What mods can I have done to my MC?

[Slowner]

Forget it.

 

[saxxamafone]

What don't you like about the amp now? Otherwise why mod for the sake of modding?

 

[glip22]

None. Rick will explode your arm off your body if you touch it.

Please consult the Wizard‘s owners manual. I’ve taken the liberty of reprinting the entirety of it‘s contents here:

“Thank you for purchasing this Wizard amplifier. Though it now resides in your preferred location, it still belongs to me. Keep that in mind at all times. Cheers mate, RSP”

 

[Slowner]

Thank you. It’s actually being modded currently.

Thank you. It’s actually being modded currently.

What kind of mod may I ask ?

 

[Slowner]

Fx loop. it’s not much but still a mod.

 

[MetalHeadMike]

Fx loop. it’s not much but still a mod.

Worthy mod for it or any amp IMHO. I wont own an amp without one.

That’s cool

Modded by whom ?

Use the line out and run W/D. It sounds infinitely better than running the entire signal through the AD/DA conversion process of some digital FX unit.

It may sound different when you get it back

I don't use the loop for effects per say, just an eq in there to beef up the tone. The tone of every amp I've ever owned has benefitted tremendously from that. Removes the boxiness and widens the sonic footprint. I feel without the eq in the loop the tone is meh. I've tried running the eq out front on a few amps, but honestly quit trying many many amps ago and just haven't bought an amp since without a loop. This is just me of course and many feel what I do ruins the tone. Such a subjective/personal thing that way we all perceive tone.

Cool. Yeah. you need a loop for that. I use my Mesa 5-band from time to time.

1000%. This is what I do with my larry, even though the loop is great (and par/serial selectable, and line/inst selectable)

It's not that I dont trust the loop, its that I don't trust the entirety of my tone to the converters in some fx unit

I do understand the EQ thing, with a loop, but IMO if you get the right amp for you, you shouldn't need it

That being said, loops have gotten a LOT better in recent years, from the insanely bad passive ones back in the day. The Metro loop, Friedman, lots of people have gotten the loop in a much better place that it was.... but I still prefer wet/dry

 

[Slowner]

I have Dave Friedman installing the loop. I tried making it work without one but I’ve determined I absolutely needed one.

Cool. Which Wizard amp do you have ?

 

[Slowner]

I have modern classic, and also an Mtl mk2 but not bonding with it exactly. Love the Mc.

 

[Smashedguitaris⸸]

hmm. So both are probably no loop, but the Mtl you want to put one on. I don't use the loop on mine, either.

 

[Slowner]

The mtl has a loop. The mc, no loop. think I’m gonna get rid of the mtl though…
