    Ceriatone King Kong 50 vs Chupacabra 50

    This ^^^ I'll add that Channel 2 of the KK is voiced similar to the Yeti by default, but Nic will do it like a Chupa if you want. It's almost like a 2.5 channel amp. The "Solo" control is just a second master volume for channel 2...but it has its own ERA switch, so when you switch masters on...

    Buffer pedals. You NEED one.

    I think some people like the color they impart. I think that's different than what's being discussed here, unless you're talking about how much the receiver loads the signal at its output. I can't remember who else besides Angus, but I see to remember reading of others who stayed with those old...

    Is the Arab hooker industry so bad they advertise here ?

    I'm not sure about Arab hookers, but if my web browser is to be believed, there are all kinds of horny MILFs in my area looking to connect.

    Buffer pedals. You NEED one.

    Nope, I never said that about active pickups. They're great for people who like them, but they're not my thing. For people who like them, they do a great job of eliminating the need for a buffer at that point in the signal chain. Have you seen the video of the corrugated Strat loaded with Strat...

    Buffer pedals. You NEED one.

    Most of us are already using buffers, even if they're not labelled as such. Unless a pedal/device is true bypass, it's acting as a buffer. Your dedicated buffer pedal is only helping up to the point of the next buffered device in your chain, but sometimes that's all you need. Whether a...

    Gibson Releasing $999 PAF Limited Edition Pickups

    Yeah, I don't get that these are targeted at people because of how they think they'll sound. Maybe a few cork-sniffers who think there's magic in something that's more period correct. It seems like these are meant for people who want to spend money on bragging rights, or perhaps want to sit on...

    2203 Clone

    https://www.tedweber.com/8cm100-c-kt/ They will do assembly if requested, for additional cost. I think mojotone will also do assembly, but theirs is a 2204. I went with a 2203 from Ceriatone, so I can't speak to either of the above, I just know them as two other options.

    Dylana at 3rd Power Amps to build Satriani his next amp for the tour

    It'll be interesting to hear how it sounds and what everyone thinks of it. I'll likely never play one. Kind of nice though to see another smaller builder getting some pub.

    How to get Adam Jones (tool) guitar tone onMesa Rectifier?

    Interesting that they're using toroidal transformers on many models, and I don't see chokes on any of them.

    Found an old listing to my stolen ‘78 Les Paul Custom

    For felony theft under $25K in Louisiana it looks like the statute of limitations is 4 years. In terms of the intermediaries, pawn shops can get into some shit for selling stolen goods. Private citizens though rarely get prosecuted for selling items they didn't know were stolen. And a company...

    Synergy Inbound!

    This is what I have, and what I'd recommend...when you can find them. I've got EL34s in one side, and 6L6s in the other, and I can switch between them when I switch channels/modules. Sure, it's not gonna sound exactly like the power amp of the module's name sake, but the RT2/50 isn't a bland...

    Roland Orzabal…..

    I saw them in Denver this past July, and they played a great show. I'd forgotten how many good tunes they have.

    NAD Voodoo modded Marshall JVM 410H

    I had a Voodoo modded JMP-1 preamp that I thought sounded great. It had already been modded before I bought it, so I don't know how it sounded before. It at least wasn't noisy like I'd heard the stock ones could be. I think MM makes great transformers, but I'm not sure I want one in the output...

    Buyer wants a return and requesting full refund. Help!

    This is what I do with any high-value items too. It's a trade-off. On the one hand, when I self-pack I think it has a better chance of surviving the trip, but it's harder to win a claim. UPS/FedEx might not pack it as well as I do, but at least I'm covered if it's damaged.

    Buyer wants a return and requesting full refund. Help!

    Nope. As the seller you're on the hook to ensure the item is received in the same condition in which you sold it. If you're offering shipping and you're self-packing, then you're also liable for how that's fulfilled. I wouldn't though lose hope in the carrier paying a damage claim. UPS paid up...

    Buyer wants a return and requesting full refund. Help!

    A big part of it is following THEIR packing guidelines. I think we've all received packages and have been astonished at what some people think passes for well-packed. We need to look at what well-packed means to the companies who actually know what they're putting our shipments through. For...

    I think I want a Synergy Rig

    The Synergy stuff is what the MTS stuff should have been. MTS was good, but not quite there. The Randall RT2/50 was the star of the MTS line, and in my opinion, still the poweramp to have for the modular stuff. I still have a dual-channel M4 and RT2/50, and I'd have to be in pretty dire straits...

    Buyer wants a return and requesting full refund. Help!

    Sorry, OP. That sucks. I agree with the others though that it could very likely be damage in transit. V-style guitars are primarily what I play, and I won't buy ANY guitar online that doesn't ship in a hard case. I never ship without two rigid containers around a guitar, with at least one of...
