    Suggestions on Dimarzios for Alder Super Strat ?

    I'm a big fan of the Transition set. Well balanced and sounds good doing anything.

    Stereo loadbox rig for headphone use

    Fair enough. Fwiw, this was my solution to that problem. My load box and interface are on a little shelf by my amps, and I have an old laptop that's always on, running Reaper. (Most of the time the screen is closed but it's still powered on.) If I want to play on the couch, I just need to run a...

    Stereo loadbox rig for headphone use

    Personally I'd go with a good IR loader on your computer, fed from any load box you like. Maximum flexibility. I'm currently using one of the York IR packs with a stereo room capture (fed from a Suhr RL) and, honestly, it's the closest I've ever felt to playing with a cabinet in the room...

    Budget-friendly Attenuator/Loadbox?

    I've had the Captor and the Suhr, much preferred the Suhr. You can find the non IR version second hand. (Though it's a bit more than the Captor.) I'm also a fan of keeping the components separate. So when you need an IR loader live, you don't have to drag the load box with you.

    Hey Bash! Thanks for the kind words. Was also great to meet you in person. We'll definitely get louder next time 🤘

    Anyone use a plexi glass baffle for 4x12 live?

    I use a couple of wedge-shaped plexiglass diffusers ("ToneShield") with a 2x12. Mostly for dispersion, so you can hear yourself everywhere on stage. But it kills the beam so you can crank your amp and you're not going to take anyone's head off. Works well.

    Something better?

    Personally I always stick a volume pedal in the loop so I can adjust as necessary ... if you're always too loud this might be handy. In this case you could stick with the same approach (amp out --> PS100 --> cab), but in the amp's loop (or the PS100 loop), run the FX send to the Lehle Y, one...

    how to handle a remorseful buyer on reverb?

    I had an Iridium- there is a bit of 60 Hz noise in the background that you only hear at low volumes. I didn't hear it with the Amp 1 Mercury so I wrote to Bluguitar about it and they said that's normal for the unit. So ... doesn't sound like any kind of issue.

    Conundrum... need cabinet advice. Help me find a best of all worlds.

    Why does the 4x12 have to go? Probably sounds great at low volumes :cool: If recording is your goal, I'd keep the cabinet and get a good load box instead (the Suhr one without IRs isn't too much on the used market) and a decent interface. IRs are cheap and are going to give way more flexibility...

    Is there a story behind the picture wall? It's quite striking.

    Steve Morse Band - The Introduction (1984) - Full Album

    Killer album. Southern Steel was the one that got me, then The Introduction.

    Digitech drop pedal... any live users ?

    That's where the Helix Poly Capo wins- it goes up.

    Digitech drop pedal... any live users ?

    I used one live for a few years for exactly the same reason- a handful of tunes are in Eb and it wasn't worth bringing another guitar for it or retuning mid-set. I think it's pretty great for 1-2 semitones down. It does feel a bit odd - there's a tiny bit of latency to it - but you get over...

    EBMM YT Sig guitars

    So beyond the spin of this being a limited edition sig model, dealers can order special runs (custom colours, some config changes, etc.) assuming they place a large enough order. There are plenty out there. If you could guarantee selling 50ish instruments, you could probably get your own sig...
