Considering picking up one of these as I’ve never tried one. Anything I should know in terms of any known quirks or technical issues? Things to watch out for when buying a used one? Does it have a good base JCM 800 sound or is it more DSL-ish? So many big bands have used it in their rigs so...

There is a new run of Fortin Cali’s in black for sale on his reverb site. Too expensive for my budget, and I already have the Neural DSP plug-in version. But I always had a hard time dialing it in. There just way too many switches and knobs and I much prefer the NTS plug-in with its simpler...

Does anyone know if there was ever a specific year when the original Marshall Silver Jubilee cabinets had the Celestion Marshall branded G12 Vintage speakers? (The original vintage 30’s). Every Jubilee cab I see for sale from that era always has the G12T75 speakers. I know they made the cabinets...

I’m on a chorus kick lately and looking to either buy a vintage CE-2 or the new CE-2W (Waza). Mostly an 80’s metal guy so I’m leaning towards the original CE-2. From all the YouTube vids I’ve seen, the CE-2W in CE-2 mode is more bright and clinical than the original and seems to be missing the...

Good thing I don’t like green OD pedals. To my door in Canada it would be like $450 after shipping, customs, taxes. I’m an SD-1 guy, maybe he’ll do one day :yes: https://godlyke.com/products/fortin-modded-ts808-tube-screamer

Just saw this on my feed, isn’t this one of those Chinese ones they made for a short time that were like $500? I used to have one of the pointy headstock ones and it was an ok banger guitar. https://reverb.com/item/56528846-charvel-custom-shop-usa-singlecut

New old pedal day! Found a Boss DD3 made in Japan version from 1990 in a local used gear shop. I swear it looks barely played for something 30+ years old. Was excited to hook it up and play it side by side against a newer 2008 Taiwan version I have. Wow it was very different, warmer, more...

Recently acquired a body from a guitar I’ve been looking a long time for. A Charvel Wild Card 3 from 2010 in matte black with a single direct mount humbucker. I had a Charvel neck (also from a USA Pro Mod) that I could use with it, but it doesn’t fit in the pocket correctly and the angle is...

Saw this for myself the other day at a local guitar shop that deals with a lot of vintage gear, estate sales etc. https://musiccitycanada.com/collections/vintage-and-used-gear/products/vintage-marshall-jcm800-full-stack-time-capsule-1983 1983 white JCM 800 full stack completely mint condition...

After being inspired by the recent Charvel Gang documentary, I went on the hunt to complete a guitar that started out with a USA rosewood neck from the USA Pro Mod Wild Card series that I had from a previous frankenstrat. I tried marrying it with an MIM So Cal body but it just never seemed to...

Anyone pick up one of the Fortin cabinets yet? (1x12, 2x12, 4x12) Curious for the 4x12s what the difference is (in sound) between front loaded and rear loaded and why one would prefer one over the other.

I have a 1986 Fender Contemporary Stratocaster (MIJ) that’s been with me my whole life. It’s not the greatest guitar in the world, and all the parts are really starting to wear on it. Just trying to keep it going for sentimental value. The truss rod is a pain in the ass as you have to take off...

So what’s everyone best guess for this before NAMM? Looks like something the size of a Thrasher 50 or smaller. Maybe a single channel Natas or something similar? I’m loving the Fortin NTS plugin so I’m hoping I can actually afford this :lol: :LOL:

Been thinking about picking up the Randall Thrasher 50 for a small size but still powerful amp. I’ve been really enjoying the Neural Fortin NTS plug-in while messing around with recordings, and the Thrasher is the closest things to the real Natas. I’ve been using a G12T-75 IR with the NTS...

I just picked up an ISP G112 ported 1x12 cabinet. It’s really great so far, light to carry and can get as quiet or loud as I need. It has an 8-ohm G12T-75 speaker that sounds great in this enclosure. I bought it primarily to use with my ISP Theta preamps and Stealth Pro poweramp. However, my...

This looks interesting but I feel like technology has come back full circle to my early 90’s Johnson J-Station! :lol: :LOL: https://www.premierguitar.com/articles/ ... -200-floor

Anyone ever tried this pedal? This is the newer red one by Fender. I grabbed one just to give it a go and holy hell, talk about “more is more”, this is the strongest overdrive I’ve ever tried in terms of boost power. Gives you killer pick attack and articulation. What the heck is it based on? I...

Sold

Been eyeing up this body as I have a early 80’s large headstock Fender scalloped neck that should work with this, but don’t want to bother if not legit. I thought the middle pickups on these were standard single coils, not a Dimarzio...

:doh: Just figured out a long standing issue with noise and my Charvel. After putting in new pickups, changing my Floyd to a German OFR, and changing the springs to noiseless, I discovered a bad grounding issue. I checked everything, my wiring, the pickups, pots, grounding wires... could not...
