    The one on the left is the RR1 from 91. Had those and stacks loaded with Altecs! Good times.

    Remembering Randy.

    This is one of the original 200 tributes run guitars they made in 1992. They were supposed to do 200 in gold hardware. They did 199 and this is the only one in chrome hardware. I had ordered a custom RR1 the year before they did these and when I spoke to them about ordering one of these but with...

    Remembering Randy.

    That first blues lick in Mr. Crowley solo! Up until that point I had never heard that lick sound so massive. The saturation on the notes from the layering was intense. My kid brain could absolutely not figure out THAT sound. That took my knowledge of playing and sounds, etc to a higher level...

    Moving question part 2: Rack Gear

    I used a 10u non shock case when we traveled (before I could afford the shock racks) and as long as they are secure in the truck you shouldnt have any issues. Its hard bumping/tipping over that the shock racks make the difference. Just make sure the guys are careful and they are secure and ya...

    NOS 12AX7's in a Mesa mark IV Preferences?

    I use an RFT in V1. Been using them in that position for years. When I sent mine in Mike B. actually commented on how good that sounded in V1.

    Rig-Talk, the last haven for real musicians

    Here's my take. I WANT to take a small little modeler/amp/whatever into a one 10,8, or straight in if possible. That would be kickass!! When all the modeling, flyrigs, blah blah came out I was psyched cause I didnt want the wear and tear on my tube amps..etc. Problem is there is nothing out...

    Rack effects

    Regarding mixers...... Dont forget the speed of the processor of the effects unit. I would take tone suck over drop out any time, especially in a live gig situation. There are some units (PCM42 comes to mind} that can color your sound in a positive way. There isnt any positive in dropout...

    Expensive Instrument Cable Snake Oil

    I used to think it was all horseshit about the more expensive the better the sound until I actually heard it myself in person. I was and still am pissed that I did hear a difference! LOL There are also some cables that are brighter and or darker being the same length too. Like you said, its not...

    What’s a good single space rack multi-effect…

    JER, If you do go for an Eclipse, you will need a mixer though. That unit is very slow to run in series. I love mine, but would not want it to be my only unit if running in series. Cant beat the sounds though. Although the H90 isnt that far off depending on your main sounds. Hell, An original...

    What’s a good single space rack multi-effect…

    Lxp 5 was good for what it did. Half rack. That did Chorus, Pitch. etc. Lxp 1 did verbs. Value wise they are a good deal. If you're only gonna use it sparingly an even better value is the Alex. That was like $80 and could hold its own if ya werent going balls out. I will never part with my Pcm70...

    Racks still rule

    There was quite a few names that were brought up but unfortunately without anything on paper afa schematics there was really nothing to go on. Believe me, I wanted them to pass the torch to someone who could have taken it to the next level. We also discussed the possibility of releasing the ET...

    Racks still rule

    That IS the next Gen.. LOL Switchblade ET. I was friends with Ken and spoke with his family about continuing his work. Problem is he "was" Sound Sculpture and everything was in his head. Not many schematics or notes for that matter. The ET has a USB connection on the front for updates but was...

    Racks still rule

    Here is my latest setup. These are the core units I've been using for quite a while. With the Switchblade its an extremely versatile rig. I do switch heads regularly as most of this rig really shines with clean tones. This is just about a third of the rack units I have, but again, this setup...

    Talk to me about the Les Paul Moderns and Supremes.

    I have a few customs and a 2004 Supreme. All have changed pups as I dont really get along with Gibson stock pups. As was mentioned, the Supreme wouldnt be my first choice for modern metal as overall the attack is just not as tight/punchy on an extreme high gain amp. For a classic R&R sound is...

    Well All My Gear May Be Destroyed...

    Tell me about the Mesa Mark IV

    Yep. Mike did it before I even got it. I told Mark what I was looking for which was more gain that a stock 2c+ and he asked Mike if he would do it. Mark was kinda excited that Mike said yes and ordered 2. I couldnt afford 2 even at artist pricing cause I had also picked up diamond plate cabs and...
