Hello all, I've taken a break from playing for a few years (shame on me; career and a kid will do that to you!) and am slowly getting back up to speed playing. I've played for many years but have never really crafted my lead playing. I've been on a huge 80's kick lately and love some tasty...

Morning all, Long time no see! I've been out of this game for a little while (damn, a year or more) w/ a new career and a move so gear has fallen down the list of priorities. Now that I'm settled, it's slowly making it's way back up. :) :D Anyhow, I've been on a recent 80's & early 90's...

Hello all, It's been a while! I've been out of the gear buying game for a while. I've recently had a Mark IV which I recently sold, but have settled on a DSL 100. I've concluded that it sounds fantastic regardless of price point. Imagine that. :D Anyway, I'm posting this as a last ditch...

Hey dudes, Well I got a JCA22H with coupon from MF for like $340. Damn good deal if you ask me. I was a bit skeptical of how it would sound but I can honestly say that it sounds allllmost identical to my Avenger w/ Deyoung trannies that I sold a while back. Anyway. The amp arrived...

Gents, I'm currently saving for my next amp. I've been ampless and out of the game for a while but am saving for one nice piece of amp! I've recently simplified my setup to a Les Paul and Strat. I just need a kickass amp to go along with it. I'm looking for some kickass Marshall tone -...

I recently heard an SD60 at the studio I'm interning at and realllllly dug the sound of these amps. Are they still being made? Anyone know of a dealer? thanks Joe

Hey guys, I have an '04 Les Paul Standard and am trying to remove the bridge volume pot. I've unscrewed everything from the body side and she won't budge. Do I have to take that whole metal mounting plate thing off!? Oy. Help is appreciated! Joe

Hey dudes, I've recently acquired Ed's, Paige's, loudgtr's :lol: :LOL: SLOvenger. I want to bias her up with a multimeter. I've only biased a Plexi before and am curious where the bias points are in this amp. Is it a certain pin on the power tube sockets? Cheers Joe

Hey dudes, I'm looking to buy one of these and was curious when they were made and if anyone knew which revision they counted as? thankkkks! -Joe

Hey gents, I've very much used to the sound that my mahogany/maple top Les Paul gives me. I love the hugeness and the warm chunk it produces. I'm always on an endless quest for my next shred axe and the Petrucci Musicman is looking like a good contender right now. The only negative of this...

I sure am! Ever since you gents introduced me to them, they have become one of my favorite bands! Emil told me to expect the album late summer/early fall. I really can't wait! Arggggh!!!! -Joe

Hi guys, I've warmed up to my F-100 a lot more. I honestly hated it at first until I cracked open the volume. A tubescreamer helps a lot too! The amp is very uncompressed to begin with, so the tubescreamer tightens it up just enough. I want to replace the stock power tubes with Winged Cs...

I'm considering all 3 right now. Obviously the Boss/Analogman has them both beat price wise, but they have it beat in versatility. Anyone played all three? Minimal tone suckage required (even though it will be in the loop of the amp...) I'm leaning towards the Nova at the moment...

Hey guys, I just picked up a Mesa F-100 and am looking at routing options now. I want to be able to switch to clean/lead and have various effects automatically switched on or off. Since the amp is non-midi, I need something that can handle this. How about the GRX4? Will this work? I'm new...

I've always been somewhat interested in these amps. They didn't seem to get much love. A band called Bison B.C. that I really dig used one on their newest album and I really love the tone so I went for it. Can't wait to get it! Anyone else have experience with these? -Joe

I'm looking for a head to use with my current band. We play a blend of hard rock, stoner rock, metal, whatever the fuck. I need a BIG British sounding amp. I have been set on the Avenger for a while, but am also tempted to get the two channel JVM. It would be way more versatile, has a loop...

Hey guys, I plan on picking up one of those Blackstar amps as soon as they are available. I'm interested in slaving it with my 50 watt Plexi clone and am curious how it is done. I have an 8 ohm hotplate if that helps. Also, am I correct in assuming that only the volume control on the Plexi...

Hey dudes, I've wanted one of these for a while a bit the bullet a few weeks ago. Let me just say, John's customer service has been second to none. He sends pictures of the progress of your cab and calls with any questions or concerns. We spoke briefly on the phone today regarding the cab...

Hey guys, I plan on running my Plexi clone and a Soldano Avenger into one cab. I want the full midrange of the Plexi and lower mids of the Soldano. Which device would work best for this? Also, can the same device switch between this setup and say a clean combo? I plan on running a...

I got into these guys through some friends and have become a big fan. The first noticeable quality of this band are the vocals. If you are into the Danzig meets Elvis meets Keith Caputo of Life of Agony then you will dig them lol. The music is a mix of metal, punk, rock, whatever the hell...
