Nanglebadger Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Inspired by the new Members other rides section! Perhaps a sticky thread mods???? What else do you do with your time and hard earned cash (other than drink and women [and felchin/molesting] before someone says it ), for example i know a few of you play the decks (Streetracer, Geo).Heres what i spend my funds on when Project Extreme Ep allows for it. Firstly is my guitar collection, from left to right:ESP V350, one of the last two that were available from the UK distributor before they were discontinued to make way for the Mustaine DV8 signature series. Standard tuning. Floyd Rose lockin trem and EMG-HZ pick-ups. My favourite guitar, I love this thing to pieces, totally spotless top to bottom, pure frickin Metal!Takamine Dual Semi acoustic, only just purchased this from a friend this week, 8yr old, played approx. 3times, spotless. Standard tuning.Epiphone Demon, my second ever guitar. Currently drop C tuning. Great guitar. Purchase inspired by Kirk Hammet's Jackson Randy Rhodes singiture guitar.Westfield Strat, my very first guitar. Standard tuning.ESP F250. D-d tuning. Floyd Rose locking trem, EMG-HZ pick-ups! So metal James Hetfield (Metallica) has one!I use a Boss DD-3 Digital Delay pedal, Boss CH-1 Super Chorus, Jim Dunlop Cry Baby Wah Wah pedal, and the mother of all distortion pedals in my view, a Danelectro Black Paisley Liquid Metal pedal w/ low octave function, and Marshall Amps.My bro also has a Tanglewood Starfire Les Paul guitar in black with gold hardware, and a Cort Curbow bass.And when i'm not tryin to melt the fretboards of that lot, i'm annoying the neighbours and giving myself blisters with my other baby, my drum kit! Again, set up for metal/thrash, a bit of rock and some blues too!The kit itself is a Premier Olympic kit, a kind of intro level number but it does the trick as im not giggin or recording or anything with it. Sittin behind it the entire set up from left to right consists of:Sabian AA 14" Rock Hi-HatsDadi drummers tambourineHeadliner cowbellSabian AAX 6" SplashPaiste 302 16" CrashSabian AAX 16" Metal CrashSabian AA 10" SpalshSabian AA 17" MediumThin CrashSabian AA 18" Rock CrashPaiste 302 14" Hi-Hats on remote boom.Sabian AA 20" Rock RidePaite 302 20" RidePremier double bass pedal for pure metal!!!!Yamaha DD-12 8pad electronic kit w/amp (for Rammstein-esque sound effects baby!!!) Carbostick carbon drumsticksOH...and a big ass fan to cool off!!!....ok ok its actually for those glam-rock spandex, make up, big hair cheeeeeeese moments when i toss my hair in the breeze... yeah right!!!...my hair aint long enough ;) Enjoy, just thought i'd generate some discussion for us gang. Lets hear and see what else you all get up to!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wylo Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Nice guitar collection! I've started learning a few months ago, picking it up pretty quickly Heres my main interest aside from my car and shagging of course: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Nice guitar collection! I've started learning a few months ago, picking it up pretty quickly Heres my main interest aside from my car and shagging of course:That was my main hobby until i was knocked off my bike by an articulated lorry. Trust me it hurt. I have only been on my bike a dozen or so times since and it happened 2 years ago. I spent a lot of money on my bike as well. I've still got it in my garage. I got it out the other days for the first time in about 9 month.now its the internet, badminton, goin to the gym. And Cars obviously. I fit sound systems to cars and do the bit of bodywork aswell.Im gonna start cycling again soon though. Really miss it. Bombing down an off road course used to give me such a rush.

Sparky Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Ever since a young age its been motors motors motors for me. Being brought up through a family with a background of rallying and motocross meant it was in my genes. Used to enjoy prepping my dads and uncles rally cars and watching them tear up the lanes around Wales. My dad and uncle also used to reace motox at a younger age and when i was 16 i had a crack.I can pick up things really quikly and i caught on to motox well and a year after having my first bike i had a crack at racing. Considering i had a bike that was nearly 12 yrs older than the other guys and a smaller budget i was really good. i did 2 races (welsh championship level) and gained a respectable 9th overall in my first event and a 6th in the 2nd Unfortunately the bike had to make way for the EP but i hope to get back into it soon Guess my old man and that have their selves to blame for the way i drive A few pics of me ridingLOL thats my old man egging me on Me doin a lil whip lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
