    Yes, you are being overly worried. If they're broken you'll know it. Otherwise just go with them.

    series vs paralell effects loop

    More fundamentally: A serial FX loop runs the entire preamp signal through the FX loop and into the power section. The whole signal is therefore "wet" and the FX level(s) are determined by mix levels on the FX units themselves. A parallel FX loop produces wet (through the FX) and dry...

    B-52 ls-412a

    I mostly hear of V30s being used in closed-back cabinets, but it really comes down to experimentation and preference. Almost all new speakers require some break-in time before they settle into their true sound. Give 'em a good 10 hours or so of moderate volume play before you change anything...

    As I said in the Cave thread, that is sweet. apl, your use of a 6-digit serial number implies that you think there's a chance that you could build 999,999 of your beauties in your lifetime. :eek: Or did you just think that 6 digits had a certain je ne sais quois? :D

    Hipshot tremsetter on a strat

    For a long time I played sitting down, but now that I've gotten active in a band again I find it more comfortable to stand than to sit. Go figure.

    What size is a bridge screw?

    Sorry, MJR, you're screwed. Ha ha. It's like trying to find a washer for that hard-to-find faucet in the kitchen that's been leaking for the last year. Blink, and you've just spent $20,000 on a kitchen remodel. :D Seriously - I think you can get the bits and pieces from Stewmac. If not, just...

    I'm sorry, but this thread was boring from the outset and I shouldn't have even contributed. :o I'd much rather do it than talk about it.

    Famous guitar sounds recipes

    :confused: Well, ya know, I just sit down with all my stuff and get it to where it sounds the most appropriate for what I want to do. I'm playing cover stuff and have a versatile amp rig, a good pedalboard, and a number of guitars, and I've gotten pretty good at dialing in most guitar tones...

    Famous guitar sounds recipes

    That's true for sure. Especially for someone like Jeff Beck, it's all in how he plays. I think other guitarists have a more "generic" sound that can be acheived with the right combination of technique and gear.
