...Rob at TM sent it off to Bogner to have the Strato channel modded into a 2nd Brown, effectively making it a three voice preamp. I love having two Brown channels...since the Strato and Brown originally shared the same eq, I'm now using the second Brown now as a solo boost.

Right now I'm running it through the FX return of my Uberschall...took me about half an hour, but I got that thing dialed in really nice once I understood how all the eq and volume levels interact between the two amps. What a great preamp. It really reminds me of an XTC. Its really unique in that rhythms are very tight but leads seam really loose, just a great feeling when you're playing.

This weekend I'm going to screw around and run it through my RT 2/50, but ultimately I think I'm going to try and keep the Uber on as a power amp so I can run W/D/W. The Uber will power the dry cab, and the RT will power the stereo wet effects. :thumbsup: Plus I'll be able to bypass the Fish and use the Uber outright as well.

Good times! :rock:
 
let us know how you like it when you get it up and running (and post some clips). Mine is on the way as of today; I finally paid it off. I am hoping for tonal Nirvana; guess we will see. :)

Congrats.
 
Now Rob's coping me? Bastard. :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:

When I did the two brown channel thing he told me I was crazy. lol

Well if this was your idea, then hats off to you Sir! :salute:

After another day, I'm loving this more and more...

I'm not sure if anyone else did it before me. Maybe. I also got a second Fish and it has 2 Strato chanels. That way I have that channel if I want it, but it solved the shared eq problem for me. I could never get the eq to work for the brown and strato at the same time.

Must sound massive with the Uber power section. Cograts. :rock:

Yeah, the shared eq is what scared me, and frankly, the Brown is the flagship channel of that amp anyway...and yes, it sounds great running through the Uber power section.

Good times; not a bit of regret thus far...I do believe she will be with me for quite some time. :thumbsup:
 
How are you loving it? Any chance we could get some clips? My Fish is supposed to be here Friday. I can't wait. This has been the longest week I can remember.

No clips in the foreseeable future, sorry.

It's great! Starting to wonder if I would have like the Cantrell mod as well though? To be honest, I've just been using both Brown channels.

Another thing, I've decided to use two M75s vice the M75 / H75 mix I use with the Uber. For whatever reason, the H/M mix comes off as a bit harsh with the Fish for my liking.

Hmm. Thats interesting. I haven't even tried my Scumbacks yet. I really like my EVMs, but I will eventually check this out.

Well I'm running them through a Port City OS 2x12 cab...obviously the change to straight M75s relates only to my preference, but I'm basically going for a very warm, modern brown sound, and the M75s are obviously perfect for that.

No man, I think that's cool. I love the M75s. I was just wondering how they mix with the Hs, so I was curious on your thoughts. I have a J75 I will try, but not the H. So, I'm thinking I might not even try that now if it is kind of harsh.
