I've never owned that model but it's easy! Unplug the beast, unscew the screws holding the chasis in and carefully slide it out. You'll see the tube, it'll be that glass bottle smiling back at you.
The amp should have enough gain for what you're into. If anything I'd recommend dialing the...
dougstubes.com is good. That's where I got mine. He burns them in so there is less chance of premature failure; a nice service not all vendors offer. $15 for Tung Sols plus $6.65 for shipping and insurance.
red ones are JJ ecc83s. Don't get a bad taste for JJ yet/ my AVT came stock w/Chinese 9th gen. and out of curiosity I got another standard 9th gen and there was an improvement in gain straight off the bat with the new tube. I think Marshall racks up bottom of the barrel tubes, slaps their label...
Uhhhhhhhhh being that I only understood about half of what you said there it sounds like if you're unhappy with the internal effects than buy an effects pedal and run it through the loop.
Anything on their first two albums such as rtl as u mentioned is all Marshall other than Kirk using a stomp box which was a stupid move. Nothing other than a Marshall can nail a Marshall. :headbanger:
BTW I've been gone a while guys, I've been busy being miserable and drowning my sorrows...
EMG's have LESS magnetism than passives. They don't get muddy, the distortion is well defined on mid to high gain settings, however they breakup faster than passives on cleaner settings due to the higher output. A good way around that is the 81 tw. Personally I can get good clean sounds from...
You misunderstood me. I understand the difference between scales and modes. With personal opinions and semantics aside the math is there. From Major to Locrian the formula FROM Major to Dorian is one degree up all the way back to Locrian to Major when using the same notes. They are all...
Yes but blues scales are just variations of the Major and Minor tonalities. I don't think it deserves a special #3. :hippie: How you choose to voice it is another subject. And "modal playing" and exotic scales (within Western music) are just variations branched off of Major, Minor and the...
The Keys of A,G,E etc will give you the same sounds just higher or lower in pitch. If you want to get some different sounding stuff then use different modes like Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, or Locrian. Ionian (Major) and Aeolian (Minor) are used all the time. Also I don't like...
You'll get more sustain using actives than passives. Being active the pickups are super sensitive to any vibration. The biggest problem I've had was that it was picking up the tremolo springs in the back of my guitar after putting my hand across the strings to shut them up. This was after...
Don't waste your time with that rubbish get the attenuator. I've gone the little ss route for 2am jams. The real waste of money is buying a little POS you'll use a few times then stuff away in the closet. The attenuator will get more use, from small gigs, bedroom jamming, etc. and of course...
