and Lee having no voice.. it sure as hell won't be any better than it was when it was already going.

Surprisingly, I agree. Portnoy is a great drummer and his work with DT is incredible BUT he is "too metal" for Rush.

If they did that, i think it probably wouldn't be as personal to many. That would feel more like a celebration of his legacy. "LIFESON/LEE an evening of RUSH" or something like that. Anyway, his voice is still going to be the issue.

Not stoked at all.. why do these guys have to ruin a good thing? Peart was as much that band as anyone else and it is fitting they ended it with him on board. As crazy as it sounds, these guys are Canadian icons and we treat them like a national treasure. Their legacy is what it is because of...

Yes , cranked on the MV and it is hard to tame bit im convinced they are probably using .022uf coupling caps common in a lot of plexis where I have gone .0022uf ( a common mod) in my clone and it helps tighten the bass early on. Might just be 2 caps to swap on the board and would make this thong...

So I got my JMP module in today and like the others, i will need to get used to the sound of this one but for sure I like it. There is definitely a stringy feel and a sponginess in this thing that the other modules do not have. BUT there is also a ton of bass. You really need to be careful with...

100% agree. There is no reason NOT to go purple now for Soldano. I get the others are going to do what they do but you sort of want the big boys to be in their OG colors. Purple or snakeskin for soldano, Marshall Gold, Peavey silver, Vox could to that burgundy/Brown. It just looks sharper and...

It was a limited run and I believe they were charging 100$ more just for the purple plate.. marketing at it's finest! Purple ones have more mojo!

Hate to say it but a lot of that is also do to having Marty in the band. When you get a guy that can play incredible lead breaks and solos around your music, it all comes together. The slingers he has had since are amazing players but none have given me the same feeling Marty did. You can sing...

Sounds like the new guy was told to "play something Marty would".. those bends and some of that phrasing is so Marty. That said, I also hear some Kiko phrasing. He's a hybrid!

I'd say that makes the case for the Variac as part of the secret sauce for sure. Sure gains up a tad at 90 and 70 is crazy..

The video we need right now. I notice he didn't use the bright switch at the top though which I think would give it the snap it is missing and it might be voiced a tad gainier in some of the clips but I'm thinking with bog boy glass instead of EL84's, it's as close as you can get without the...

OG koko kicks ass baby! SD-1 too. It and a TS anything are like salt and pepper for your Marshall steak

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, that really is incredibly young. Very sad indeed.

I would guess an 800 with some mod switches ( like the latest amp), and a Jubilee. Outside of that, what else would anyone really want or need? Harley Benton with some nice axes in that lineup too. Looking cheaper to buy one of theirs and then mod it to what you want vs doing a partscaster...

Sounds promising! Yes, that's the whole point of that 2nd channel.. it really ramps up the tubby bass quick and I like that they added a bass channel to that one too. Usually on my clone I run the second Vol at 2 and Vol 1 about 3/4 up and everything else set to 7. People also have to realize...

Come back when the next VH1 thread starts up.... so, tomorrow. Happy resting!

So, verdict? Mine gets in end of week I believe.

With those two faceplates you should be able to cover a ton of ground! I know it is a ridiculous upgrade but that purple pops!

The kicks and low side lunges lol. He's def on the mount Rushmore of guitar gods.
