thought i'd jump in here:
I'm not an expert, but I bought a 57, and when I tried it out, I was wondering what everyone kept raving about. That was with my old amp, a behringer ultratwin212. Then, I bought my Vox, and the 57 sounds great!...well, sounds good. What I do now is mix it with a SP...
Starting to see $1800 is a little much, since it does have a loose hinge. Any takers for $1600? Oh, and free shipping only for people in US. Sorry about that.
Rather than repost everything, you can find all info here:

Asking $1800, but because of the release of the new G4 laptops, as well as a loose screen hinge and a small dent, I'm willing to be a little flexible on the price (not much though). Free...
i always wanted to hang my OH from the ceiling, but i was always afraid I'd damage my cables. I've had the worse luck with bad connections at the mic end from one of my band mates stepping/tripping over cables while i'm recording. I figured hanging a cable like that with a mic dangling from the...
love my 603s on my guitar. some people say it's too bright, but it works great for me and my guitar. I also use them as OH and to record sound effects/ambient noise for movies.
hmmm...i'm more concerned with pres, so I don't think that the Toft would fit me right. I tried doing a search, but my limited knowledge of pres is preventing me from finding a decent one. Any other hi end pres you can think of that have S/PDIF out? a built in compressor would be nice too, but...
I also have the same question. My budget, though is around $800-1000. Don't really want to spend 1k if I can help it. I'm about to get a firepod, and although I like the pres, I would like to have 2 clean, hi-end channels for overdubs and overheads in addition to the 8pres. I'm looking at the...
I must agree with you on that one. and I do like to look cool...at least, my mom says i'm cool...
haha, no seriously though, you do have a point. I'll probably be hanging my vox mics, if only for the look. I tried it out, and IT IS very useful for looking at lyrics while singing. Now, I'm off...
FWIW, I use the v67g on my vocals (it's pretty good. Looking to upgrade soon, though). I use a B1 AND a 57 on my guitar cab, mix to taste. 603s are my OH, and acoustic guitar. Did not like the B1 on my voice, but it'll get the job done. If you're looking for something to temporarily hold you...
Ahh, it all sounds familiar now. So if I had a GT66, would it be better for me to start hanging it upside down for heat purposes? Or does it not matter with today's tubes. I dont' have one yet, thinking about it, but now i'm just curious. thanks again.
I know I've read this somewhere on here, but can't remember where. Why do people hang their mics upside down when recording (specifically, I usually only see this when recording vocals, or voice over work)? I THINK it has something to do w/ the type of mic used and moisture build it, or heat...
So I'm on stage, about to attempt the windmill. Finally got the courage to just go and do it as hard as I can (a little alcohol helped along the way). I strecth my right arm to the sky and prepared to do my 4 consecutive hits when all of a sudden, my strap breaks! guitar almost goes crashing to...
My bassist just wrote a song with 4 consecutive powerchords on the beat. I think it would be perfect if I could do it Pete Townsend style. Any pointers?
Whenever I try it, my left hand looses the chord, or my right arm can't extend far enough.
ahhh, i just figured out the only reason the twintrak cost 1k is b/c of the bluebird mic it includes. Last pre question: what do you think of the RNP? I'm leaning heavily toward the Sytek b/c I wanna try and stay under the 1k, and the toft, but the rnp's very attractive price is looking great. I...
xstatic,
Thanks, i'm very interested in the toft and the sytek. Currently, i'm only in the market for 2 channels, but the sytek is cheap, and has been getting great reviews. Have you heard/tried the focusrite twin track? I'm mostly interested in the pre section, but it comes with a bluebird mic...
Update
I brought the pedal and my amp with me to the music store and tried the pedal w/ a floor model of a vox halfstack. It worked perfectly, which meant my amp was broken. Brought the amp across the street to where I bought it, they let me exchange it w/ another one (this is my 3rd amp of the...
I see. Well, for what it's worth, i own an AFS75T. Bought it around Valentine's day. I love the way it plays, though the pickups seem weak to me. But this is coming from a guy that's been using high output soap box pickups for the last 5 years. Not sure what the 2 models have in common, but I...
thanks ITA, i'll check that out. Does anybody here have any experience w/ the new neve that was just released? The portica? (portico?) It's a dual channel, around $1450. Saw a thread on here earlier about it, but wanted to know if anyone had any first hand experience with it.
