I was applying for jobs the last half of 2023 into 2024 and a few months this year. I haven't heard back from 99% of them. Positions I'm well qualified (and over-qualified for). I've been applying to in-person AND remote. With everything I've been seeing, it looks like the job market is just...

The reverb circuit on the II's were always noisy and apparently a well known problem. Mesa used to mod them, changing up some resistors and ground placements. Out of the tracing's I've seen online, there's a bunch of differences on the Reverb Return & Drive Stage (V3A & V4B) cathode bypass area...

I like everything about it. The shape. The output jack thing. 20" Radius. Trem Stabilizer, the middle pickup being voiced so that he can slam it down and it doesn't drop out the volume. Before the video was over I was dead set on getting one.. until I found out it's gonna be $7300+ after tax. No...

On all my reverb equipped IIC+'s the Reverb was seemingly "always on". Clicked on it was loud and proud. Clicked off you could still hear the springiness, especially if you were heavily gated and playing riffs with pauses. Cheesed me off enough to keep my reverb on 0 for all of them.

Mojotone Tomahawk / Dustie Waring set. 16k Alnico V bridge, 7.6k Alnico V Neck. The bridge pickup is super mean and sounded sick in my Les Paul. Just so happens I have a set for sale :D I will also suggest the Bare Knuckle Ragnaroks. I'm not into Djent, I can't Djent.. but the pickup set is...

Man how cool would it be to rip a sick solo then turn around and bang a chick on top of your cab. I wonder if I could rise to the occasion in front of an audience both for the solo and for the banging. That's what this add is implying, right?

Midi capable and having different settings makes me want to try one. There was one on Reverb for $200+/-. I added it to my cart and went to check out and it sold before I could check out. :mad:

Looking for a Redseven NGR-1

I like Caparison.

If it's my own guitar, I just use low % box film capacitors in modern wiring. If it's for a client, I use big cool looking capacitors, vintage looking parts. Different caps in the same value never seem to make a difference for me. Changing around the values and changing around from 50s to...

bump for better pictures

I only mainly used Petrucci settings, they sounded fuller and more usable. The Metallica tones I tried dialing in on any of my Marks always sounded like dookie. Start with Petrucci settings and adjust to taste. EQs on mine changed tone dramatically with a tiny movement. Volume: 7-8 Treble...

Check out my profile on the Neural Cloud, I've got a bunch of IIC+ captures. Being able to capture these amps made it a lot easier for me when I had to sell them. The QC has so much insane versatility, it was overwhelming when I swapped from the Kemper. https://cloud.neuraldsp.com/cloud/u/JayKnight

$176 shipped I currently have them in a guitar and I'm too lazy to pull them unless they sell since they sound really good. Full wire leads. They're in good condition. Matte black covered. F-Spaced. These are monster pickups, but I bought some gold cover replacements. Trades? Redseven NGR-1...

As a Mesa fanboy, I hated the Badlander with all of my heart. It's not a true rectifier. It sounds nothing like the old school ones and it sounds nothing like "the modern rectifier!". I ordered one with a custom headshell on announcement and when I eventually got the amp, I sold it less than a...

I loved my Kemper, it was the only "amp" I had for 5+ years, but the form factor of the rack unit plus the footswitch became a bear. The Kemper Stage was a nice upgrade, but my Kemper board was massive and I needed to streamline more. I regularly used the Morph function on an expression pedal to...

Metallica hasn't written a meaningful album in years, Kirk and Lars can barely play their instruments. Meanwhile Megadeth's latest albums are all killer and Dave brings new blood to the band all the time. I'm super stoked to see what Teemu brings to the next Megadeth album. I haven't been...

I'm gonna have to move some stuff around to score that Emperor cab then. Weird, but sounds like it'll be sick. Meanwhile, I'll post some of my (old) rigs JP2C W/D/W Rig controlled by a Musicomlab EFX MK-VI board. JP2C runs straight out to a cab dry. JP2C loop output ran into the MPX1...

How do you like that Emperor cab? There's a 6x12 up for sale locally and I'm very tempted to try it out.

It's so hard to get neck pocket angles perfect, shims are essential. I've shimmed so many necks for people, most of the time without even mentioning it and they almost always mention how great the guitar plays now. I usually add a single strip of thin 3M Sandpaper either to the front or back of...
