    Telefunken 12ax7 new production.

    I absolutely hate when companies do this. Let's take the name of something that was good, and try to trick you into buying cheap garbage with it....

    OK, these new Tape Machine pedals are getting intense....

    Just a goof, not a pedal but..... I NEED ONE:

    12AX7 tubes... Victim of my newbieness

    Correct. The longer the plate, the larger the 'sound stage'. This is typically described as added "depth" or "dimension". I put long plates in every slot that can handle it.

    retubed my Egnater Rebel 20 (thanks to all on their input on my previous posts!) and what a difference

    I have a Rivera Clubster Royale, basically a Blackface and tweed in one. This particuar amp shines with the RCA 6v6 smoked glass, that being said, quite a bit has changed in my setup, and it would not hurt to do some rolling! As far as input stages on my particular amp - nothing can seem to top...

    What do you like your relief and action set at?

    I see many here like it the same way: As little relief as possible. Radius gauge for the strings/Radiused. Action though changes per guitar to be honest for me. Some guitars like it just a bit higher, but my action is never high anymore, though I can pick quite aggressively. I like about...

    12AX7 tubes... Victim of my newbieness

    It just gets deeper and deeper. Realized the roundness coming from my speaker cabinet was due to the Cliff input jack...... Swapped it out.... Didn't even think that could make a difference but oh boy it did.

    Fender Stratocaster (SSS) Wiring Help / Troubleshooting

    Hey, somehow I did not see this reply!! My apologies. I am sure you are done but one layer does the trick.

    Oh dude you went for the gusto!! Hello yeah, Sylvania tubes are the most 'tubey' sounding of them all. For cleans especially - there is not a better choice. Solid decisions on your tube choices, glad you made the change!!

    LP neck 'bucker of choice

    Tough choice man.... The Blues Heritage neck pickup in my LP is a monster and is is Alnico V, which does still work and sounds great, but as you saw in my other post, I am toying with the idea of trying another Blues Heritage with alnico IVs. A2s are nice and snappy in the neck of a LP as...

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    Dude these older PRS McCarty pickups are screaming!! Sounds like they may have Alnico IVs in them. Hm.... May want to try swapping some of my current A5 with A4 and see how they sound.

    NGD! -2000 PRS McCarty 10 Top

    These pick up sound great. Like, really, really nice. A lot more push than I was expecting. They measure at 7.6k and 8.6k. Those are the same measurements I saw online from another McCarty from this year, so I am assuming they are stock. The neck is quite sunken in to match the bridge which...

    NGD! -2000 PRS McCarty 10 Top

    A few taps of the hammer and a couple of passes with the fret kisser and it is good to go.

    NGD! -2000 PRS McCarty 10 Top

    There is one dead spot on the 1st fret of the high 2. 2nd fret looks slightly lifted, normal. Will get it nice and supported and a few taps with my fretting deadblow to see if that gets it handled. If not, I may have to spot level that fret. Why is it always the 2nd fret on guitars??

    NGD! -2000 PRS McCarty 10 Top

    Hello RT, Look what arrived safe and sound! Came packed oddly, but well enough and in a hardshell case, so it survived the trip. Overall, only a ding or two more than I was expecting and a toggle and output swap, which the seller agreed to cover. Works fine as is but the toggle is loose...

    1/4 Jack Tone differences(?!)

    I did some experimenting and..... The slight roundness I was trying to dial out of my amp is gone after switching away from the Cliff style jack I was using. I tried a gold jack lying around, but it does what gold always does to the sound and I dislike it. Something about the way I do...

    New Guitar Week - Another Suhr in the Stable

    That is honestly the best looking Suhr I have ever seen. I am sure the playability matches the looks. The money is already gone, let the guilt go with it - it's new guitar time.

    Got a new Git - Post pickup surgery

    Agreed that the Epi Probuckers have good tones in them. Had a buddy swap a set out, and though I did like the new set better overall, the Epis were surprisingly good sounding.
