    Good deal on 8th gen foil getter Chinese tubes

    psychodave said it...I don't trust any of these super cheap dealers. Look at his power tubes...EH EL34 $36.59 a quad??? too good to be true. Somebody ain't testing and tossing like they should!! I got some bum power tubes from a similar guy on ebay (lesliehammtech?) and it's a pain to deal...

    Looking to replace my SM57 for micing cabs...

    57 to a nice ribbon is a big leap ($ wise). Not going to sound great on it's own for electric guitar, so you'd need multiple quality preamps...gets expensive fast. Even a "cheap" ribbon like a Beyer 160 is $400+. Heil and all the other "57 killers" (M88TG included) fall short IMO. Neither here...

    The BFG Snorkler Mod

    I suppose it's lost on you that nobody else even acknowledged this tired dreck you call music. It's too bad the great Ronnie Champagne and his amazing Snorkler couldn't get your shitty midlife crisis band more than one YouTube subscriber.

    Speaker Wiring Reversed

    Hi all, Looking for some speaker wiring knowledge. Is this 4x12 input jack wired backwards? All the diagrams I can find show black/negative being the lug closest to the front of the jack. What would happen if the wires were reversed? Would there still be sound? Would it be out of phase...

    180hz Hum?

    Thanks for the advice. It's definitely 180hz (checked with an EQ notch filter), which is clearly related to 60hz (and by extension 120hz) because it's the second harmonic overtone. Looks like it's due for a cap change.

    180hz Hum?

    I have a rackmount tube preamp with noticably more hum than its head counterpart. I've established that: 1) it's 180hz hum 2) it's affected by gain level (isn't really audible until high gain territory) 3) it's not related to any instrument plugged in 4) the tubes are fairly new 5) the moment I...

    Reverb bans Pussy Melter pedal and I got attacked by SJWs

    Do you have an actual point? I didn't suggest any idiotic product names are defensible. Did it ever occur to you that perhaps you're being harassed because of your association with the biggest scammer in the amp business? False equivalency. You realize that banning the sale of a product is...

    Don't mess with it. You've got the coveted radio rock tone.

    Reverb bans Pussy Melter pedal and I got attacked by SJWs

    Rights to what, use their service? Anyone using Reverb agreed to their terms of service. I'll wait for you to dig up the amendment pertaining to online gear selling rights. ;) Conservative buzzword for those with a modicum of empathy.

    You got "attacked." :lol: :LOL: You know you could just remove the best offer feature and not make a blog post about your struggles? We need a new safe space for selling gear with dumbass names. All the Pink Taco and Pussy Melter will be safe from the evil SJW boogeymen. I'm sure your Steel...

    Fair price for a well taken care of Rev F dual recto?

    When Reinhold Bogner modified my personal Dual Rectifier Solo Head in 1994, he took one look at the transformers and said "these are like child's toy" before chucking them in the garbage. He happened to have a weird Mark amp with 6 power tubes that he couldn't fix, so he pulled the trannies from...

    Fair price for a well taken care of Rev F dual recto?

    No fighting here. The reality that nobody selling a Rev F is going to mention is that all 2 channel Dual Rectifiers have "Mark" transformers. The first ones (up to mid '93) have the same transformers at Mark IVAs and maybe late Mark III 100 watt heads. Every one after has the same transformers...

    Fair price for a well taken care of Rev F dual recto?

    Anybody paying more than $1,500 for a Recto, chrome/blackface or not, is a downright fool. I suppose some folks can't resist their shiny objects.
