Sa DJ's Bibingkahan sa West Covina. :lol:
Seriously, kayong bahala. Phil, pauna ko lang, nangangapa pa ako dahil sa tagal ko nang hindi nag gigitara. I'm sure mapapahiya lang ako pero what the hey, haha! Meeting you guys would be very cool.
Wala akong alam gaano sa mga studios dito. Batang New Jersey ako talaga.

Bart,
magresearch ka kung anong studio ang nandyan. Okay naman sa aking isang Satuday noon....magkita sa DJ then after lunch proceed tayo sa studio. Pero kailangan magpareserve na tayo. We'll wait for Stratman anong masugest niya. Bring all your musical euipment so we can check each others stuff.  :D

Nag-check ako, walang branch ang Soun Arena sa West Covina. Ala din akong masyadong alam sa Covina, pasesyan na, hehe. Wala bang centrally located rehearsal place na marerentahan natin? Saan ba kayong lahat? Alam ko si Phil-San Fernando, BP-Rancho, ako-L.A., Bart-???, sino pa? Baka si C-D-F interesado? Tanong ko kung meron ng lisensya bara mag maneho. Baka gustong mag baho noon.

Isa pa, puro tayong gitarista. Drummer??? BT karaoke style na lang ba? pwede rin.

SUGGESTIONS???

stratman,
Ako din yung Bart, bro. Taga Union, New Jersey kami nung early years. Then lumipat kami ni Misis sa Chatham, NJ. Ayoko dun, puro hielo pag winter. Nakakabato.
I'll see what I can find around Rancho Cucamonga, Alta Loma, or Ontario. Pero malayo na to para ke Phil.

Bro, hindi ko alam kung ano ang situation sa West Covina. Namamalengke at kumakain lang kami dun. Kain lang ang dahilan kung bakit ko nasabi ang DJ. I guarantee an walang 'Eme' o 'Ene' na gangbangers dito sa Rancho Cucamonga. Isa sa pinaka tahimik na lugar ito ng L.A. suburbs (Actually, San Bernardino ang county namin). 30 minutes na lang ito from W. Covina from the 10 East, North 57 and 210 East Freeways.

No, not really.  I was there last May 2005, on official business.  Pag official business lang naman ako nagpupunta sa US. Otherwise, i don't have that kind of money to go there for pleasure.  Kung meron man, magbo-Boracay na lang ako!  8)

Stratman, can you check the schedule sa North Hollywood and Van Nuys kung may nagrenta na ba sa pinkaliit nilang studio for next Saturday?..kailangan bang magpareserve? ano ang minimum hours? pwede bang magdala ng pagkain sa loob.

VAN NUYS = 15'x20' = $18/ hour. Block of 3 hours
NOHO = 10'X12' = $16/ HOUR. Block of 3 hours.
Different places different sizes, different prices. What time do you guys want to get together? Can't schedule until we give them the time.

Smoking and drinking are not allowed inside. I guess we can bring some nick-nacks (chips, sodas, pandesal and STAR-MARGARINE, hehe) as long as we don't bring a whole feast (lechon is out of the question). We also have to clean up, of course, that goes without saying. We can just hide them in a bag. No one will know.

Backliners are available but feel free to bring your goodies. Backliners are crap there anyways. Mostly broken or dying amps so I suggest you bring your stuff.

Since it's just the 3 of us are we gonna have a BT to play with?

sayang walang bahista at drummer...di ba may drums tapos bass amp kasali sa rent?...what do you mean by backliners? Block of 3 hours....you mean minimum of 3 hours? so tig 1 hour each tayo.

I'm bringing two of my tube amps so okay din.

Stratman...which branch would be good ?...since you are giggin musician?
.....star margarine...thats funny....star rice is the best....pweh!!!!

Backliner means amps and drums ( 1 or 2 gtr amps, 1 bass amp, and 1 drums set ). Yup! Kasama na sa renta yon.

Yup! Block of 3 hours means minimum of 3 hours.

2 tube amps, man! That's great! What are your amps? Ako Fender Champ 12 tube amp lang, eh.

I've used the NOHO a couple of times in the past but have never been in the Van Nuys facility. I think NOHO is fine. Nice place. And since it's just the 3 of us, I guess the smallest room would be fine for us.

SWEET!!! Can you say "VAI"!!! Hahaha!!! That's cool! You should get a Carvin/Ibanez endorsement deal. What mod did your MTS3212? Who did it?

Is that a THD hotplate on top of the Legacy? Oh-oh, no castors, Tsk-tsk. Don't worry, I'll help you with carrying.

I used to have an X100B 1/2 stack with matching pair of their 2x12 cabs loaded with the 12" 100 watter British series speakers. That baby rocked! I also owned it's little brother, X60 combo. That was a great little amp, too. Used it alot with my (dare I say) disco/dance, yikes! Anyways, I still like the dirt channel of the X100B. Not too gainy but qith enough power. Boss OD-1 in front, that thing kranks like a mother f---er.

Can't wait to see you there. By the way, coordinate with BP what time you guys want to do this so I can set this up.

I changed all the power and preamp tubes and speakers......naka JJs 6L6GC tapos high gain preamp tubes.....the stock speakers were decent ....but I just love warm and fat tones...so I changed it to Celestion Vintage 30s taken from a Mesa 4x12 cab.......I can bring extra EL34s just in case you guys want to change the tone...if it's to bright for you and all.

Yes...a THD Hotplate...1 or 2 lang volume sa mga amps masakit na sa tenga....thats why I bought an attenuator....I also have a custom one on top of the other amp and it works really well.

okay....I heard a lot about that X100B amp...sabi nila kayang kaya ang heavy metal tone....well Vai used it sa movie Crossroads.

I'll e-mail Bart about what time.....I'll keep you informed. :D

You might want to watch out for that hotplate. They didn't call it HOTPLATE for nothing. I hear it can shorten the lifespan of your tubes. But hey, that's a small sacrifice for a great tone. Plus, It's not that hard to grab them JJ's here anyway.

Yeah, let me know what time you guys want to set it up. Later!

That's oks. Ako nga 12 watts Fender lang, eh. Kaya yan, hahaha!!! Kung may problema, marami namang gamit si Phil. Hiram na lang, ano, Phil? Hehe. Worst comes to worst meron naman silang gamit  doon kasama sa rentals. Not the best but loud enough to be heard.
