    Which Pedals Belong Where? Or Dont Belong Where?

    As a starting point, I use the order that is put on an amp modeler pedal I got for xmas. Since I hate it and only use it as a noisegate, I won't name it in case some of you here use it, though some of you may figure it out by the effects order. I have found that when I abide by the order in...

    Guitar amp poll

    Yup! He played Randall Solid State, as have a lot of Bands. Now, I'm a Mesa guy, to me there is no alternative, but I will tell you that I think Randall makes the best sounding solid state I have ever heard. Mind you they are mainly for metal. So they are kind of one trick ponies. But they do...

    Drop C tuning (string gauge for bass)

    Is that what most bands that play drop C do? I hate to spend the cash as I mostly spend my money on on guitar stuff. But that might be the better route. For guitar I have an old ESP I bought back in the 80's I use for standard and drop D tuning. For drop C I have a Les Paul Studio. The only...

    Drop C tuning (string gauge for bass)

    Ok, So I am looking into doing some drop C tuning stuff. I mainly play guitar but I have a bass I record with that I have not changed the strings in forever. Still sounds decent though. But I have no idea how bass string gauges go, or what gauge I currently have on my bass. I do notice that...

    Which Amps Am I Overlooking?

    And I just double checked the price, it is 1999.00 for the head. So minus the tax it is in your price range (sort of).

    Which Amps Am I Overlooking?

    Yup, 4 completely independant channels with 4 seperate eq's, 4 seperate gains, and 4 seperate volumes. You can still buy it new. This amp will be around for a while, I can assure you of that. You can get it in a head or combo. Combo comes in 112 or 212...

    Which Amps Am I Overlooking?

    The Budda superdrive 30 is also a great amp, but if I am not mistaken it shares the eq. Tone wise though, it is awesome! I know every time someone posts their max price another guy comes up with one just above his max price. So here I go. I know you have already combed through Mesa, but the...

    Mesa Boogie question

    I don't know of any website, but there customer support is excellent and you can probably get that info buy calling them. I have seen guys on the Boogie Board (you guessed it, website for mesa owners) as this very same question and the response has always been to give mesa a call.

    Who Destroyed Metal?

    Add another for Nirvana. I've felt that way for years. I figured there would be a selection for them before I clicked on the thread. I don't blame them, but there success changed the course of metal and brought on a wave of music that lacked talent when it came musicians. It seemed anybody...

    New Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier But.....

    I have a mesa dual rectifier road king combo. Let me give you two words of advise. Be patient! The controls on these things are much different then every other amp out there. First of all, Mesa's have all tube distortion, no clipping diodes. What that means is that you need to take it easy on...

    new or used tube amp

    First, go to some music stores and try out a bunch of different tube amps to see what you like. There are crappy tube amps as well. Given your price range, you probably want to look used. Craigslist is a great place to start. Nice thing about going used is if you get the amp and don't like...
