I have a Port City OS Wave 2 x 12 cab with 2 Scumback BM 75 100 watt speakers. I purchased it so I don't have to bring a 4 x 12 Marshall cab. It sounds close enough and I get plenty of bass. The one thing I don't like is that it only has one handle on the top which makes it difficult to carry...

I do agree with you that his live tone was much better. One thing that I also believe he used to use live was a doubler that might have been used through the PA system because many guitar players didn't know how to use effects post distortion. Maybe the technology wasn't available at that time...

Sounds almost ring modulated. I had the same experience, I had one of the original preorder units. Not sure how much you need actual parametric bands but I am having good luck with the VFE standout as pre distortion EQ. LP and HP filters with boost. Thanks for the advice, but I do need the...

Unfortunately, when you hit the ParaEq boost to get the same boost of the PQ3, it starts sounding nasty with any amp I use when duplicating the usual eq settings from the PQ3. I should've done an A/B comparison to illustrate the difference, but I returned it before I thought about it.

I was looking at it awhile ago. I wonder how much gain you can get from each band. 20dB would be nice. It also looks smaller, plus it has a knob to control the q and it's only $199. Thanks!

Thanks for your advice. I'll keep an eye on the Boss and try the other ones that you mentioned.

I'm looking for a pedal parametric eq that sounds close to the Furman PQ3. I have the TC Electronics 2240 4 band parametric eq stereo but it didn't sound like the PQ3 but it sounds great when used on the fx loops of an amp. I also used to own the Rane 15 but it also didn't sound that great either!

I agree, and for the effects loop it works incredibly well because it's really clean. But the ParaEQ sounds different than the PQ3, maybe because the components are different due the size. I did an AB test without using too much gain and the PQ3 sounded more musical than the ParaEQ which sounded...

Yes, I did try it for some time with every conceivable setting. It doesn't have the gain that the PQ3 has and when using the Empress with a NMV Plexi it starts sounding nasty when the gain is increased. I used the Empress for a band that plays 70's,80's and 90's and it really helps for the 70's...

Thanks. I just can't understand why nobody has been able to duplicate the Furman PQ3. I'm getting tired of buying eqs! LOL! I have many fellow guitar players who have it and love them. They were all excited to find out if the Empress ParaEQ would sound like the PQ3. They were disappointed. I...

Hi Dave.I just purchased the Empress ParaEQ and it was a total disappointment! I also tried the TC Electronics 2240 and it still doesn't sound as good as the PQ3 I'm trying to find a parametric eq that sounds as good as the Furman PQ3 or PQ6. I would like to put all my pedals and eq's on a...

Good news from Suhr! They contact me and told they were able to duplicate the issue I was having. The problem was that when the amp has been on for some time, the tone changed from a great tone to a buzzy crappy tone, which was very annoying while trying to record guitar tracks! They couldn't...

I just dropped my Mesa 2 90 for servicing at that store, when I pick it up I'll check them out!I won't buy it there because Ca has one of the highest sale taxes! 10%! Thanks.

I've been looking at Matt's for buying it. I just need to find a store in Ca so I can make up my mind on the neck profile. I'm used to '64 Fender Strat necks and Warmoth 1 5/8 modern with 10 to 16 compound radius and wizard profile which is thinner than the standard thin. I also like 6110...

Thanks for the tip! Do you have to pay the whole amount or a percentage of the total price? I just can't find a stock Suhr Modern Pro with the specs I'm looking for like mahogany over flame maple with roasted maple neck and fretboard and other things that I'm looking for.

The amp is still under warranty and I don't think there's any tech that's a "certified " Suhr tech that can handle warranty service.

Thanks! I'm planning on buying a Suhr custom made guitar, and from what I heard they take a long time to finish them because they appear to be so busy! When I dropped my amp, they had one of their guitars hanging in a show room and when I touched the neck, a ray of light came down from the sky...

You might be right! I just miss the amp because it has a tone that I use a lot which none of my other amps get.

Some of us who work long hours in the studio are not aware of little details like that holidays and NAMM! Lol!

I dropped my PT100 at the Suhr to get it serviced at Lake Elsinore and it's been there for almost a month! Anyone had to wait that long for their amps to be repaired? Dave Friedman is really good about getting my amps done at a reasonable time despite how busy he is!
