Sometimes when I'm in a rut I go to the factory preset bank and just play and scroll. So many unique sounds that can inspire creativity. The "harmadillo" is my latest favorite. You can get some cool syncopated rhythms going with the various filters you can tweak.

I just shipped a 101B back to the mothership in LA. Fully insured was 133 bucks from Hawaii through pirateship. That was 60 bucks cheaper than the UPS store quoted me. Don't know how they do it but I'm a fan.

This thread is not good for my checking account

great time to be a new player. They weren't selling guitars like that for $375 when I started...

Now i'm browsing for a multi-watt dual... my wife thanks you

any way to grab one of these with a link? i have less than 50 posts and don't want to spam post to get permission to use the classified forum...

Just get a H9, preferably used if you're trying to save some $. It can do a lot more, but it can do excellent reverb in about any style you'd imagine in typical eventide quality.

Goldfinger SL. Reinhold nailed the marshall tone with 6v6s somehow

a used H9 is hard to beat if you want that eventide sound on the floor. they're pretty cheap now that the H90 is out.

Basic 101Bs are between 2500-3k. Hard to see how a 101A is cheaper

Probably 2800-3k depending on locality. I like the EL 34 model better based off a limited demo off the 6L6. Still a fantastic amp

You should try a Goldfinger SL. Does 60s/70s/80s like the Helios, but has a clean channel that's easily bogners best (and foot switchable). Add a tailorable boost for each channel and it's my favorite of his designs

It got a bit tacky. I live in HI with ridiculous humidity all year.

Just a quick rub with the magic eraser to take some of the tackiness off the finish. Almost imperceptible

not that i'm aware of. i've used one on a suhr modern, fender EJ strat, and an xotic telecaster to great effect. no downside really, just pause every now and then to assess how much you've taken off.

a mr clean magic eraser does a fantastic job. it's basically an extremely fine sandpaper embedded into the structure of a foam block.

Hard to beat an H90, or if you want cheaper the H9. Can do world class delay or verb in the H9, or both on the H90. And to be picky, the H9 has some algorithms that can do both delay and verb at the same time too.

I snagged a Mesa OS 4x12 and a Friedman Smallbox for 2k locally last year. Ended up selling the SB for 2k so I basically got a free Mesa 4x12

The upgrade from 2 to 2A is an adjustable line out in the place of the low pass.

that thing sounds nasty (in the best of ways)
