of sense...since i assume with my little crap microcube no decent sound is really going to be coming out? in terms of effects, if i wanted to get a little more of the new...

    Aspiring Edge in the Bedroom - What Next?

    Hey Guys, Was hoping to get some advice from you, as many appear quite knowledgeable about Edge's sound, etc. I am getting back into playing guitar after taking a multi-year break. I had started slowly back (i.e. got a mexican made strat, tiny microcube practice amp, and then added an echo...

    *ultra deluxe bono shades thread*

    is there a link to the 611's?? i dont seem to be able to find them on ebay - thanks

    *ultra deluxe bono shades thread*

    makes sense - the only way there should be differences in fit would be either the way in which they were handled or natural tolerances of the manufacturing process (i.e. they wouldnt be purposefully made to fit differently)

    *ultra deluxe bono shades thread*

    i have 3 pairs - the D23, G49, and G37 - there shouldnt be any difference in fit across any of the same model just because of different lens colors (i.e. the frames are all the same)
  15. U

    *ultra deluxe bono shades thread*

    Obviously, a lot of this is going to come down to personal preference...that being said: - the d23 are much more of a 'conservative' look. yes, the shape is the same but the frames are black and the lenses are black. - youre correct, depending on the lighting conditions the G37 can look...
