Post by: teleclem on March 18, 2012, 04:26:27 PM: I have a Behringer pedal that's broken here.. Must be 5 or 6 years old haha never bothered to have it fixed kasi not worth it.

But more on topic - a cheap acoustic that's abused beyond repair (unless you really want to, tas pilit yun)

Not my proudest moments really, nakakahinayang hahaha. But I was young and stupid back then and never really cared about guitars and stuff. Medyo petty pa nga ata yung reason ng mga yon :(

Post by: treblinkalovescene on March 22, 2012, 11:01:00 AM: My greatest instrument was my heart. Leaving my old band broke it. When your heart breaks, kaya bang isetup ni Micsis? Could Mang Max fill in the missing pieces? If the cracks in your heart are from the inside, could Yahoo! tear your guts open and fix you? En route to recovery, could Mahavishnu put you back in the loop? Could Tom teach me how to say "Freedom" in German? I don't know. The heart I had for the music I used to play, it's in a different place. I don't think I could get it back. LOLJK. /writer

I have a Boss HM-2 and a Boss RV-2, they both need fixing. Never had the time to take them to a repair shop. Technically dead. :( I loved those two.

Post by: marcus_gloom on March 22, 2012, 09:56:33 PM: RIP my uncle's long dead Ovation USA deep bowl acoustic,

She met an ultimate tragic end in the hands (and feet) of my cousins after surviving many accidents and [gooey brown stuff] repairs, years and years ago.

Memories of her chunky but very comfy neck and smooth frets haunts me.

I learned how to play with that sweet one...

Post by: mike_faster on March 22, 2012, 11:53:10 PM: I remember my zoom gfx5 which i begged my parents to get me when i was a kid. It was my only effects unit during high school and college! When i got a 2nd hand boss gt8, it was shelved. then i started using separate stompboxes. haven't used it for a good 4 years, i think.

my cousin started playing guitar and i wanted to give him the zoom, but when i tested it, it doesn't turn on anymore. :-( i used another adapter, still no. haven't bought it to any repair guy yet, hopefully it's a quick power jack fix though. i told myself before i'm never going to sell it, now, i wish i did!

Post by: markcasq on March 24, 2012, 12:42:16 PM: My first electric guitar - my RJ strat which my mom bought when I was in 3rd yr high school (with matching Hot Cabs amp and neon green cable). That was the guitar where I learned it all! One time, a had it setup at RJ (when I was in college na I think), and the tech tightened the neck backplate too much that it made the wood crack. The guitar was never the same since then and it only got worse. I brought it to guitar hospital, but Ari said it cannot be fixed anymore (kung baga sa ospital: ginawa na po namin lahat...), so we decided to just let it go and sell the Floyd Tremolo. If it wasn't for that tech who broke it, I might still be using it until today. R.I.P. RJ strat! :-(
