    MXR Smartgate?

    Have any of you guys used this gate before? I was looking around on other forums and people said that they liked it better than the ISP (Which I have two of) and for the price it seems like it would be good. Well I bought one last night for $80 and tried it out a bit today - I don't see how this...

    Room acoustics and miking up cabs

    Hey guys, I have started trying to record again, and I am not happy with my results. I am pretty sure it's the room that my cab is in. No matter where I move the mic on the speaker, it sounds way to harsh, or just so mushy that it's hard to listen to. I am recording with an MD 421, a recto with...

    Should I sell my peavey ultra plus for a mesa 295?

    I have the chance to buy a Mesa 295 power amp that I could use with my recto preamp. I think this would be very cool with the recto preamp because I could use one channel on class A and one channel on class AB :D Now, I need to get money for this. I could sell my peavey ultra plus for $400...

    Got my amp back from the tech today and...

    ...And they didn't fix it. They had it for a month now and didn't fix it at all, and to top that off the presence circuit doesn't work now, and they did a pretty bad job inside the amp. They burned some of the covering off of a cap, gouged a couple traces and soldered lugs to them to reconnect...

    Framus Dragon Cab shootout

    I made some new clips with my framus dragon playing walk by Pantera. Both were boosted by a custom overdrive pedal, and the settings were the same for both clips. One clip used a custom orange cab impulse, and one was miced up with a mesa cab. A: http://www.netmusicians.org/files/89-Fr ...

    Ever get sentimentally attached to a piece of gear?

    Today I am selling a piece of gear that is very special to me. I am selling my peavey rock master preamp to buy a new 4x12 cab. This preamp is sentimental because I bought it and found out it used to be my dads, and it has been special to me, but I can always find more of them. I just want to...

    Anyone ever had a big change in amp taste?

    I am now having one. I am really gassing for a single channel modded Marshall with a nice greenback cab, A simple pedal board with a volume pedal, Boost, Chorus, reverb and a wah. This is weird for me, because I have been a recto kinda guy, and wanting to change to something so different is odd...

I tried Hum frees to isolate it from the rack, hum eliminator boxes, 2 prong plugs (my dad got a shock...

    Good alternative pickups to EMG's

    I just got a new explorer that has the stock pickups, and they aren't great for what I do. I was wondering if there are any good passive alternative pickups to EMG's that have high output, but less than EMG's, Very aggressive, and cost less? I'm on a tight budget for new pickups, and I want to...

    New Cab Day, at least new to me. Splawn 4x12. give me advice

    Some information I found on the G12H80: They were made in England and are 8 ohm. They have a great tight bass, tons of mids with real glassy highs. The closest speaker in the Celestion line to this G12H80 for comparison would be the Classic Lead 80 except that the Classic Lead has a hair more...
