Lord help me, I'm walking in to a music store of my own volition.

ajroach42@retro.socialAnd they had so little inventory I kind of regret the trip. Just completely picked over.
Real shame.

ajroach42@retro.socialAlright, that an hour of guitar playing. I'm going to go order some gear online and have lunch.

ajroach42@retro.socialAlright. Gear ordered.
I'm gonna sound like 10 people at once.
I'm gonna sounds like a city full of people.
I'm gonna sound like an army of slightly out of tune children who have just learned some power chords.
It'll be great.

ajroach42@retro.socialI got a bass amp, a less aggressive octave fuzz (the one I have is fuckin' sick, but it isn't subtle. I want something that can be subtle occasionally), and a regular fuzz. I'll pair this with occasional use of my very aggressive octave fuzz, my regular (spring reverb) amp, and a chorus pedal.
The way I have it mapped out in my head it will give me all the sounds of a fairly clean normal guitar, a second much fuzzier guitar, a fuzzy guitar at an octave up, a bass guitar (one octave down), and a bass guitar two octaves down, spread over two amps.
I'll also retain the ability to also make everything sound like it's on fire.

ajroach42@retro.socialAnd I get to do with all with a pretty tiny pedal board in the grand scheme of things. (Like 3 pedals most of the time, 4 at most, and 90% of the work is coming from two of them.)

ajroach42@retro.socialTo be clear, none of this will make me sound better, but it will make me sound more.
Lots more.
A gaggle of power chords.
And I was able to do it all with giftcards, so I'm not out of pocket for any of it.

ajroach42@retro.socialI'm working on a cover of the Spongmonkey's We Like The Moon: https://yt.drgnz.club/watch?v=I9MZNEXrElw
Well... that's not a fair thing to say. It's not like the song is complicated or anything (it's only even really a song if you squint.)
I'm working on a rendition of We Like The Moon that sounds like the kind of song a couple of teenagers who wanted to be the white stripes would have written in 2006 (because, let's be real, that's barely not what I am.)
