So we had this new cleaner come round yesterday for an 'interview'

For example I am not really a dog person and there was a short time where this neighbour would take her dog out whilst all Lycra'd up and she'd always be walking past and say hello as I arrived home. So the one day I decide to give the dog a stroke my wife comes round the corner. :hehe: Bad timing.

I'm assuming 'give the dog a stroke' is a euphemism?

THREAD HIJACK ALERT.
I will purchase a new amp at some point.
Fender Blues Junior or Vox AC15?

:cloud9: It's lovely. I am making do with my current set up until I move place which will have to have an area I can play guitar a little bit without worrying about disturbing people.

Not to harp on about the same old thing this is one of the things I like that my canadian relatives have. They have space to do stuff like like this. My uncle has a whole set up in the basement and can play properly without any worries.

Hmm. Good luck with that. The only time I turn up loud is in a rehearsal studio, though one way to get a nice overdriven sounds at low volume is to use pre-amps to massively overdrive the amp. I used to chain a couple of pre-amp pedals into my HiWatt to get a nice valve distortion on the bass at very low volume.

I mainly use software at the moment. Mainly Amplitube and Guitar Rig 5 for software they actually come up with some really good sounds. Amplitube has deals with Marshall, Orange etc to give a virtual version of their amps. What I do like about it I can play with all different settings and effects without having to purchase a million pedals. It's much better than I ever thought it would be.

Though nothing would beat playing through a real amp. I am thinking of hiring a rehearsal space just for jamming. I can split it with my mate.
