First off, man, what a sweet looking rig!
Secondly, I'm a little confused. You said that the Origin needs a pedal to get the gain of the SV? At what volume? I mean, the Master volume and Gain helps a bit on the Origin, and while it does have to be loud, are you saying that the SV has more gain?
Honestly, I don't think the new Origin cabs are a bad option. Yes they are probably MDF, and no they don't come with great speakers, but they look vintage and I'm sure are worth the $399 price.
I honestly don't have an issue with MDF. Over on TGP, MDF gets a bad rep, but to me if it is sturdy and saves some money, I'm ok with it. I just can't get over how good the cab looks in person though. Makes the entire stack look legit!
You know, I've considered getting a DSL20H to pair with the Origin, and both would cost under $1000 together. I think my only reservation on the SV20 is how different would it really sound at the clean levels I'll be using it for as a pedal platform. Sure, I can crank it occasionally, but it...
The Greenbacks are waiting at the house to get installed. They arrived yesterday but haven't had a minute to do the swap. 70/80s are indeed harsh and toppy. The bad thing to me is how sizzly they sound.
The Origin cab seems pretty good to me. I'm sure it is MDF, but a lot of low end gear is these days. It looks the business, and is heavy, but time will tell I suppose.
I can crank an amp every now and then, but I'll mainly use the amp as a clean platform. The Origin sounds tight with less...
I just purchased an Origin 20 head and new Origin vertical 2x12 cab. I got a great deal and got both for $760...yes, you read that right haha. It sounds really good, but I can't help but wonder if the Studio Vintage would be a better long term option, both quality and sound wise. My only...
Thanks guys. I REALLY want a Two Rock head and cab, but I've been getting so much positive reaction to this guitar, that I'm contemplating keeping her.
Up for sale is my R7 VOS. I got it from a collector in a trade and I haven't used it much. It's the best LP I've ever played, but I'm a strat guy with hopes of buying a Two Rock, so needless to say this is just too much LP for me.
I will try to get more pics, but comes with all case candy...
Up for sale is my LR Baggs M1A pickup. Only used a few times in a church and that's it. I no longer play at the church so I don't need this anymore. No issues, sounds really good. I'll post a picture tomorrow when I can.
$135 shipped PP'd. Comes with original box and paperwork.
I'm a little torn as to what to do with my DSL. I'd sure love to keep it, but I simply can't justify keeping it just for a nice crunch tone. I've been putting off buying a DRRI for months because I wanted to give Marshall a fair shake, and while the crunch tones are good, there just isn't a...
