This amp was my first build and I put identical components in mine. It gets compliments by all who hear it. Tone of the gods. You cannot be disappointed in this amp, other than it being loud enough to kill small animals.
I have a CV-75 in a Mojotone clone of a Marshall 4010 and it sounds fantastic. I will be pairing another CV-75 with a V30 in an Avatar 2x12 I just got and I know it will sound awesome.
Wanted to revisit this one. I have the blue 16 ohm HP and like it a lot. I have a Marshall Power Brake I love, but I keep it at my practice space and ride my motorcycle to band practice, so carry nothing with me. Anyway, I jus got a killer Avatar 2x12 that's 8 ohms. Is it safe to run a big...
SW = Sweetwater
I have a buddy who worked for ESP in the mid-80s and said they supplied a lot of white labeled necks to Kramer, once Kramer got too big for their production abilities.
I don't get why guitars that had long stopped being built before Ed's passing skyrocketed in price after his passing. EBMM and Peavey were never going to start making them again. I have two of the EBMM EVHs and they're so awesome and I got them pretty cheap. But they're no more rare now than...
I went to Sweetwater today and got to fondle one. I didn't get to play it, as I was kind of in a rush and my phone was blowing up. But this one seemed pretty heavy to me. It's been over 30 years since I laid my hands on the original one, but this one felt pretty heavy, like a Les Paul. The...
I replaced the Gotoh on my latest EBMM Axis with the 1984 OFR. I don't know what the Gotohs are going for, but I might sell it. It has about two weeks of play time on it.
Please forgive my ignorance. I have been GAS'ing for one of these, but really only because I need some kind of harmonizer for a few songs. For example, if I wanted to play the guitar solo for Owner of a Lonely Heart, could I just dial in the interval with an H9 and would it then add it over...
Ok, so do I need to rebias when dropping the voltage with a Variac? I don't care about shortened tube life, but I care about keeping my original trannies.
Just checked wall voltage again for the first time in years and it was 120 now. I understand that's common in the summer months in AZ. And the dial on my Variac was off too. I re-indexed it to be accurate and will try 117VAC tomorrow when Mrs. Lee is out of the house.
This made me throw a Variac on my stock 100w Plexi today. I dropped it down to 90v and the indicator lamp was totally dark. I grabbed an EBMM EVH, tuned down 1/2 step and started running through the old VH catalogue. Oh my, this was awesome. I kind of want to do this some more and maybe at...
Oh man, I want that. There was a guy who was a senior when I was a freshman in high school who had that exact same guitar, also played through a GK250ML, which was not a cheap amp in those days. I saw in our alumni magazine that he lives near me now and I reached out, but never heard back from...
