    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    Lol, your opinion, and you're entitled to it. Thanks for sharing. I bought the DSL, and I like it. Just asking those who have made any changes to them what they had and what they changed to.

    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    Well, I ended up going with the DSL. Still would have liked the 800, but just could not justify the extra $2000 over the DSL. Thanks to all the replies here, and to those who said they do like the DSL but have done tube switches to appreciate it more, what did you have in it originally, and...

    Question For The Lefty Players

    Cool story! And I should have added, I myself am left handed, but do pretty much everything as a righty. Baseball, hockey, golf, guitar, all non left handed. I learned to play guitar the regular way, and never even thought about playing left handed.

    Question For The Lefty Players

    Always wanted to ask this so I will; what made you decide to go against the norm and play left handed? And how did you decide to try it? I first started playing when I was 8, (and well past that now, haha) and have tried it a couple times and just can't make it feel right. I'm not knocking...

    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    Thanks everybody. I don't ever believe in chasing another players sound, for one thing you can waste a ton of money trying and never be happy. As you say, name players equipment has been hot-rodded, and the recordings they do are engineered, so expecting those sounds out of stock stuff is...

    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    Thanks to everyone so far. Just to add more info, the 800 tone is what I'm looking for, and I'm not interested in used equipment unless it's from a store, where any problems that could come up could be gone back to and dealt with. But since very few ever come up for sale around here, new is...

    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    Yes, the 2000 was actually what I wanted to pick up a few years back, but plans had to change at the time and it never happened. Since it's not available anymore now, it's not an option anymore. And I am only looking at these two, no real interest in other models. Just not understanding the...

    DSL100H vs JCM800 2203

    I'm looking at getting a new head (to go along with the 1960AV cabinet) and would like to hear opinions on the two listed. I know what the 800 can do, but to purchase new, it's almost 3 times the cost of the DSL. And since the reviews I've read and the spec listings on the DSL state that it...

    Worth a shot?

    Thanks all. The YT idea I never thought of, may be a way to go. Will think on it some more. And thanks Ghostman, if I ever head your way I'll be sure to give you a shout, lol.

    Worth a shot?

    Just wondering if anyone else would risk buying a head that they cannot actually try out first. I have a shot at a JCM2000 DSL100w, used of course but it's an online deal quite a ways away from me. So therefore, no returns on any problems. They're asking around $1000 CN, while new of that...

    Do you use an EQ in your rig?

    Another question after reading this post and replies. How many have used one, and then stopped? Virtually everyone I have known who plays has used one, but I have never added or even tried one myself. Always kind of wondered if it was a mistake, but basing a lot on my having added eqs' to...

    Gonna revisit some old gear

    As long as it all still works, older stuff is fun to play with. For myself, it generally is simpler to deal with, and I usually like the sound. Nowadays, all companies are more concerned with every piece they make being able to sound like everything that has ever been produced. Granted, this...

    Boss BCB 60 board

    Saw this in the actual manual from Roland too, the third one made me laugh: Additional Precautions 553 • Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions. 556 • When...

    Boss BCB 60 board

    Thanks Mosher for the Roland link on this. I had checked their site, but missed this one somewhere in the search.

    Boss BCB 60 board

    Thanks guys. I know I had seen elsewhere people that did chain off of the TU2/3 pedals, but since they were also connected to the board, I wasn't sure if it was the tuner that made this work, or if it was the board power regardless of what pedal started things off. I don't current use either of...

    Boss BCB 60 board

    Hi everyone. Just wanted to ask here if anyone knows for sure if the pedal board in the title will power up any and all Boss pedals. I'm asking as I have older and newer style, meaning the older ones used the ACA power adaptor to power instead of batteries, while the newer ones use the PSA...
