I totally get the desire to acquire an own an 800, but to say someone wont regret it is an assumption. I don't regret owning the 800 and JMP as I got to experience them firsthand, but for some reason I never gelled with that sound for home jamming or in a ban setting, and I now if I did get...
I also have the blue with EL34s, running it through some greenbacks, soon to be switched out for some stiffer sp3eakers, actually a G12T-75 and V30, which is what Bogner puts in their cabs I think.
SG-Guy, I know what you mean that it doesn't seem like it has a lot of gain, even with the gain...
Hi, just wondering who may have owned an Uberschall, how long you kept it, and what your impressions were.
I recently picked up a revision blue Uber. It is very powerful and highly impressive in the gain department to me, it is also amazing the clarity that it has on 7 or 8 string guitars, the...
I was ready to dump this amp, now it is a keeper, so yes worth it IMHO. It is amazing, it really gave it a more classic Marshall voice, there was something about that 4100 tone stack that drove me bananas, now it is a wide open singing sound.
Do you mean a sound clip or a demonstration of how...
I did the D10 and C27 jumper wire, I also removed R43 and R7. It was not a subtle change, it was very different, much fatter/warmer/rounder, more distortion. These changes only affect the B (gain) channel. It actually voices the B channel so it is much more like the A channel, just with...
I had a 50W SLX for years that I used, it sounded better in a band mix than any amp I've owned. I just modded my Dual Reverb to where it sound ridiculously similar to the SLX
Tried some JCM900 4100 mods, great success. I know this has been on different forums over the years including this one.
I did the D10 and C27 jumper wire, I also removed R43 and R7. It really brought out a huge thick tone on the B channel, making it sound much more similar to the A channel...
I have thought the same about just about every Marshall I've owned, they sound a bit harsh when played by itself but should even out in the context of a band.
If you stand directly in front of the speakers it's way worse, if you step to the side it smooths out.
I find an overdrive pedal is a...
Solar, you make the OR15 sound good! I have owned several, one of my favorite amps ever. I have had a Rockerverb 50MKIII for a while that I really dig too, and just picked up a TH30 combo which also impresses the hell out of me. Something about the Orange gain...
Yes, Oranges in my experience are terrific platforms for good OD pedals and EQ in the loop, brings them to life in ways where they trounce any amp I have ever owned
The OR15 vid was beyond awesome. Ive owned two OR15 and need another, the OR15 has a more aggressive gain to me than my Rockerverbs.
Glad someone revived this thread, my RV MKIII amazes me everyday, it is my main amp, total chunkriffcity
What a badass guitar! That is my favorite Anthrax era of all time, best album by them ever. I saw them at clash of the Titans concert back in the early 90's with Belladona it was epic.
I've found that blocking the trem to make it a dive only one increases the sustain and the whole spectrum of tone, I could see where adding the block could do the same, it's the mass of it I believe that 'grounds' the guitar tone and give a resonance chamber of sorts. That's probably way off...
I'm not saying maple tops don't do anything, I think those add some good tonal qualities, when I say veneers I am specifically referring to the super thin layer of maple that guitar companies put on to fake you out and make you think it is a proper maple top. These veneers don't add tone they...
