    NAD: An odd Ecstasy 101B

    I wouldn’t jump to clipping caps on the board. Set the treble to 9, assign presence B to where you want it, and use B2 switch. It can be a bright punchy amp if that’s what you want. If you clip the cap and want to get under the main PCB to solder it back on, it’s a real pain in the ass.

    Impressed with Neural Amp Modeler (clip)

    Important to note the NAM is straight freeware. There's a solid facebook group that captures and releases their gear for free. More high gain focused, but that lines up will with this page.

    Bogner offering Metal Grills again

    If I recall correctly there are a few screws inside the headshell holding a wooden frame with the grillcloth installed on it. The grillcloth isn't stapled directly to the headshell. The metal grill has a pre installed bogner nameplate on it.

    Neural DSP Mesa Boogie Mark IIC+ Suite

    Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) is a freeware plugin that uses the same type of tech as the Neural DSP plugin. There are a few really good 2C+ captures everyone should try to see how good this technology can be. I don't know which is best, but the freeware plugin is good enough to turn heads...

    Bogner offering Metal Grills again

    I did it, really simple with just a screwdriver. Your going to have to pull the chassis out though. Biggest thing to remember is you'll see the unfinished inside of the headshell through the metal grill. I'd tolex that part, or paint it. Anything to just make it look black.

    I'm James: I'm a Tube-a-holic.... recently, i've been heavily considering going digital. thoughts?

    You should check out NAM (neural amp modeler). It's complete freeware open source. It's similar to the tech in tonex or the Kemper. There's a massive community dedicated to capturing all sorts of kickass gear and posting it for free. I have a current helix and NAM kicks it to the curb. Only...

    Fryette Power Station or Fryette Reactive Load IR

    You could plug the speaker out directly into the PS as well. Don't even have to turn on the poweramp. Run the PS line out into your DAW or whatever and just add a free VST IR loader to your signal chain. There are so many great free IRs out there it's a non issue. From there the PS let's you...

    Fryette Power Station or Fryette Reactive Load IR

    You can always take the line out from the power station into a DAW with a VST IR loader for recording. Having a poweramp for random shit is a huge + in my opinion. I use it for a W/D setup sometimes and it works great.

    What amp?

    Bogner 101B w/EL-34. I've yet to find anything equal to the blue channel. Great super reverb clean and a good higher gain channel as icing on the cake. I'd probably still pick it if it was only the blue channel with a boost honestly. Goldfinger SL is a close runner up.

    Finally started learning H90

    Sometimes when I'm in a rut I go to the factory preset bank and just play and scroll. So many unique sounds that can inspire creativity. The "harmadillo" is my latest favorite. You can get some cool syncopated rhythms going with the various filters you can tweak.

    Yeah, I Won’t Be Shipping Amps Again…

    I just shipped a 101B back to the mothership in LA. Fully insured was 133 bucks from Hawaii through pirateship. That was 60 bucks cheaper than the UPS store quoted me. Don't know how they do it but I'm a fan.

    Reverb prdals

    Just get a H9, preferably used if you're trying to save some $. It can do a lot more, but it can do excellent reverb in about any style you'd imagine in typical eventide quality.

    What's your current favorite 6V6 powered amp?

    Goldfinger SL. Reinhold nailed the marshall tone with 6v6s somehow

    What are the "in" reverb pedals these days?

    a used H9 is hard to beat if you want that eventide sound on the floor. they're pretty cheap now that the H90 is out.
