    What kind of Delays are you guys using in your DSL effects loop?

    Keeley Halo. Eight presets with two different delays available via two footswitches. A rich delay tone in general, with a raft of adjustable parameters. Also the halo effect is quite beautiful and unique. Really spacious sound in general. 3D.

    Tone King Ironman II or Fryette PS-2

    The PS2 allows you to both attenuate with a reactive load and reamp, all with a tube power amp. Also with all the tonal adjustments available on it, you can dial in all the tonal qualities, with the 8 different settings, you like at any volume, which is the trick with any attenuation...the sound...

    What Music Are You Listening To Right Now ??

    Steely Dan and later Donald Fagan. Those were some cool nerds. I liked them when they were new, but bowled over by them now. Of course they'd get the hottest guitarists to solo, and Walter was damned sharp himself.

    (This aint the) U.S.S.A.

    You're not a socialist, but probably want your social security and Medicare, and enjoy national parks, which were built by social programs like the WPA and CCC. And want a 40 hour week, over time pay and such, which are union based, and were attacked for being communist at their time of...

    New Soldano Astro-20

    The looseness is exaggerated by the revording vehicle, maybe the IR. In live space, get that master up over 1 and it gets tight real fast. Big and tight, with great pure highs. TRY ONE! I picked one before I got polluted by YT demos.

    New Soldano Astro-20

    This thread languished since the Astro's coming party, when I picked a new unit at a sweet discount. I used to have an slo 100, and currently have a modded slo30 (separated clean and crunch, removed some compression), as well as several Marshalls, a Diezel Paul, Mezzabarba Trinity, an Engl...

    I am amp indecisive, opinions please

    I gigged the jvm 410 heavily for the range of material you're doing, and it was really good. If you want super good, look out for the Satriani version. It's what the JVM standard should be. The new Soldano astro 20 is fantastic for clubs, gets loud for a 20 watt, and has an excellent line out IR...

    Psychotherapy/Psychiatry

    Both saved my life. The important thing is that your therapist is a licenced clinical psychologist with a real PhD or a licenced psychiatrist with an MD. The problem is that anyone can call themselves a therapist or counselor, and they may well be carp on a stick. Don't trash the profession over...

    Why does my JVM-205H hate me?

    Sorry.

    Why does my JVM-205H hate me?

    It has wet/dry control. It's a parallel loop I believe. Mine's quiet, no problems.

    My Silverface Fender Bassman is better than your amp.

    Don't believe the shade cast about silverface Fenders with MV...everyone used those in my day, or Marshalls, and the baseman sounded great with the channel volume dimed. The problem was with the pull knob master...pulling it out was some kinda nasty diode clipping. Just plain old preamp drive...

    New T75s vs Classic Lead 80s in x pattern with Marshall G12 Vintage speakers?

    That's exactly what I was trying to say. I stumbled across them in a nice cab Egnater made, an oversized 2x12 with Lead 80s. Just about as full of a guitar tone you could find. My band mates loved them. Underloved and underknown speaker.

    When I come back to use external EQ.... ( blown away )

    Absolutely. Nothing makes the guitar seriously present, especially in a band mix, like an eq in the loop. Clarifies and tightens everything you're playing without adding gain or obviouscompression. Always have one at the ready.

    I just keep coming back to V30's

    I really like the combo of greenbacks and v30s in a 4x12. Greens on top and v30s on bottom. They fill in each other's sound curve.

    21 year old son wanting to buy own guitar. Ibanez.

    Get a PRS SE. Good bit less than a grand, solid quality, spans musical genres. Used, you can get a good one for $500.

    Chinese vs Indo guitars - which are better.. or less bad?

    Indonesia is probably the most consistent builder in Asia now. A lot of designers like PRS are now using Cort for their lower cost axes, which is putting out a really consistent product under their own name. Most of the cheap Asian labor was the result of IMF loan conditions, most of which have...
