Yeah, just typical Marshall goofiness, lol. Their power switch is marked Power on/off, and works as you'd think. And most other brands have the Standby marked on/off, and runs that way, but they aren't set up like that. Just more confusing. Just like how they have the cabinets marked as...
I picked up a used Squier Telecaster today, it sounded and played fine, just wondering what I've actually got. I don't know the numbers on these well enough to know, and can't find a lot of info on it either. The number on the back of the headstock is a: CGS/seven digit number. Also marked as...
Just saw the post on the X pattern connection for this. Cool if it does work, I will try this too. Is there any possible issues with connecting this way? This is the first time I've heard of hooking in this way, so I don't know much about it. Would like to know of any problems before I hit...
Just to update, talked to L & M, and also heard back from the factory Marshall techs too, and mine is set up correctly. When the standby switch is On, you are in full play mode. When the switch is set to Off, you are in standby mode. Like I said, it had been a while since I had run a Marshall...
Makes sense, but it's working the exact opposite. And I have heard of others being this way too, but not sure what models. I hadn't used Marshalls for a long time, so wasn't sure if I was remembering something wrong, lol.
Question for you other DSL 100 owners, which way does your standby switch work? I have full playing power with mine set to the on position, and no playing power with it set to the off position. Just wondered if this is normal for them, since it seems backwards to run this way. Should the switch...
I've never used one live, mostly because I don't like having to program and remember anything, lol. I prefer the individual pedals, and using them as I go. Just age I guess. I do have a Behringer Vamp2 though, that I use as a practice unit (again no programming, haha) when I want to stay friends...
Another question on these, is it actually worth having another set of cables in the way, to have it run through the loop, as opposed to one set of cables and having it in the main chain with the rest of the boxes? I'm truly asking, as I've never used an effects loop before now. Just really...
Always happy to hear all input! I wouldn't be using a rack mount, would be a pedal if I did. I used to have one years ago, but found myself constantly playing around with it, so I took it off the board. Was considering adding one back again, but only if it was a set and forget type deal. I can...
In regards to the EQ, whether in the loop or in front, did either of you keep adjusting it as you needed, or set it/forget it and then just on/off? And when you had it in front, where was it in the chain?
It is very close, but would be cool to hear it through the same cabinet too. Otherwise I have to go with the actual 800 for the win. Even in this video when they switch it's missing the kick that chili alluded to in his reply. Does sound good though if the cost is what decides which way to go.
Yeah, definitely the scary part of wondering why a deal might be so good nowadays. But, all you can do is research the best you can, and use your best judgement when checking something out. Even at a good price, if something seems fishy, walking away is still an option. Better safe than sorry...
No way can anyone say that doesn't sound good. Nice work on the playing too, like that. And that song should have been put out that way originally too, with no vocals. Much better tune. What did you record with? Asking only because I haven't done much for a while, so interested in what's being...
I can't say I've found many with necks I didn't like, but I have come across a few with fingerboards I didn't like. Never actually measured them, but have found a few where the board across the face seemed a lot narrower, and the frets closer together. Was a total pain to play, as nothing...
Thanks for all the info here, and the vids sound fine. Gives me a headstart on where to play with everything too, like that. Will see where I end up, lol.
I just started the online registration with the Marshall site for my amp, but it's asking for the model number and keeps adding a letter. I type in the model, and it pulls up a list with almost the entire alphabet after the number. I don't see anything on the amp itself other than DSL 100H, but...
And I'm the guy who finds these deals after I pay retail, and have no money left, lol.
Like all have said before, jump all over this. No way will you lose out on it.
