    Tube amps on a budget...

    +1 for you. Metallica suck! (they're competent musicians their sounds are horrible to me)... Tom Petty(saw him year before last) and the black crowes(going to see them in sept) are tones i love to death.

    Orange is releasing a Tiny Terror Combo: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=kq8IshRNuis That sounds awesome, how much do you think it'll go for? And are the terrors pedal friendly?

    Tube amps on a budget...

    I would almost kill for a good vox tube amp. An ac30 or something, i love them, they sound great to my ears but are way too damn much money. I'm going to uni, so i can't spend money on that kind of stuff... I need a sugar momma!

    Lowering/raising saddles on trem

    Is it? Its the stock screws, i just changed the saddles, the screws that came with the saddles were a little short in my opinion. but oh well, the smallest key on the "imperial" I guess fits, so not all is lost. I'm just a little slow. haha.

    New Toy Day!

    Long and Mcdonalds finally got the double muff fuzz/od pedal I ordered. I tested in the store and was not very impressed but i've been playing around with the knobs(haha) and the single/double switch and its actually quite the versatile little pedal for only having two knobs, your volume control...

    Lowering/raising saddles on trem

    well i went to wal-mart today and bought an allen wrench set with .050 and got it home, took me five minutes to get it out of the plastic and then to put it to my saddles to find out its too small. Then I grab the 1/16th and its too big. >.< Why does the guitar god hate me?

    Guys; I appreciate the posts and the suggestions but can't we have a separate thread for the pissing contests? I mean it amuses me to see a bunch of people e-fighting but bloody hell why can't we be friends? WHY CAN"T WE BE FRIENDS! I know you work for the CIA but why can't we be friends?

    Frettinghand joints getting old. :(

    that's got to be the worst. The mind is willing but the body isn't able. I crack my knuckles far too often out of nerves and boredom, its a hard thing to train oneself not to do. Has anyone tried that lakota joint care balm stuff? that might help ease pain.

    Tube amps on a budget...

    That sounds like it might be alright, but is there a larger range? I like playing a little dirtier aswell, can it handle good gain-distortion?

    Tube amps on a budget...

    daddy's seems cool. Have any of you tried the crate Palomino V's? I have never been impressed but the sounds on youtube seem like they're alright, if they sound that good inperson i'd be willing to drop cash on that ugly thing. haha

    Tube amps on a budget...

    I also ruled out the epiphone valve, or any other epiphone amp as they suck. I'm sorry i don't like them. And the blackheart too.

    WOW, guitar center is worst than i thought

    so then its our generations fault for raising us badly! It's vacant nuturing of our parental units that caused us to be so ill-mannered and half-witted. (Mind you I'm one that knows my P's & Q's) We have escaped the fault of our illwill!

    The Traynor YCS100 http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Traynor-Custom-Special-100H-100W-Guitar-Amp-Head?sku=481158 I don't have much experience, but I've played this a couple times @ the local music store and it is fun to play with and has quite a few options that would make it worth the...

    Compressor Pedals.

    There's so many tube amps to choose from. The Traynor YCS50 made me cream myself, and i was looking at the carvin site, they have what looks to be some killer tube amps. 5 tubes in most of those things! the peavy windsor is a nice little amp too. I'll give the mxr super comp a try anyways...

    Compressor Pedals.

    its a traynor DG30D i chose it over the FM65R. I don't really want to afford over 399 for a new amp as I am not a gigging musician as of yet.

    Compressor Pedals.

    sweet, that's what i wanted to hear, but do you have a compressor to suggest? And i look at keeping this amp for awhile because if i can't make it sound good through this, well then I shouldn't be playing.

    Compressor Pedals.

    well I play through a solid state so I'm unsatisfied with the clarity of the clean, and the punchiness of lighter overdrive/distortion through it. If it helps in these departments then I'll fiddle till i find interesting sounds that work. I generally play folk/rock-rock-blues-alt-rock etc. I'm...
