83stratman, you might have a R7 that actually started life as a R9 that for some reason got pulled from the R9 line before the finish stage. My avatar is an R7 from the same era. There's ways to check for flame under the gold. Had a buddy refin the top on mine.

The Haynes mod is so simple to do on your own with any stock SLO. Just unsolder one leg of the bright cap on the lead channel's gain pot. Don't like the tone? Resolder the cap leg. Like It? Either pull the cap out completely, or cover up the cap leg that's up in the air with heat shrink and let...

Since I picked up my second Runt locally about a month ago, I've been running a pair at jams with friends and in my drummer's studio. I have a well broken-in Tone Tubby red alnico in one and a 20w Greenback (almost broke-in) in the other (I just don't jive with the stock 65w Creamback). They do...

This thread reminded me that I need to finish mine....

My avatar pic shows mine. It started out as a kind of a '09 R7 basket case, with missing and mis-matched plastics, shit pickups, and a crappy factory VOS gold finish. I was going to get the top re-done with a proper goldtop until I discovered the flame hiding under the VOS. I had Dave Johnson...

Excellent condition, works & sounds great. Footswitch, power cord, and shipping included. $1k PP/F&F

I made a passive pedal like this 20 years ago for a buddy, but it operates on a different principle: Rhythm Cut. When playing rhythm, the signal only passes thru a 10k volume pot that sets the amp's rhythm volume. When you hit the button for a solo, the 10k volume pot is bypassed so you get full...

Yup. Paul Sr. came up with the idea, built the jig, and mated it to a belt sander. 10" long pivot rod attached to the nut end, 16" long pivot rod attached to the heel end. Then he angled the belt sander to match the plane. Simple, consistent, and fast...whips out a fingerboard in about 12 seconds.

The 6P14P and EL-84L/7320 are basically the same tube.

7189's are a great choice, as are 6P14P's. These power tubes are spec'd for 400v operation as opposed to 300v with standard EL84's. That alone will extend your clean headroom a little bit when dimed.

Most of my forum time during the day is spent on a different forum, and he posts there quite a bit. I, too, commented once in one of his clip threads on how his clips all sound the same. Instant butthurt. Quickly cried to a mod and sent me a few choice words privately. Mod sided with me since...

Andy's upstairs shop back then was cool and funky. I was serious into blues at the time, doing slow bends and exaggerated vibrato. He dug my playing and would let me play every amp in there. So much fun. I even got to play thru Keef's stuff since Andy was amp-teching for the Stones back then. I...

Brian (BFG Amplification) was very close to coming out with his own model before he pulled the plug on his shop. I've always thought that whatever he came up with, it would've taken off. Andy (THD Electronics) used to have some fricking amazing Marshall mods back in the Ballard Firehouse days...

Youtube screenshot from an old rundown video he did back then. Custom single channel rack SLO...

One of the dudes I shared the table with used it as a shirt hanger, LOL. If you look to left side of the pic, you'll see two Alembic basses that I thought were fricking incredible.
