Topic: First collab with BGD & NGD arrived (7 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Hey Gang!
I started a poem in the poem section, it sat one day and became the song the next. Had some stuff come up and it was an easy fit to finish the words. Showed it to BGD on FB messenger, and 15 min later he had an arrangement written out for me and a scratch track. At his req, its not being posted. but I hope I can play it as great as he does.
He said it was his first collaboration in years! And it just went so smooth. It was also up his ally being a bluesy song. Not my standard METALIZER deep and dark stuff. LOLOLOL 
I asked him was it a 12 barr and he said yes but no IV chord LOL. So it looks like the Metalizer has to remember how to get slow.
IN other news My Rondo 12 string got here yesterday. Posted to FB but will put a couple pictures here.

They clearly were going for the Rickenbacker look, but with a lot smaller price tag. I have to ask: would you consider the Agile a step-up from your Danelectro?
YEP IT IS!! like I said, and joey can give a first hand opinion, but from all I see and see on E bay and reverb, there are A LOT of the dano's for sale.
Looked on youtube and there are no vids of this particular model from Rhondo. So Ill check it out of the box and after set up. doing vids for each.

Her reply was "OK I get it. Guitars Guitars Guitars".

Yes, Yes I did it again
https://www.rondomusic.com/product10151.html
I have been looking for a good used electric 12 string for a while. What I find is either junk or way expensive.
So doing the budget minded thing I looked once again at the Danelectro and the Agile. Both comparable in price within 20 bucks.
The Agile:
Vintage P90 pickups for that classic "twang"
Semi-hollow mahogany body and single crescent-shaped opening
22 fret maple set neck with ebony fret-board and graphite nut
By popular request, position markers are located on the side of the neck, not on the fretboard
Jumbo 2.7 mm frets and a 13.7" (350 mm) radius neck for fast play
Tune-O-Matic bridge with 12 individual saddles
Die-cast Grover tuners with 18-1 ratio for ultra fine tuning
Vintage cream colored binding on body, neck, and headstock
Chrome pickguard
One volume control and two tone controls help you find your sound
Stop-bar tailpiece transfers string vibration to the body of the guitar and produces superior sustain
Octave style stringing
Measurements
Overall length, including the strap button: 42"
Scale length: 24 3/4"
Width of the neck at the nut: 1 3/4"
Width of the neck at the 22nd fret: 2 3/16"
Thickness of neck at the first fret: 11/16"
Width of body at the widest point: 13 1/4"
Body thickness at edge: 1 3/4"
Weight: only 9 pounds!
COST $459.95

Number of frets: 21
Fully adjustable 12 string bridge
2 lipstick® pickups

Peace + Separation = A peaceful separation?
Or so it’s said.
Truth be told,
The two are not an easy segregation.
No longer do we drink from the same fountain
Never did we reach the top of that mountain,
All the while we tried to kick the snow away,
As it stuck further and further up our legs.
The weight so heavy none wanted to bare
So now we meet,
Not wanting to care
Just get it done, even if it’s not fair.

BUT....... If you can make a chordiestock or a virtual campfire, you will hear it. lolol It is one of my standards. Written by a friend of mine way back in 84/85 I added 3 chords and have not changed it since

Thanks, Beamer ... and I'm right with you on the Bugera's, for a nice chunky sound. They really do rival Peavey in every way.
Where they don't shine as brightly (to my ears, anyway) is in the clean dept. I tried a Bugera V22 Infinium and liked it a LOT, but it wasn't quite as responsive as the H&K, especially when I played my Gretsch hollow-body through it. And the H&K head is exactly the same price locally as the V22 combo, and I already have a compatible 2x12 cab I built for the Peavey a couple years ago.
Ahhhhh ok
I only have the V 5 as a combo and a Berhinger 60W 1x12. when I play "clean" im usually always "wet" with a compressor sustainer and usually chorus reverb and delay. sometimes phase.
Im thinking if you tried the head units not the combo, it might sound better. Plus if your want more chime .... tube change. I don't know who Bugera has making their tubes, but the Tungsol and VJ tubes in the power section make a heck of a difference. + in the pre-amp section the Mesa does make a big diff. and the V stands for vintage, Maybe you want to try a modern like the 333 or 6565 as the cleans on my Tri-Rec are very nice. ill make you a sample with a dry clean signal on my Tri-Rec. are you using a Strat / single coil or a humbucker?
check out the vids on the T50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_cont … 0azAARDJxw
and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB4ZkbC-oCs
the second one is more indepth as its a owner review. @ 4:00 in he goes to the clean channel

Re: Amazing Amp Test Drive (6 replies, posted in Electric)
It may not be a H&K but find a store with a Bugera selection. The V55 is very nice, my V5 is really great, and my Tri-Rec, Well you all know how I love that! Take a stroll around here:
https://www.bugera-amps.com/Categories/ … ans(en|en)
Honestly for the price, you just cant really go wrong. Ya want HEAVY go tri rec or 6262 (peavy 5150 clone) or 333. Lunch box? They have them. I have stood behind this brand for a long time and it has not let me down.
Or save and save for the H&K
