And that looks like a rather spacious room!
It's a much more creativity-inspiring room now. It's a pretty decent size, about half of my basement. For a four-piece band recording simultaneously it's pretty much perfect.

The Boss GT series (i think that's what their multi effects are called) are really good. I have a Korg AX1500g that is decent, but the Boss pedals are basically indestructible. The amp modeling and distortion on those things normally suck though. If you look closely, you can see the upper corner of...

fl?yd how do you find dod pedals? I've been wanting to try some of their generic effects like compressors and stuff since they're cheaper than boss and other 'retail store' brands at my local store but I've heard mixed reviews about them. You won't find them now. Digitech bought out DOD and now the...

I'm only listening through laptop speakers but it sounds like a heavily-distorted P-Bass or at least a distorted neck pickup.

Re: Quit drinking and can't seem to pick up the guitar

Yep, im another one with this problem. I quit drinking about 4 months ago, and it seems like that is the same point in time where i stopped picking up the guitar.

The only thing I've found really fun about slap is that you can fuck around with drum rudiments. That's why I want to learn it, so I can add a percussive quality to my playing.

I've never played too much slap. I learned some RHCP and some Wooten and whatever else just to see if I could do it. Other than that I usually fuck around with octaves because it's fun. Slap the G on the E string and then pop the G that's one octave above it on the D string. Then slap twice and pop...

Set your action as low as you can to where you're just high enough that you can't hear fret buzz through the amp.

The intro to YYZ is in 10/8. Honestly, the best way to deal with them is to internalize them. And remember that phrases are generally in groups of 3 or 4. That makes it a lot easier to count and feel.
