Re: The story of Noiseferatone - steel Jazzmaster: It's here ! Pics + Soundclips

[Slow-Pop]

did you have to use the the geiger counter on noiseferatone?  because that guitar looks nuclear hot!

[eupat]

*PICS* !!!!!

[k o y l]

SHE'S BAAAAAAAACK !!!
...and my WMD Geiger Counter is here too... so are my Devi Ever paintings. .. Out of topic I know but I'm so excited, I just can't hide it...   

Shit Loic it's like christmas for you! 

Yes..except Santa Claus was wearing blue & yellow clothes.. 

did you have to use the the geiger counter on noiseferatone?  because that guitar looks nuclear hot!

Yes I tried that this afternoon.. ..but to tell the truth, the Geiger Counter destroys everything so I guess the guitar you plug in it doesn't matter ! 
But it's a crazy little box and it will take me forever to master it. 

*PICS* !!!!!

They're coming tonight.. 

[k o y l]

Here they are:













The pickups sound just as I expected: The neck is very close a JM pickup to my ear.. not the same but the differences are difficult to explain but it has what I like in a neck JM pickup so that's great.
The bridge pickup is in between a JM pup and a P90 I think: focused like a P90 but clear like a JM pup..
..well enough words, you'll hear them soon..

I forgot to mention that LoÏc intended to make me a surprise by swapping the covers for chrome wide range like he had... but the holes were the other way around .. too bad but I like them in black too, it kinda pursue toward the spirit of 70s Japanese or German offsets.

[Flurko]

Those part black covers are going very well with the trem arm and switch tip .
That's really one wonderful guitar. Lovin the idea of a piezo in the body.

[JazzBlaster]

      man I'm tempted!

[analogsystem]

That guitar is over the top!!!!

I have a similar pickup that I got from Lindy Fralin called the Twangmaster.  He also makes the p-92.  They are the same design where it's a true single coil, split like a p-bass pup in the case of a humbucker.  He does them in all chrome or gold and after talking to him on the phone, he'll make whatever you want.....alnico magnets (twangmaster), bar magnet with screws (p-92) and wind them however much you want.  They aren't cheap, but they sound incredible.  I think those pups you have are the same thing so I know they sound great!  Congrats!

Looks great Loïc!

I love the look of those pups - if they sound nice I'm very tempted on a couple....... Let's hear teh soundz!

[k o y l]

Oh yeah, they sound awesome. I only played the guitar for about 3 or 4 hours in total but they have growned on me yet.. The great thing is they really covers all territories: full yet clear on the neck pup, the middle position like any position sounds a bit like the neck pup with less mids and more highs and the bridge pup sounds a bit like the SD Jerry Donahue I have on my tele with more bottom and body.. really really great..

I'm preparing demos but in a form I didn't try before.. 
And I recorded 2 improvs with it with lots of piezo action in them..
You'll hear that pretty soon.. 

[k o y l]

Ok so my first intention was to record little demos as I usually do...

...but I thought of something else, something that would give to hear AND to see at the same time...

...And here it is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyJAatQxhRY

I hope YouTube bad quality will not go too much in the way of reading what it has to.. 

Of course now that it's done, I'm thinking I should have make a little effort to play a bit better.. next time...  :-\ ..so please concentrate on the tone rather than on the playing..
