    Deleting volume pot for dummies (me)

    I dont know that i actually will embark on this, but it should teach me something anyway. In reality, i have no neck pickup. So i use no tone pot or switch. I just go pickup to volume to output. A few basic questions What does a (volume) pot's resistance actually do when all the way up? What...

    The power of pickups

    I know we have discussed (argued) about wood's effect on tone with electric guitars. I can say this. I played my amp with my les paul with 498, and the amp sounded pretty muddy and dark. Like way too dark. It sounds really bright with the jackson (wicked 8) til i up the preamp gain.It could be...

    Favorite pedal on your board

    If you could only have one pedal, what would it be? Mine is the lehle volume I use the 90 version. It is less convenient to have connections on side, but it has a min volume pot that means you can set the bottom to where your amp cleans up the perfect way for you and then use it as a "clean"...

    I dont know if any of you have checked this out. Pretty solid tone, great song writing. This should be a thing.

    Fortin Raped Me

    Fortin is probably innocent. But in my quest for the perfect noise gate, I recently purchased a highwind phalanx, and therefore was able to remove the spliff from my pedalboard. I don't know if the buffer was boosting noise or what, but i was trying to dial in the threshold, and wasn't really...

    MGL HG vs RED

    What would you say the differences/evolutions/goals etc were? Why did you change it? Obviously, the layout is a bit different as far as the faceplate is concerned. I know a lot of people wanted a clean channel...for what I have no idea, the amp cleans up beautifully with a volume roll. I...

    Top 3 amps you have played

    My MgL Red is my favorite amp I have ever owned. It is tight as fuck without a boost and has TONS of clarity. I have owned it for almost a year and I feel so lucky to have it. I played a VHT Ultralead and it had THE sound. I would love to a/b it with my MGL, but it could easily be a forever...

    Low volume and lunchbox amps

    There has been a lot of talk of low volume playing. Then there was also @DanTravis62 's best friend, tone dipshit that said low wattage amps were sonically the same as real amps. I think he wrote a book for guitarists. I was reading a study at princeton where they tied low volume playing to...

    Appreciation for our Mods

    I want to say how great a job our Mods are doing to address issues and be patient with us assholes (we assholes? fuck it), even when the prevailing opinion does not sit well with them. Too often all we do is bitch or critique even if it is meant to better things. Good Job @Monkey Man...

    I don't know if there is still a way to block content from a person, I can just easily scroll past spam. But if there is, I wish we had a number beside our names of how many have ignored us. @Monkey Man @JackBootedThug is there a way to make this so?

    Speaker complements to an H30 75hz Annie

    I have my mills 4x12 loaded with the annies, and they are mean and aggressive. I love the way they sound. They are very heavy in the presence department and I am thinking of loading another 4x12 with a slightly darker speaker to give more balance. My amp is a bit more on the dark side of the...
