‪@Stringjoy‬ bass strings

I am looking forward to trying the set of Rangers on my Dingwall D-Roc. I typically use the Signatures but I needed longer string length for this specific bass.

Here is a secret from Scot over at ‪@Stringjoy‬

The Broadways 12/52 also double as a great set of acoustic guitar strings.

This is another great set of ‪@Stringjoy‬ strings. I had a set on my Telecaster for 3 months. They took a beating and still sounded great!

Did you know?

‪@Stringjoy‬ makes flat wound guitar strings? I had Scot Marquart on The Tone Lounge Podcast a while back, and he had dropped this info during the episode. Any of you play Flattley wound strings?

If you follow my channel, you probably know that I play ‪@Stringjoy‬ strings exclusively for the past 3 years. Well, now they hooked me with these killer picks.

Today’s episode is all about the Peavey 5150 combo. Many people have no idea that despite this amp not being the most popular, it is one of the most important in the lineage.

My band mate and good friend introduced me to the green .88mm Dunlop pick around 2008. I played those exclusively until I tried the white .70mm Dunlop.

I recently discovered that ‪@Stringjoy‬ picks and will be using them from now on!

This is my 2024 Fender Professional II Stratocaster. It's a rather strange guitar.

First off, this is a Canadian exclusive, in this gorgeous red color with black pickguard, black head stock, ebony fretboard and it came with Fender Noiseless pickups.

I've tried two different sets of single coils in this guitar, and it just sounds "zingy" for a lack of technical term. The only thing that sounds good is those noiseless pickups.
I don't get it! lol

Anywho, it's a great playing instrument and looks killer but I have not found the right pickups for it yet.

I'd be lying if I said that I didn't love a good Strat. I'd go so far as saying that I may be developing a bit of an addiction for them.

Got this one all cleaned up, action adjusted, and installed a new set of pickups. Absolutely killer axe!
