True.

False. Though the guy likes expensive stuff, and shits on cheap stuff, I'd suspect most old pros would feel the same way ultimately, but that's not the gold to be gleamed from this page anyway. Lot's a great tips on miking and how to find your amp level, concepts on cabs (speaker excursion/cab involvement), how to approach using comps and EQs to get the right steady state level to tape if you're into that.

More than that, I think there's something to seeing the approach from start to finish with every random thought along the way, gives a certain perspective. And I find the the whole thing a damn funny read anyway.

It's worth noting that this page is actually a compilation of the guy's forum posts from a big thread, not actually intended to be a one stop reference, it's just that somebody thought it was good, so they compiled it and stuck it on their website.
