To beat a dead horse . . . I just threw my spare M4 on top of my secondary rack yesterday, and noticed the same thing; I flipped the GROUND LIFT switch and the hum went away. But I never even look to see what position the GROUND LIFT switch is set to, I just set it to whichever is the quietest -...

Active pickups? Great playing neck? Great sound? You should buy my JP-90: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/msg/2133654439.html :yes:

Another (ultimate?) contender: Ian Gillan on Deep Purple's "Child In Time" . . . (I'm sure there are a few other Ian Gillan screams that could probably be contenders too!)

How about Rob Halford at the beginning of Judas Priest's "Ram It Down" . . .

Yes - that was also stated in the post I was referencing . . . I guess I should have mentioned that, as it was probably the most important point! :lol: :LOL: Here's the word from Bruce: https://www.rig-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=78029&start=26

I believe Bruce just recently reiterated that the E2 is being released in "early 2011", which wouldn't make sense if he was discontinuing the modular line . . . :confused:

Actually, no. The EG3/4 comes stock with a 1000pF cap at C1 on the vertical tube board, and it is changed to a 100pF as part of the "X" mod; so on the EG3/4X you would need to change the 100pF back to a 1000pF in order to return it stock (as stated in the instructions of the post you...

I see your point, and I feel for Metalhead; and from a certain perspective he was a standup guy. But it's kind of like January 17th, 1998 when Bill Clinton had to testify in regard to the Monica Lewinsky scandal. I always felt that he never even should have been put into that position where he...

YES!!! Another example of how important GOOD COMMUNICATION is, especially when dealing with someone for the first time; and even if they've done deals with others here before in the past - POOR COMMUNICATION SUCKS, I don't care who they are or how many deals they've done . . .

Got them in from where? Who is it that may have sold you counterfeit strings?

I've got about 5-6 sets of Schallers on various straps, but my first set did something scary: It wasn't the nut which screws down the lock to the strap that came off - it was the little knob that you pull to release the strap lock that unscrewed and came off. I remember I just happened to look...

Sorry - I should have been more clear and pointed this out: The problem for me actually was with the high gain modules - with the ground lift switch in one position my high gain modules sounded fine; in the other position they squealed like an SOB. I can verify this happened with an SL2X, a...

Rob - I had a problem like this with my M4, and had been talking to Bruce about sending it in. After poking around inside and putting the cover back on, the problem went away. But then I hit the Ground Lift switch by mistake, and lo and behold, the squealing/feedback was back! Did toggling the...

They should definitely be safe . . . from the Egnater MOD100 manual: RECOMMENDED BIAS SETTINGS 6L6/5881..................25mV to 35mV EL34/6CA7.................32mV to 40mV E34L......................35mV to 42mV 6550......................35mV to 45mV 6V6 (JJ ONLY !!!!!!!).....18mV to 22mV :rock:

Cool . . . I'll have to investigate that some more! :yes: Hope you're feeling better . . . Thanks! :rock:

I'm curious about the button labeled "EVH CHAN 3" . . . that button is one of only three buttons whose function cannot be changed (the other two being the UP and DOWN buttons) . . . How are you using it as a channel select? :confused:

Is that the tube he had in his hand in the video done over at Dave Friedman's shop?

This thread should give you everything you need, including several different ideas on how to implement the deep mod (fixed, toggle switch[es], push/pull pot[s], etc.): http://forum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=31723&hilit=tubes+mesa. Also, here's some part numbers that may help you...

+1 :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: . . . although currently I have Tung-Sol 5881s installed in mine. For a lightweight solution, consider the Mesa 20/20 . . .

I use a Mesa 20/20 (I actually own two of them) and have had no problems with overheating. I'm not running any fans, but then again I don't drive it too hard either. I'm running Mesa EL84s, although JJs are supposed to be an acceptable drop-in replacement according to Mesa from what I understand...
