Hi guys, I’m looking to get a pedalboard power supply to replace the individual plugs and extension lead. My board consists of- Line 6 Relay G30 Boss TU2 Digitech Drop Digitech Freqout Line 6 M5 Tech 21 Midi Moose Can anyone recommend an all in one power supply that will work with all the...

Hey guys, I'm having an issue with my low E tuner on my Custom 22. The shaft that the string goes through isnt attached properly any more, it just pops out. If I get it just in the right place the tension of the string keeps it held in when restringing but it's definitely time to replace. I'm...

I'm using an 8ohm Diezel FL v30 cab with my VH4, sounds great. For bigger gigs it'd be nice to somehow incorporate my 16ohm Marshall 1960a as I'm the only guitarist in the band. Is there any safe way to do this? I've already done a bit of research and discovered the Weber Z Matcher, although I...

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone can suggest any high gain distortion pedals with a built in solo/volume boost? I just need something for live situations that require minimal gear and/or when I need to travel light. Only ones I can think of are the Triple Wreck and the Metal Muff. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi guys, tried finding an answer for this everywhere but can't seem to get an answer. When I run my Midi Moose with a battery, is there a way to turn it off? The Led stays on constantly and I can't find a way to turn it off other than removing the battery (hugely inconvenient when it's...

Hi guys I know the general consensus on the Katana head is that it's great. I'm getting a bit tired of turning up to smaller gigs with either a huge and heavy Diezel rig or just going direct with amp modellers and relying on the sound man. I need something in between for smaller venues with...

Hi guys. I'm having a live in flightcase built for my Diezel Vh4 and Diezel 2x12. I'm not sure if it would be better to have the cab above the head, it'd bring it closer to ear height which could be a good thing live on stage? I'm also having a pedal board slot and 4u of rack space which I...

Hi, I'd like to use the insert on channel 2 on my Vh4 as a tuner out/mute as suggested in the manual. I don't know how to 'connect the tip and sleeve internally' on a jack myself. Is there an easy way to do this? Is there a jack you can buy with the sleeve and tip already connected? Many...

Hi guys Basically the only effect I need right now is a delay. I don't want to go rackmount but I would like to be able to turn it on and off via my midi fs. This means I need to find a delay that works well in a parallel loop. I had real trouble with my mesa rectifiers with phasing issues with...

Does anyone know if the new FRX Floyd Rose trems will work on a Gibson Explorer (pro). It says on their website that it's compatible with Lps, SGs and Vs but nothing about Explorers. I can't seem to find any more info on it. Thanks

Hi, Just a quick question. I'm going to install a set of EMG 81/85 in my Explorer Pro. Do you know if I need the long shaft pots or small shaft pots? Thanks!

Hi, Is it ok to run an octave pedal in the channel insert for channel 3? I'm asking as I've heard different opinions as to whether the insert loops are placed before or after the pre amp and usually I'd run this pedal before the distortion. Thanks

Hi, I need some new valves for my VH4. Never had to buy them before, let alone rebias! The amp stopped making any sound and 2 of the valve failure leds came on the back, so hopefully it is just the valves. I think they have been in the amp for at least 3 years. I'm in the UK, it currently has...

Hi, Just wondering, does anyone here use channel 4 for rhythm playing? I find channel 3 quite stiff and lacking in gain. It's probably partly due to the fact I've been using a lot of modeling (Pods into power amps, Vetta etc) for the past 10 years, or possibly I need a re-valve. I have been...

Hi, Does anyone here have any experience using the thru out jack on the VH4? I'm thinking of running a dual amp rig with my 900 SLX. Is there tone loss due to using the output? Done quite a bit of searching but can't find much info on it. I even think the manual is pretty vague. Thanks Jake
