    Eleven rack question? Power and Preamp or just preamp?

    Hey Red_Label. I was just reading this again and wanted to comment again. I wonder how you like your Vox LE going into the Tech 21 Power Engine? As you probably know Tech 21 just came out with this thing that has a good Plexi distortion, their sans amp simulation which I love, and it also has...

    Wobbly Klinking Trem arm on Schaller FR. on Charvel. Fix?

    Hey folks. Anyone besides me hate the looseness of a floyd screw on trem? I love the Ibanez way of doing this with the collars, etc, and just sick the trem arm in the Edge trem. I have a Low Pro Edge trem on my S series guitar and would like to know if it's possible to fix my Schaller Trem which...

    Fender 6 hole strat bridge / trem staying in tune ala EVH?

    Thanks a lot. I think I read that a long time ago, but didn't really appreciate it as much as I do now.. I'm always playing with my strat I built. and now wanting to see if I can get it to hold tune. It will do so if I pull up before I quit playing the trem, but then it won't do so if I don't...

    Fender 6 hole strat bridge / trem staying in tune ala EVH?

    Thanks everyone. It's interesting. I find that I can make it stay in tune mostly if I don't use it much.. LOL. But my Floyd equipped guitar.. Or I should say my Charvel which has a Charvel Branded Trem, but says Schaller made in Germany NEVER goes out of tune. It seems I could throw it against...

    Talk me out of Active pickups...

    Man, if it sounds good to your ear, it's probably ok. I love actives, and passives, but actives have some other reasons to like them. Less chance of getting shocked is one, but not that big of a reason, but others too like long cable runs. As long as you want. No lose of signal, pushes the amp...

    Fender 6 hole strat bridge / trem staying in tune ala EVH?

    Can anyone tell me the secret, although it must not be a big secret to guys like EVH and Yngwie who used Strats and the vintage trems, etc, before the floyds for EVH, and still stayed in tune? I mean at least a little? I realize you can't stay in tune maybe totally, but I watched Yngwie stay...

    Best inexpensive used all tube head rack version / studio?

    :confused: I wrote / posted awhile back and someone very nice suggested what preamp to buy that was all tube, and it was not that expensive. Especially used. I only remember that it was all tube and it hasn't changed all that much over the years. I'm thinking it may have been a rocktron, but...

    Kramer Pacer - Vintage Tiger Any good?

    Let us know how it turns out. I've been thinking of one, but I think I'll just build it. I used to own a few kramers including a neck thru, and a couple beretta's, etc,. back in the day.. Now if I were going to buy a stock guitar it would probably be a charvel for the money. Otherwise I'd just...

    Eleven rack question? Power and Preamp or just preamp?

    How would you use it on stage if you didn't use a power amp and cab, or in the fx loop of an amp? Is there some other way I'm not aware of? T

    Eleven rack question? Power and Preamp or just preamp?

    Hey Red Label. Yeah, I agree. You have to take those things with a grain of salt when it comes to reviews. I typically try to just get info from them about specs, etc,. I'll probably use the eleven rack for recording and gigs. Mostly recording, but I'm trying to put together a 3 piece or 4...

    ESP Eclipse Custom

    9k is nuts. I like ESP stuff and always have. I used to have an ESP Queens ryche guitar I got from someone who had it made at the Custom shop, and it was killer, but I just don't see the reason to pay that much for an Eclipse. If I were going to pay that much for a Gibson Custom Copy, I'd get...

    Hi Jsutter. Isn't mosvavle the hybrid thing with preamp with tubes and power amp is solid state or something? I had a mosvalve amp from Marshall awhile back in the 90's and it was ok except at loud volumes. It also had a terrible habit of picking up police scanners or something in the garage /...
