    Cant get my dual rectifier to work

    C1-ocaster is spot on here. You can have your head with no load all day... as long as you don't have any input signal going to the front end of the amplifier. It is also [generally] safe to pull all the power tubes from an amplifier and use the effects send hooked up to another power amp or...

    All Original 1960 Les Paul W/ Hang Tags

    Someone who has money will probably buy it... isn't that how capitalism works? My guess is that the original owner was smart and said "this is going to be worth something one day." Closet classic fo sho.

    JUST GOT A VH4!!!!!

    Boost it with an 808 pretty hard before you decide to flip it. It makes a huge difference in the feel. The VH4, like Mesa Rectifiers, comes alive with a boost in my opinion.

    Baron British Metal Thrash Clip (soloed guitars)

    I believe I have owed you gentlemen a less polite metal clip of this amp, so I had some time to do it today :D Here it is---> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/156 ... Thrash.wav Straight in, all knobs at 11:00 aside from presence and thrust at 2:30. Single SM57 on a Mesa Rectifier 412...

    Am I right about Bogner 4x12s?

    I don't like it at all. It really depends. I've seen cabinets with 1" all the way up to 4"

    Am I right about Bogner 4x12s?

    While the cabinet makes the [biggest] difference out of any part of the equipment chain, user error is probably part of the equation. Given you are playing with another person using a tube amp, you can get any [amp with a tube power section] to cut through a live mix, given you are setting the...

    best pickups for coil splitting?

    All 4 conductor Lace Humbuckers split with NO noise. It's pretty epic.

    New and improved VH4 clip. Diezel owners chime in!

    Definitely sounds more true to the VH4 in this clip. Sounds like your gain is up pretty high for the juice factor. The VH4 is a hair on the dry side until you crack noon.

    Hitler wants his CCV

    Many men who trust other fine men of such a caliber are willing to compromise the safety of their manly salaries to save greedy men a measly 3%.

    6505 - how far removed from its parentage?

    Most people prefer the 6505 to the SLO. The 6505 is tighter and has a more transparent loop. Buy one new for $999 and use the coupon at musiciansfriend.com and have a great amp with a warranty for years. If it makes your decision easier, the 6505 gets used on nearly 8/10 metal projects at my...

    My Les Paul doesn't stay in tune.

    Sorry, missed this one. I have not had much experience aside from on one USA Strat that was awesome.

    My Les Paul doesn't stay in tune.

    I have used Guitar Grease and Nut Sauce and it has helped, but not resolved the issue on a stubborn nut. Having it cut properly is really important. To the OP: I would not suggest trying to widen the nut slots yourself unless you have proper tools or some experience, because if you go too low...

    VHT/Fryette experts, help me choose!

    Am I allowed to say you won't miss the KT88s? Get a CLX Masterbuilt. They are KILLER. My partner in tone brought one over here yesterday and it sounded great. The graphic eq option is a standout (I know other models have it too, but I felt like it needed to be said).

    Which band has the longest "Awesome albums in a row" streak?

    :rock:

    My Les Paul doesn't stay in tune.

    The problem is more than likely the nut of the guitar. The strings get caught in the nut slot, and when you bend a string or play hard, the string will go flat. Then you will adjust the tuning to be "back in tune," play again, and your string will go sharp. If you bring your guitar to a...
