    Avoid Tubes.RS

    I purchased one matched quad and one matched pair of NOS Mullard/Philips XF4 from Tubes.RS, the eastern European arm of Western Electric. They guaranteed these tubes to be matched within 2%. Once they arrived, I promptly tested them to make sure they were good before installing and biasing. One...

    Do you listen to an artist's music before their show?

    My gf and her friends went to see Lady Gaga a week or two ago. And before they went, they were blasting her music non-stop for hours to get pumped up. And she and I are going to a show tonight and she's been listening to the artist's songs all day. And I realized that it seems kinda weird to me...

    G12M-25 Versions?

    Back around 2010, I grabbed a—then new—Bogner 4x12 with Chinese, 16-ohm G12M-25. It sounded fantastic. I got ride of it for some reason years ago. Now I want to grab a quad of Greenbacks for a new cab. But I don't know which version to get. I see they're now made in the U.K. since 2018 or...

    Tool Upgrade

    Just got a few of these bad boys from Erem (Weller). The quality is ridiculous. I've heard other says theirs are still going strong after 20+ years. Got a lead straightener, another cutter, and some needle nose on the way too.

    What's Up With Expensive Cabs?

    Why are some companies selling 4x12 cabs for upwards of $2,700? Wizard? Hiwatt? These things are bonkers expensive. And then people trying to sell them used are asking more than a NEW 4x12 from companies like Bogner, Diezel, Fryette, Mesa, etc. It's a wood box and for a rear-loaded 4x12 using...

    A Boosted 2204... (Fryette content)

    ...is awesome. Just saying ;) Fortin Grind —> vertical input 2204 —> Fryette PS-2A —> Bogner 4x12 w/G12H-75s What a great sound. Open, uncompressed, and angry. The Power Station really adds a ton of aggression and low-end punch if you dial it right and use it as a second power amp instead of...

    2203 "Bay Area Thrash" 5GS Build

    First time doing this mod to a Marshall with a PCB. I've heard the traces on Marshall's ST1 board are fragile as hell and I can confirm that's true. I'm surprised they don't disintegrate the first time someone plays a power chord lol. But if you're careful you can make it work. This one belongs...

    Knock Knock, Who's There, Another FIVE-STAGE THRASH MOD!

    This time it's on my personal '70 Super Trem. When this one was built, Marshall tapped the B+ for the tremolo circuit at the wrong place, putting 515v on V1. When you turned the amp on, it would go crazy with noise and weird sounds for a bit until it calmed down a bit. But the trem circuit in...

    Celestion H75 Creambacks vs M65 Creambacks

    I've had G12H-75 Creambacks (8 ohm) in a Bogner straight 4x12 for many years. It's my go-to cab. I have another, similar Bogner cab that came with V30s. I just got some M65 Creambacks (new), also 8 ohm to replace the V30s. I figured the M and H would be similar—and they are in some ways. But the...

    Who can cut, drill, and stake turrets to a custom layout? I think MojoTone does. Anybody else?

    And Another 5-Stage "Bay Area Thrash" Langner Mod

    Got another vintage Marshall on the bench for a 5-stage "Bay Area Thrash" mod. A pretty clean 1972 Super Lead. Surgery has begun! Next step is to punch a new hole for the additional tube and figure out how I want to mount all the new components.

    Seeking WTB/WTT: Mesa Traditional Straight 4x12

    Just picked up a used standard/oversized version. Thing is mint, literally still had the tags on it. But I think I'd prefer the traditional version. Looking to buy or trade for my standard/oversized. Located in SF Bay Area.

    Amp Build: Marshall 1959T – "Bay Area Thrash" Langner Mod

    @Racerxrated sent me his '72 Marshall 1959T Super Tremolo for a 5-gain stage mod. This one is inspired by Langner's work with the DCP-1 and various Marshall mods he did, combined with a few of my own little tricks. As on homage to Todd Langner and the history of trash metal in the SF Bay Area...
