So I recently got a taste of a real tube amp and I'm beyond ecstatic. I can't get the Axe-fx II to sound as good as the Triple Recto so I've been using my Recto for live/practice. I've been missing my effects so I'm contemplating buying a small pedal for a tuner, delay, whammy and wah. I've been...

We had a chance to A/B the two at Matt's (mhenson42) a couple of months ago and determined that they did not sound alike... and hopefully my buddy Matt will get his new CCV in by this Sunday to compare again...from what I remember, Brad was going to send Cliff a reference amp right before the...

It's been such a long time since I've had a chance to record anything at all... hope you guys and gals like it... All guitars and bass were recorded with the Axe-fx II into Sonar 8.5... let me know what you guys think... oh, and don't mind that subpar solo at the end, I make no claims to...

I have two Marshall 1960 cabs (A/B) that have the tolex torn pretty bad... and I wanted to "Rhino Line" the outside but was curious as to how that would affect the overall sound of the cab... any thoughts?

During the whole countdown I saw where two of the FAS "higher ups" were selling their Axe-fx's J (eBay) and V (FAS forum) where selling their Axe-fx Ultras... One of them was "called out" and then they both removed their "items" and any trace of said posts... I put two and two together and...

I just got back from going to Sam Ash with a buddy of mine, and had a chance to demo the Mackie HD1531... An Australian fella from hear on Rig-Talk was raving about how great it sounded and how he replaced his VHT (Fryette) 2/90/2 and VHT Fat Bottom cab with the Mackie HD1531. Well, we plugged...

Why do they call Peter... Papa? Just asking... :)

I don't know if you guys are familiar with these types of headphones but I got these and they don't sound nearly loud enough via my iPhone, which I read previous to purchasing them so I expected that... but I was thinking that my Behringer AMP800 would be enough to power them which it...

Got some four V30's (16 ohm) on the way (thanks Mike!) to go with my four G12T-75's (16 ohm) so now I've been itching to get both of my Marshall 1960 A/B cabs in X pattern... I found two diagrams for Series-Parallel and Parallel-Series... the Series-Parallel showed that I needed to have two sets...

My first “full blown” amp fest… there were plenty of awesome high gain amps to go around, that was for sure. There were four Mills Acoustics cabs, two Marshall 1960BV (edit) cabs, a Port City 2x12 cab with Scumback H75(?) that sounded huge for a 2x12 and a 4x10 cab. Please chime in with the...

Had a wonderful time (again) at Matt's house... there were several folks that I had never met but were from (here in) the Rig-Talk forums... Quick and to the point... the following amps where preset: Cameron (I think) CCV-100... (I was surprised at how small it was) It sounded great, we...

I've been GASing for a Peavey 5150 (I, II, III), but I don't know which one of all the bunch is the best bang for the buck... I'd really appreciate some input... Thanks! P.S. Then what about the 6505, 6505+, etc?!?

Line 6 DT50 amp... combo and head versions... honestly, just looks like the newest version of the Spider Valve... "The DT50 is the latest evolution of Line 6 guitar amplification and the most significant advancement in amp technology to date. Fusing brand new Line 6 HD modeling with Reinhold...

Good Afternoon Everyone!!! We just had a show this past weekend and during our very first song my strap half busted... It was a Planet Waves locking strap... previous to that I had the original locking strap that I liked a bit better... anyhow... I'm in the market for a new strap (hopefully)...
