    Zion Radicaster - Gorgeous!

    Absolutely beautiful guitar. I had no idea they were still making them. I'll always remember my pre-internet days of going to the stores in Albany, Schenectady, and Clifton Park , NY and A1 Hermies used to have Zions, Zons, Custom-Esp's, and your basic Kramers and Charvels etc that everyone...

    Something cool in the house today: Demeter TGP-3

    Most of STP for many years involved Demeter preamps.. Last time I saw them in concert Deleo had a pair of Vox Ac30's as well. . I've owned a Demeter TGA2 and TGA3 for many years, and they're killer amps Eric

    Power Tubes Recommendations

    Seriously I've never seen any JJ el34b's. BUT I think JJ used the 'B" for "Blue glass" at some point of time.. Not sure if they even still sell them.. They're the same as JJ El34L I guess. Regardless JJ's aren't my preferred tubes but they're aren't many others made these days! Erc

    Yea? TungSol EL34b, or JJ el34, E34l, El34-II, or 6ca7. . Are JJ el34B's, the Blue Glass model, or the "Better" designation like in the old days, or ? Eric

    Power Tubes Recommendations

    I guess I'm tempted to contact him, but not sure if I will or not. It's almost like the amp is set up for different tubes than el34's, OR just 1 kind that he had in stock. I literally have a dozen pairs of good old el34's and none would bias cool enough. (except some JJ's but they're not as...

    Power Tubes Recommendations

    Ah bummer. . Yep mine was biased REALLY hot, and I used it at every gig the past 2 years. I'd say I had at least 300-500 hours on them. Sounded great, but finally I figured I'd change them, and unfortunately the bias pot doesn't have enough range for all my good ones. Ha. . Oh well. . I...

    Power Tubes Recommendations

    Which did you like the most? Unfortunately with my Mini-Comp (must be the bias resister value) but I have loads of old El34's Svetlanas, old Chinese, lots of Siemens, etc and the bias range chosen by Splawn won't work to get it below about 45ma of current. I only have 2 sets of JJ's that...

    Cameron CCV for sale in Canada

    Wow, first thread I've read on here where people are saying they didn't like Cameron amps. . The asking prices are totally ridiculous now and only aimed at rich people, and I fully understand people not wanting to buy them over the years de to the ripping people off stuff, but now people are...

    Sold? - Demeter TGA-3a Tube Guitar Amplifier

    This amp should be a no-brainer for that price and condition! I have way too many amps including 2 Demeters so no buy more amps for me, but someone else should! Eric

    What loop level do you use? +4 or -10

    I've got loops on a 2009 Street Rod, a newer Super Comp and a much newer Mini-Competition, and I've only used pedals with them and they're as quiet as any loop I've had on any amp. I have about 25 tube amps. They're fantastic loops. Hopefully those of you have a noisy loop ,maybe it's...

    Any Jimi/ Trower players here?

    I saw Mahogany Rush live in about 1978 in Montreal . Was always a huge fan of Marino (and of course the other guys on this thread.. duh, I'm old and play guitar. .ha . . WELL then many years went by and I got Frank Marino/Mahogany Rush tix for a local bar show here in VT.. Dammit he...

    Sold

    Great price on a great amp! I have the same amp, and either yours or mine was the 1st Granger Plexi that Mark did the Mod 5 on. I wonder if they're the only 2 out there? Anyway, the price is a steal and the amp sounds great Eric

    Best $120 bucks I’ve spent in a long time.

    That's pretty interesting. I bought a little Digital Voltage meter to check voltages a few weeks back. . Mine is 120 at home and I've only done this test with my Splawn Competition.. It sounds great at 120. . I then had a gig with 113 volts. . Sounded nowhere near as good. . Last...

    Driftwood VS Two Notes Loadbox: All Load boxes aren’t the same.

    Have you compared the Driftwood to the Suhr Reactive Load? Btw, the Driftwood clip above sounds really great Eric

    Hermansson modded Marshall!!

    So maybe it's just me, as that amp sounds great (as do all the other Hermansson clips I've heard for a long time, but I don't hear barely any mids in those clips and that sound doesn't sound to me like it'll cut in many band scenarios. . Again maybe it's just me and my ears are definitely...
