Yeah...maybe. I don't buy the whole "we set out to build the first rock and roll amplifier" schbeal. In those days, Fenders were unbelievably expensive in the U.K. and Jim Marshall set out to sell direct copies of the bassman for cheaper. Why? To make money. The first few they made were direct...

works wonders on noisy door hinges...if only it did the same for noisy tube amps :D

The champs are cool, and I actually really like the newer version (champ 600), but he will be hard pressed to get modern punk rock tones out of one. Maybe the scxd could pull it off better, but not the good old champ--at least by itself. In defense of the all-tube crates, I would not say they...

Crate vintage club 50 or 30. Gainwise they will do anything up to hard rock, but not metal. My VC50-310 has three 10s, two channels with independent reverb controls on both, eqs and volumes on both, and is powered by a quartet of 12ax7s in the preamp and a quartet of el84s in the output section...

rofl hahahahaha. Just playin man

I've been waiting to order my solid ash trans honey w/ maple neck for a while now because he has been sold out! Can't wait until he gets the 2009s in. The xaviere teles have gotten great reviews. Make sure you report back on it if and when you get it.

I have a Sunn 2x15 cab too..h/e mine is "vintage":confused: 1999 Fender made :p. I have been trying to get rid of it too and don't know really know what it's worth. Mine is sorta beat up though. I had bought it for use with another bass head but had religiously planned on buying a 2000s sometime...

First things first, read your manual and observe all warnings on the amplifier in regards to the dangers lurking inside BEFORE you decide to open the amp. Opening/working on your amplifier can be potentially very dangerous, especially if you do not know what you are doing. It goes without saying...

Worst piece of gear I've ever owned was this bottom of the line nady wireless system back around 2000. Talk about sucking the life directly out of your live sound....

If you are still looking for a 1X12, here's one you may want to check out! I'm a fan of the orange sound personally, I just wish they weren't so boutique-ey with their pricing...

I usually start out sitting down, then I stand up when I have to go answer the door because the cops are here again. :D

Cool. Thanks for the info-- I forgot you had one too. Everybody's got one except me :(

Two quick q's! Just want to know what to expect when I get mine. 1. Do you think the pickups need raising in your opinion? 2. How much noise/hum are you getting out of the pups, more or less than your average single coils? The site says the mid position is noise canceling. Thanks dude! Now...

Congrats! That is a beautiful guitar. I'm waiting impatiently for them to come back in stock so I can order mine in that color as well! I also noticed how neat your room is! What will you be playing it through?

lol... that is some big ass text! He has a point though. I feel like talented players have a habit of making decent gear sound top notch and crappy players do the opposite. I am probably the latter but I have fun while I do it so that is all that matters to me!

I don't think you can compare fairly just based on youtube clips. People record everything differently.

Hmm. Come to think of it, who knows what was done to my vintage club before I had it. I know the speakers are still stock. The person who had it before me left a full set of mesa boogie el84s and 12ax7s in it. I would love to know if they did anything else! I guess that's one of the drawbacks to...

I love my crate vintage club 50 and I don't care who knows it! I just wish it wasn't designed like an easy bake oven LOL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXxdtbqQc2U&feature=related Wow....makes me want that pignose!!!

Cool! Thanks for the ideas. The fender deville would be awesome but I guess I'd have to save for a while. I wish I could forget about all of my bills and just spend money on music equipment. :( That pignose sounds good! Have you done anything to it? I've heard people complain about the stock...
