See if you can hear any here. You can use alligator clips and do the testing yourself back to back pretty easily. Will show better through certain setups.

It doesn't show through the same through my little Marshall. It is still there, but enough that I can pretty much ignore it. The Rivera with the Blackplates and AV75s though.....that reveals every damn detail.

I have a thread on RT somewhere detailing the differences but... I can hear the difference between any type of gold connector vs nickel/silver. Even if it is just the speaker cable going from my head to cab, it shapes the frequency audibly. Gold always does something I dislike to the range...

Hello, As some may know, I have been doing guitar electronic work/repair/upgrades quite a bit of late on my own instruments and others. I have found a recurring theme for me: I severely dislike the Mallory mustard caps that come in many Epiphones and also some others for sure. I have tried...

I kept fighting with the digital world. I then went hybrid with a Grandmeister 40 and spent less time dialing and saving stuff, but still quite a bit. Ended up getting my Rivera, plugged straight in with knobs at 5 and left the digital world forever. Too much time spent trying to dial in and...

Hello RT, My buddy found a very clean Rivera Pubster 25 combo that he got for like $600 shipped to his door. He has played and heard my Rivera Clubster Royale and decided to check out the Pubster. First off, he got this used from a GC and it was actually packed very well for shipment. I...

Fe fi fo fum, I smell a member named....

Welp, I saw the Weller post a bit late. Just went with a Hakko ordered direct from HakkoUsa to ensure I don't get a fake. Went with the silver. Should come with a decent iron and chisel tip. Excited to step up from my $20 Amazon iron, which overall has far served its purpose. Went with...

I get sketchy with used tools and stuff now. I guess I am going with the Hakko!

I have been on the fence about this exact model.... Hmm..... I may just make the jump. If I go that way, I need to decide if I go with the yellow/blue or silver.

Hello RT, Talked with my local shop owner and they said they would give me all of their guitar wiring work if so desired. What a blessing! From thought to reality in a short amount of time. Like the shortest, as in, I am not quite ready with the tools I want. I went ahead with nice Kester...

'Metal' always just means all black. I am over it.

The way the rings 'almost' caress David's neck fat..... So close...

I personally do not like the way the Neutrik gold color the sound. You may really like them but I found that I prefer the Switch craft 285 and 226. The Best-Tronics CA-0446 is the one for sure, good choice there. If you end up wanting patch cables, go with 0678. The sp400s are really solid...

If I get the cash to throw towards a build, I will definitely be getting another Lacello.

I am going to power up the board and unplug the pedals 1 by 1 until the issue occurs as soon as I get a break.

Of course your stuff is exactly the way I would want it... I am almost not even surprised at this point. I have a feeling it is the Red Witch FGIV. Will do some testing later today and see what's up.

Great question and I guess I should have included that. I will go through pedals individually when I get a chance and see if I experience the issue, just thought it was interesting. The lineup and order: Fulltone Clyde Deluxe Keeley Comp + Red witch Fuzz God IV Several Griffin Analog...

The people on here give me a glimmer of hope in the bleak world of online forums and groups. The advice and outright generosity and goodwill shown on RT is not something I have experienced elsewhere. just in general. I can talk about my most nerdy gear BS or go to the other forums for normal...

Final Update: Discovered that one of my pedals, the G-2 clone, has a buffer in it. Hello RT, I recently was doing some experimenting with my pedals and was thrown off. I was doing some testing and realized that when the pre-amp section of my board will not fully pass signal through when...
