Members Oyaji Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 Would love to know your thoughts on the differences and whether I should splurge on a fully polarized gibson, or should I go with the non-polarized agile copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Smilin' Bob Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 What the {censored} are you talking about? But Agiles are a good deal in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Anderton Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 Polarized guitar? I've heard of polarized cables, but I find it hard to believe that plugging a cable in one direction is going to sound different than plugging it in using a different direction.

Members Oyaji Posted June 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 sorry guys, but I'm an OJer that got lost. As for the general theme of high tech guitars, it's a great idea, but... Well you know guitarists. Our idea of high tech is a reverse wound middle pickup. But only if it was wound by a 70 year old grandmother that wound keif's first pickup, and the epitome of current high tech guitar technology is to recreate a guitar first introduced in 1950 all the way to figuring out what type of wear would be consistent with a guitar that has been played for 60+ years.

Members pedalboard Posted July 1, 2009 Members Share Posted July 1, 2009 Well you know guitarists. Our idea of high tech is a reverse wound middle pickup.

I think the creation of this new high tech guitar forum indicates that there are moves being made in the direction of applying modern digital technology in serious ways. Axe-fx, gibson's digital guitar, computer based stuff that guys like anderton are using, etc. I've heard some good stuff about guitar rig, too. I think your ideas about guitarists and technology are quite wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Anderton Posted July 1, 2009 Members Share Posted July 1, 2009 Well, I agree that by and large, guitarists tend to be fairly conservative. But this whole high-tech guitar thing is picking up steam, as the participation in this forum shows. The way I see it, high-tech guitar isn't about replacing traditional guitar any more than a synth replaces a piano...but about giving a whole lot more options. I can get sounds with Dark Fire I really can't get any other way, and I like 'em a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members elantric Posted July 6, 2009 Members Share Posted July 6, 2009 Just a FYI - There is an International standard for Screwdrivers.Some applications require a "positive" Screwdriver, while other applications require a "negative" screwdriver. Here's the "rest of the story" : "Positive" Screwdrivers = Phillips screwdriver "Negative" Screwdrivers = standard Blade screwdriver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
