GASSING for a new Dyson

[kmon]

Add the lack of attachments to the list of issues I have with Rickenbacker...

One thing the Ric will pick up that the Dyson won’t is RF interference. In fact, I’m sure the Dyson must put out a considerable amount of RF. (Memories now of my mom vacuuming on Saturday morning during cartoons and causing the TV to become unviewable.)

The boost switch is rock’n’roll for removing pet hair.

Dysons are great vacuums, but Ric's are not.

I bet a Dyson sounds much better through a Tube Screamer than a Ric.

 

[Sam Evans]

I had a Dyson once. Sounded terrible through my Fender Rumble.

I keep repeating the anecdote of a Black Metal guitar player who was sculpting for the perfect tone. One day he heard it, had a Eureka! moment, stormed out the door, only to find his mother vacuuming the place.

my 90s Black and Decker just [removed] the bed so I might consider one of these Dysons

i bet it sucks

 

[Esteban Garcia]

Confirms my priors: Rickenbackers suck and Dysons suck even harder

I've bought four Ricks since the 70's and they were okay as basses go and I ended up selling all , but I would never ever let my Dyson go !

 

[ProbablyTooLoud]

Are boutique vacuums more than excellent fit and finish?

 

[roccobass]

Rics are much more efficient at vacuuming out your bank account than Dysons.

I played a Dyson for a couple of years and loved it until the battery died right in the middle of my vacuum solo... so embarrassing! Why doesn't Dyson make a passive vacuum or least a model with an active/passive switch?

 

[Spectre Gunner]

I played one of these way back in the day long before the wheel was invented but like a fool I sold it. Today, they're worth thousands $$ if you can find one. However, you can buy a replica with a Journeyman Relic job but they're just not the same.

Best vacuum for metal??

 

[Hurricane Jimmie]

So Anyway, to complete the evaluation, you should use the Dyson in a band setting.
And the Ric does have an attachment if you activate the foam mutes.

The last time saw something similar to that design, I think it was on an episode of Commander Cody.
