I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you're into it and that's specifically what you want to play. It takes mountains of time and obviously a correct technique, but it is doable. I can't get into the whole speed guitar thing anymore, lost interest and speed many years ago.

i learnt on a 35 year old masaru kohno japanese/spanish acoustic....

picking was a no no

fingerpicking = uber

i ended up playing my electrics like the spanish, without a pick. my fingers paid the price... i can simultaneously play bass and lead on a single guitar but double picking and hammeron hammer off is still beyond me

Never too late to learn Ben. Flat (modern guitar) fretboard + low action = easy speed.

Maybe u can give me some tips steve. where are ya ? pm me ya details

i have an 86 fender telecaster heavy metal edition. only problem is the floating trem is cactus so imma replace it with an EVH transtrem. i never learnt how to use a tremolo bar, so probably the fixed bridge gibson would be best for me but i'd like yr opinion.

i got an EH Big Muff Pi, sovtek version, (late sovtek so its pretty much accurate), a marshall JMP 1 preamp and a fender frontman 212R

and i got a c-port DSP24 with 8 channel real time multichannel recording @ 24 bit /192 khz

dubstep is cool!

as a dubstep producer you could probably adapt so many different styles of sounds - techno, prog, and real grimey stuff like that above^

i reckon its a pretty big movement of a genre and will always have a good following - like drum & bass. Rather than like some genres that die in the arse i.e breaks...

Unless, it becomes commercialised and overdone like breaks did, then things can head downhill!

[Luciano]

on another note; Anyone heading to BDO 2010???

'sold out' already. Hard to believe. I think its the usual promoter stunt so people to throw themselves at a second round release of tickets

I'm pretty keen to go, but not a ticket holder yet...

VERY keen to watch a set from this guy.

Sasha hasn't played in Adelaide for YEARS! He's playing all BDO's. Although I'd just hope they give him the closing set, and for at least 2hours - pretty pointless giving a progressive DJ (and the world's biggest) anything less!

[PREISS]

Yeah I just missed out on the last bdo tickets. one of my mates got one of the last few tickets. Went real quick

I like listening to some real heavy metal music too. Love the drumming etc.

Luciano. you get that name from the producer ?

[Luciano]

^ who, this dude: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Luciano -great techno/minimal DJ he is. Havent heard much of his production work

but nah, thats actually my real name on the birth certificate... named after my grandfather! i just go by Luke Luciano <insertsurnamehere> for ID's, accounts etc

[Dohmar]

RIP Pimp C

Pretty awesome Vinnie! thats one very technologically advanced piece of kit. i love the whole concept of digital - cdjs, serato, final skratch, midi controllers etc.

But, some of the features - who the hell is gonna use them in a live set! I think a lot of its there for the wow factor.

[Damo_R34]

only $2 grand? ill take 4.

[vinnie32GTS4]

yee they look pretty good bit outta my price range...lookin at getting 2x cdj1000 mk3's and a djm800 if i can get the cash if not looks like i'll be getting cdj400's and a djm 400

[Luciano]

haha Damo, this shit aint cheap hey. i actually expected them to be over 2.5k each.

1000's are still pretty pricey, unless you find some second hand for a good deal. But seeing as every trainspotting clubber wants to get their hands on a pair, good deals disappear quickly/are hard to find.

I'd personally go for the 400s brand new. Good unit.

Each to their own though! f**k digital

im pretty sure craig (PREISS) had/has his DJM400 up for sale too Vinnie

[vinnie32GTS4]

oooo might have to check that out
