    Anyone know what this is???

    i wouldn't plug anything into it until you know what it is! i like a good laugh too guys but :wtf: pics of the innereds should help our techs figure out what it is. oh and phototoilet err bucket hosted images wont last long. this is why when you mod/build an amp you label it! at the very least...

    What amp brand do you guys hate more?

    my favorite amp ATM is a valve 1W push-pull that sounds like a cranked Marshall. did a delivery to the Black Crows down town one day and the room was filled with little amps :hmm: small is where it's at for me. </opinion> now... <back to hatin>

    question about Caps

    going from a .0022uF to a .022uF is a big change. putting one as a coupling capacitor in V1, your tone will probably get muddy. don't change values unless you know what your doing.

    Gears of War?

    the first Gears campaign was fun at the time. multi-player sucked. too much health :confused: that and getting sniped in the head by 12 year olds. the second one was a letdown on the campaign. multi-player was unplayable. traded that shit quick. i'll pass on Gears 3. hoping Battlefield 3 is good.

    Re: Ok to use for bleeder?

    where's the dislike button? :confused: if you use the V1/pin 1 method, one hand behind your back and connect to ground first. double check with a Volt meter as Lane said.

    What cab for a 2204???

    a fellow 2204/SG owner here :wave: i have greenbacks and love the breakup/tone. in a 4x12, 4 greenbacks (100W) is a good cabinet for a 50W amp thats capable of 90W when distorted. check out warehouse guitar speakers AKA WGS. they have a "green beret" which is a greenback clone. the consensus...

    1936 cab: is it really that bad?

    the VM 2466 is a 100W amp right? be careful what speakers you put in it. 100W tube amps can put out 170ish Watts with distortion. 50W amps around 90W. i set my 2x12 up for 50W (2204) and i'm regretting it. :(

    Jcm 900 16 ohms output does not work!

    the jack could be bad or it's solder connection could be loose. you might wanna double check your wiring on the cabinet. a multi tester can check the ohm's on your cabinet without opening it up. if you don't have a backup amp, get yourself one. good luck :fingersx:

    How did you get started building/fixing/modifying guitar amplifiers?

    i've always been mechanically inclined. my father taught me how to solder when i was like 8 years old. i also like to tweak and improve things. i just started a few months ago with amps. first i learned how to discharge deadly capacitors. also learned if you need to check voltages on a live...

    Vox Lil' Night Train

    12AX7 will not work as an output tube. JJ ECC82 (non gold pin) sounds killer as an output tube in my 12AU7 amp. i like JJ's ECC83-S as far as new preamp tubes go. \/everything below confirm with a tech before you try them!\/ i've read about guys swapping a 12AU7 for a 12BH7, or a 12AT7. not...
