up ko lang.... viva BAFM

uy sir sammy. tagal ko ng di nadalaw sa shop. brian here

[moHaWk]

oi sir brian musta!!! uu nga tagal mo na di napunta... busy?

[psychic_sushi]

Oo nga po eh. ok ung Crystal. laki ng inimprove ng tone ^^. pag nagka budget Metal Core nmn
 Para pam patayan na 

yeah! we've found metal to be best for humbuckers, gives clarity and that added chug chug. it is also great for adding woodiness to active pickups.

[BAMF]

Yup. Had one shipped out to Pangasinan, and two were purchased and are to be brought to Mindoro.

The Scalarizer Fever has really spread !

[Mardk]

can you scalarize my amp? a boston m6. ^__^

sure can! BAMF scalarized his fender stage and it just throws the sound into the atmosphere. first time i got a complaint from a neighbor in history, dude. He also had a yamaha jx-25 that he scalarized, got rid of the boxiness.

  Oo nga po eh. pero mdyo nag dadalawag isip na nga po ako eh kc mas nag ok ung tunog nung nagpakabit
  ako ng crystal core. ok lang po kaya kng isa pang crystal core???
  kc mas trip ko na matalim ung 2nog kesa ma bass. pero wag nmn ung manipis?

you could experiment, but if you really want brightness, i suggest you mess with your eq settings

[BAMF]

Wee !!! I'm going to the Blue Rats gig again tonight to put another tootsie roll in another of Idol Yatpu's axes .

  blak ko nga po itry ^^ ung dalawang crystal.
  tnx po sir

sir balitaan mo kmi ha.

[jasoncruz_rocks]

a question popped into mind..
how does this prevent guitars with the same core sound the same? 0_o
(if the question was asked na, im just tamad )

[BAMF]

Just in the same way that the same pickups will sound differently on different guitars.

As you know, tone is a composite of many things: wood, workmanship, hardware, pickups, strings etc.

A similar core scalarizer will sound different on different guitars as well because these factors can never be replicated on another guitar. In effect, it's also like saying that each guitar is really unique and tonally different from the next. Yep...even on anal-quality-controlled japanese guitars.

[BAMF]

Wee !!! Got to scalarize Idol Yatpu and Butch of the Blue Rats guitars last night ! Weee !!! Even Whitey wants his harp bullet mike scalarized (and parkerized, and chromed as well).

Looks like the Blue Rats will soon be an all-scalarized band .

Also got some media mileage. Articles on the scalarizer will be coming out in 2 publications. Can't pre-empt, but yeah, wait na lang till it's published

[psychic_sushi]

Damn!

I wish I was there to see and jam! My out of town trip really wore me out.

But I intend to resurface when my strat is ready, and to give Bluegem's customized no.1 baby a testdrive 

[pedge22]

Sir BAMF Please help. I have the metal scalarizer already, problem is pano ko sya ikakabit d2 sa Ibanez S470? Medyo malayo po location ko Mindoro pa  kaya nagpabili nalang ako kay Epoy Martinez if you know him... Pano po ba connection parallel o series? may polarity ba? may kulay kc ung wires nung scalarizer.      

[fraudulentzodiac]

Chief, question lang. Ok lang ba lagyan ng tatlong scalarizer ang isang gitara?hehe.

[psychic_sushi]

(For BAMF) yup! you can, if that tickles your fancy 

[fraudulentzodiac]

 

thanks sir anton, gusto ko i-try yung organicore but i don't want to take the crystal and metal out of my guitar kaya ko tinanong kung pwede yung tatlo hehe.

great, as soon as things get less hectic I'll get the organicore!

[BAMF]

S470...disconnect the wire from the pickup to the volume control. Reconnect that wire back through the scalarizer. Think of it lang as a wire. You can insert it anywhere in the signal path.

Sa yo pala yung papuntang Mindoro .

[BAMF]

Chief, question lang. Ok lang ba lagyan ng tatlong scalarizer ang isang gitara?hehe.

Nasubukan ko na. Not recommended. Ang gulo ng tunog.

Eh kaw, kung fan ka ng magulong tunog hehehe.

Teka lets qualify that. Yung tatlong scalarizer na sabay-sabay (crystal, metal and organicore) gumagana, magulo ang tunog. Pero kung switchable naman you can choose 1 or 2 scalarizers (like in the case of my RJ PRS) to go together. Yun, maganda ang combinations na makukuha mo. I havent tried using the hydrocore tho with others, but crystal metal, metal-organic and crystal-organic are good combinations.

Thanx Sir BAMF. Try ko mamaya pag uwi ko.
