Klapesztor,
Spróbujmy naukowego podejścia do rozwiązywania problemów;
Czy buczenie zmienia się, gdy odwracasz się tyłem do wzmacniacza?Czy wypróbowałeś różne kable gitarowe i inny wzmacniacz, aby sprawdzić, czy buczenie nadal występuje?
Czy buczenie jest takie samo dla wszystkich trzech ustawień przełącznika wyboru przetwornika?😐Your words clearly needs more “C” ‘s and “W” ‘s in them.

I liked his first solo album. Some of About Face was okay (saw him that tour), Island was not bad. Rattle I didn’t jive with, but he’s F-ing David Gilmour with. ‘U”. We scum bucket Americans wouldn’t spell it like that.

that had to have been something
It was damn cool. It was where the SJ Sharks skate. The first time Patrick Moraz was on synths and keys. Everytime I saw them, Lodge, Edge (not The Edge thankfully), Hayward and Thomas were playing. The keys player changed. The first time The Fixx opened. Damn good. The second Chicago, the last time with the orchestra, I think it was just them.

Heard the other day Mike Pinder of the classic Moody Blues era passed away. They were so good and people slagged them.

Translated from Polish: I bought a new Gibson SG Bluberry Modern and it makes a humming noise. Has anyone had this problem?
Many have it could be a bad ground, but it also could be other issues. Start by seeing if you have a good ground every where you have metal on the guitar.

Didn’t Dolly Parton try to “bow out” of induction into the RRHOF? But she was inducted anyway. My wife really likes Dolly and I can listen to most of her stuff, but she is, and never has been, a R&R performer.
Jolene is killer. I own it on vinyl. I’ve been to the Country Music Hall Of Fame. I demand Yes be inducted. Steve Howe played pedal steel on Going For The One.

Technically Rhythm & Blues isn't Rock....but Rock wouldn't exist without it.... Rockabilly isn't Rock, but many acts are on the borderline between Rockabilly and Rock.
I said C & W isn't Rock before....and it isn't....but there are quite a few crossover acts.
I think trying to stay with the strict definition of "Rock & Roll" would be difficult.
I do not enjoy Rap....but it's what many of the younger generation prefer...so if you want the HOF to continue, they HAVE to cater to that music also.
Love Miles Davis, he’s in the Hall, but he’s a Jazz musician. His music is great, but it’s Jazz. I guess this concept is just to difficult for some.

Atcq would be a fair choice imo
they’re not rock but that’s become a moot point to an extent. They took hip hop from “my name is _____ and I’ve got to say” to an actual art form. I am not a rap guy. I hate most modern rap music. Low End Theory and Midnight Marauders are absolute classic timeless albums
To quote you “I’m not a rap guy” either. Screaming the F and N word to a backing track is not Rock or even music to ME.
And that’s exactly reason why the name needs to be changed. Take Rock out of there about, cause 50% of the acts in there are no longer rock, or blues where rock came from.

I see the price of a Gibson LP Modern Studio is now more than the price of the LP Classic I bought (new) three years ago.
You have to wonder when this will stop.
Never. They raise prices and people still buy em. If you don’t want them, don’t buy them, Gibson knows someone will.

I could only vote for one....and I voted for Peter Frampton.
Last year I voted for Warren Zevon.
I understand the HOF cannot ONLY be for Old-Time Rockers....it HAS to include music for the next generation...and the generaton after that.
I suppose they can manipulate the votes, (If it can be done in a US Presidential Election, it sure as heck can be done by a private museum), but the inductees SHOULD be selected by a vote of the members.
I think they do a pretty good job of getting new inductees, and a FABULOUS job of presenting the memorabilia there.
I went and it was okay. Lots of stage outfits and costumes. I won’t go ever again. What does MJB, and ATCQ have to do with rock, just saying’?
If they are gonna eventually let everyone in, just call it The We Let Anyone In Who Played Or Sang Music Hall Of Hame. The sports Halls don’t let other sports in. Ken Stabler will never be in the Hockey Hall. Rap is not Rock. Go make Rap Hall for those performers an induct them all day long.
When I was there, I got the fan vote on a computer. I voted for UFO and Thin Lizzy because they played rock.

Here is this years hall of shame inductees.
The 2024 class of inductees.
In the performer category, this year’s inductees are Mary J. Blige, Cher, Dave Matthews Band, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Kool & The Gang, Ozzy Osbourne and A Tribe Called Quest.
Jimmy Buffett, MC5, Dionne Warwick and Norman Whitfield were selected as the recipients for the Musical Excellence Award.
I guess all the really big ones are in already, now it’s a few stragglers and who ever else the old of touch selection committee lets in.

Honestly it's both the far-left and far-right that isn't doing this country any favors.
Seems like that’s is all there is these days. Uber zealous that worship an orange hairpiece, or the others who are blow a gasket if they are called the wrong pronoun.
I just learned that the state I live in, you can open carry your gun, and you do not need to go to any class or any training to get a concealed carry permit. I looked it up. It’s real, South Carolina is its own little weird country. Believe me I live here.

One’ I don’t play I let go. I’ve only got 2 now. Not much choice. Grab the RW 000 or Hog one. Still takes about 30 minutes do decide.

It's possible they should have spread it out over a period of time. What's perplexing to me is why they're only putting out somewhat semi-affordable Slash sigs now? I could be mistaken, but didn't the previous Slash signature models cost like $10K? Or has the value skyrocketed?
I could be way off though, because that's before I found this place. Before, I used to just... play. Didn't even know what a truss rod was. Good times.
Of course his EDS-1275 was over 10k and the Firebirds were not cheap either and then the amount and prices of all the LP’s escape me.

Here's why Gibson should hire me for marketing strategies:
Since the Jessica appears to have the same pickups as the other Slash signatures, chances are the novelty has slightly worn off for people who bought one of those - I'm positive they as well as the Jessica are great guitars (the pickups sound amazing in videos), but even me as a fanboy thinks it's been a bit much Slash stuff lately. Seeing as it's my belief that Gibson will release a Hetfield 1984 Explorer in a year or two, here's what they should have done.
They should not have signed Mustaine. I have nothing but respect for his playing - he took metal rhythm guitar one or three steps further, and in a very musical way. But fanboys of Mustaine - the prospective market - is going to buy a Jackson King V. His golden era was when he played that Jackson, and that will always be foremost in the minds of guitar-playing fans. He's bounced around since his alleged dispute with Jackson - ESP, Dean - and I cannot imagine they sold a whole lot off his name. At premium prices, like for his Gibsons, I'm afraid they won't be a big seller.
Gibson should have saved the resources to either focus on an earlier 1984 Explorer reissue with lots of marketing before embarking on the Slash campaign, or even better, put out a 1984 Explorer with lots of marketing in between the Appetite Amber, November Burst, Victoria and the (limited?) Anaconda Burst, and the release of the Jessica. The new Standards (the 50s/60s) must have revived the company's resources, so slower and steadier would have been a viable option. I believe it would have made a larger profit, and kept the Gibson name in ever higher esteem.
Also, there's people's means to actually buy these guitars to reckon with. I daresay most who bought one of the Standards, maybe even a Slash signature model too, do NOT have the means to spend that kind of money on a guitar again for the foreseeable future.
I almost wet my pants reading that.
To much Slash, how dare you!
