Zombi Dreams

Lately, I've been dreaming of zombies. It happened two days ago, and the memory is still fresh as brains in my mind.

The outbreak had occurred, and I was in some kind of housing development. There was a grocery store, a theater, and some nice houses near the mountains. Anyway, the development had been doing okay, fighting off zombies working together, but slowly, the zombies made it through our defenses. My SLF was there with me, as was some of my friends. We went to another friends house to see how they were doing. It was a girl and two guys, whom I had never met, but somehow was friends with. They seemed okay.

We went back to our house, which was already boarded up. We made sure we were safe, and rested for a while. I got up after a short rest and looked out the peephole. The town was overrun. nearly everyone was a zombie. I could see people getting overtaken by herds of slow moving zombies. It was truly scary. My aunt woke up and was out on the roof, trying to do something. Sure enough they had her. I couldn't help her. It sucked, but she had been trying to do something that wasn't all that important that I would not have ever done, so I took it as a lesson learned. I knew I was the only one who had the potential left to save survivors, so my SLF and I went back to the friends house. Her two male friends were eaten, and it was just her. She was crying, it was sad. We gave her a hug, and had tea.

Then I woke up.

New Pedal - New Plan

Phasing is one of my favorite effects. I love it in guitar, and use it on bass, vocals and synths lots. For the past few years I have been using the Boss PH-3 phaser. I noticed early on that it scooped my mid frequencies really bad as soon as I would turn it on. I constantly compensated for it by just turning up, but once i would kick it off, I would be too loud. This is a very shitty feature if you want any versatility. I never buy pedals for myself, so I figured I would splurge on this. After weeks of research, the MXR Phase 90 won on all levels. (Dean & Gene Ween's favorite pedal)

I was ready to pay a decent amount but ended up getting this MXR Phase 90 off of ebay for only $45. This pedal retails for around 70-120 depending on where you are, so I figured this was a pretty good deal. I had read about a modification online that seemed to be the way to go. Reviews said that the pedal had the same problem that the Boss pedal has, unless you do the mod, so I figured I would try my first major gear mod. I was so excited to do it I forgot to test it out to see if it even worked before opening it up.

The process involved removing the backplate, unscrewing everything, and taking the circiut board out of the casing. From there, I had to cut out three transistors/resistors. I was more than freaked out by using nail clippers to cut out the R28, C11, and C12 nodes, but I trusted the internet and went ahead with it.

Holy. Shit. Mang.


This pedal sounds amazing. It's stellar. One knob= Speed. It's like running the signal across the bottom of a lake. The phase is deep enough, but not too deep, with not too much effect feedback. I cant do it justice, but I plan on doing a side by side comparison of the PH3 and Phase 90.


The new plan is to get another pedal board to spread out everything a little more. There's a couple other things I want, but for now, the rig is for the most part complete.
I also picked up a new 1TB firewire HD. It's now home to all my Itunes. Bad Ass.
