    Looking for a Vox combo. So many options.

    Thanks. Thats a nice looking AC10. I think I'm drawn more to the AC15 to the AC10, the obsession with the AC10 was the $300 fb marketplace price tag. How is the 4 watt handwired though? I've not ever played the 4 watt version of anything.

    Looking for a Vox combo. So many options.

    I don't want or need to push it a ton here, that's my agenda elsewhere. I'm here for the chat and the fun and an occasional question, but it's good to know that you all tolerate it reasonably 😂.

    Looking for a Vox combo. So many options.

    Great to know. I think in the next while I'll snag one. If a can bag a cheap AC10, do you think it is worthwhile?

    How does the Strymon Iridium handle germanium fuzz

    I don't mean to be vague or lazy, and not search. But I've never been happy with the dynamics of my builds on digital units. Is the Strymon Iridium better? I've tried it with Helix and it was terrible. The boss stuff wasn't great with it either. I'm looking for a headphone solution for my...

    Vox AC10 DIY or not?

    I think you understood correctly. I want something solid I can mod and play and maintain. I think handwired is the best option for me. I might just smag an ac10 if I can. There are 8 on FB marketplace, and I'll try to snag one in a trade.

    Vox AC10 DIY or not?

    I'm not really interested in building at the moment. Its fun, but I'll spend the same amount, on things once it gets to a cab and chassis, and this is a purchase I'm trying to keep on a lower budget. There is one point though, I have all necessary components in stock, Including electronic...

    Vox AC10 DIY or not?

    Damn. Not what I wanted to hear. I'll have to maybe see if I can find a handwired one. I'm solid with turret work. Is the AC10 decent and reliable enough to suit my needs? I am just looking for a different option for hauling to vendor markets and pedal shoes, I don't actually gig anymore...

    Vox AC10 DIY or not?

    I'm looking for a budget friendly AC10 for a demo amp. I've not seen inside one. I can deal with a PCB if needed, but absolutely not SMD. Is there anything interesting that can be done with them? Are they friendly to work on?

    Looking for a Vox combo. So many options.

    To reintroduce myself, as I have not been on here a while, but I'm living successfully as a pedalbuilder. All is good, not trying to advertise here and piss anyone off with that, but I'm very capable of electronic work, can obviously solder and read schematics. That aside. I want a vox tube...

    PRS Archon. Mean and similar voiced to me. I own an arcon and have owned a slew of 5150's. Cheap too. The first series USA heads are very well built

    Mesa studio 22cal with GEQ or orange ad30

    My other thought was a Dr z Maz 18. What are your thoughts on that?

    Mesa studio 22cal with GEQ or orange ad30

    Which makes more sense for a reliable pedal platform? I'm in need of a combo that is a pedal platform that is flexible. I have played an ad30 and liked it. I own another mesa identical that is and has been inoperable since I got it that I do intend to repair after my stint of never ending...

    Looking for a quality 8" speaker for pedal test rig

    As the title states. I am out of the loop on the market here to be honest. Been building and that's about it. Its been a year or so since I have been here. I bought a Terror Stamp and orange 1x8 for a pedal test rig. I am waiting for the cab to show up, but I know I am not going to be served...

    @Dino 939 What Rivera is that amp there? I absolutely love my Rivera amps. I have the k100, ktre, and the Jazz Suprema 50. Awesome amps in their respective territory. I have spoken to Paul Jr a few times verbal and regularly at Instagram a while ago. Paul Sr. Does most of the actual...

    Help with amp volume dropping out

    Clean the effects loops jacks with Deoxit. I have fixed a couple of crate / ampeg amps just with that. Heat and corrosion. Actually clean all of the jacks/pots/switches/sockets while you are at it. You could have a cold solder joint that is breaking contact at operating temperature. That's an...

    Boat Anchor?

    It's a perfectly good sounding rock / hard rock amp. Once that issue is fixed it's fine. And will be fine for a while. Clearly that tech does not want to work on it. It's something that if you were motivated and could solder decently you would be fine going through the repair.

    Just finished up refurbbing this Krank Rev 1 +

    I miss mine, but I traded it to Octavio of Underoath a few years ago for my current K-Tre. I really would like another one at some point in time. The Krank '+' aren't bad. The non '+' I had I could not tolerate no matter what eq tubes, pedals, etc.
