If anyone looks into their ice scream schematic I would be very curious to know what the range is on the internal tone control trim pot. Stock setting is 3.2khz which is somewhere in the middle of the range, but I'm not sure if that is right in the middle/noon setting or not.

Another great booster is the vfe ice scream, but by now I'm sure they are almost impossible to find. My favorite thing about them apart from the hpf/lpf filters is that they have an internal pot that moves the spot at which the tone control sits.

All you have to do is loosen the individual string until it is floppy, move the saddle and then tighten the string back up. Anytime you are going to be doing a new setup just make sure and leave a couple extra wraps at the headstock tuner, unless of course you have locking tuners. If you don't...

Also if that is indeed a 2024 MW then the stock power tubes are the 445(jj), and who knows what is in the 94 G. Probably not the stock 420, but hard to say what they've been replaced with.

Were the knobs set the same on both I wonder. Sounds like they could easily be dialed closer to each other in regards to spectrum. I have both though and can definitely say they feel a bit different from one another no matter how they are dialed. Anyone who has played both would surely notice.

I only like the tc side of the dirty tree. For my use the full tone-stack is essential. For me, which boost to choose will depend on which guitar/pickups I'm using and which Rectifier is on top of which cab, and even which mode on which channel and what settings it's running. For example I might...

Cool videos too.

Well the thing is the guy he bought this amp from said it had not been run for 5yrs, but then turned it on and ran it to check it out. It probably should have been run on standby for awhile, then ran on spongy/lower-voltage for a while longer before ever trying it on full voltage.

^^^ Good eye on the tubes. Looking again I can barely see that the last two digits are rounded on top, so they must be the 430s, although they did also for a short time use straight-bottle 420 types, but they might have had a brown base(?). My coke-bottle 420s are black-based though. Probably...

I'd be wondering what the serial was for the older 412 with straight shell and slanted baffle. It might be the more desirable early 2000's cab with the slightly darker V30s. If you had the number I could tell you if it was from that era. Those OG 3-channels can sound glorious too. It looks...

IMO SOH has much better sound quality. I love the songs on RIB but I tend to prefer darker tones, and RIB is the opposite. However, when I hear the word "thrash" I instantly think of the RIB tone/mix.

If the cab is a 412 with mono 16ohm and stereo 8ohm plugs but does not have a 4ohm switch, then you can always run two cables. You can run each cable from a 4ohm tap into each side of the 8ohm stereo cab. I used to run like this with my single rectifier going into a switchless cab that was...

Will it make my tone smell better?

You can remove the stock shim to make it 12, and then use floyd shims(the ones with holes for the screw to pass through) to bump the outers up a hair. They are tone-suckers, but if you only use one or two of the .2mm shims it is really not enough to notice. Use one under the 5th string saddle...

First, what cab are you trying to run from it? There might be a simpler solution.

My favorites are War Ensemble and Spirit In Black.
