    Marshall/Celestion G12 Vintage Differences?

    Reading through this post it seems like I should have my two G12s for the 1960AV reconed rather then replaced.

    Marshall/Celestion G12 Vintage Differences?

    I just swapped some and they physically identical. Same magnet, same coil, and same 444 cone. The only obvious difference was the name.

    Marshall/Celestion G12 Vintage Differences?

    Jumping in on this thread hoping for some advice. I just picked up 1960AV 16 ohm cab dated 1996. I paid $200 for it but the bottom two speakers are shredded. I have two Chinese made V30s but they are 8 ohm so I replaced all four speakers by using those and two Classic Lead 80s and wired it 8 ohm...

    1984 Gibson Explorer before and after

    Mine is a bit of an odd one because it's a factory second with a maple neck and I can't find anything anywhere about Gibson making them with maple necks. It's a pretty killer guitar though. Explorers sound so beefy. Like an SG on steroids. The locking "nut" sucks though. It's actually behind the...

    1984 Gibson Explorer before and after

    That guitar would have likely come from the factory with "Dirty Fingers". That's what mine has. Those would have been uncovered. Plus that guitar would not have come from the factory with any pickguard. It looks way closer to stock now.:hbang:

    1984 Gibson Explorer before and after

    I have an 85 that started out black but we stripped it down and I put a satin finish on it. It looks very very similar. Mines a bit darker though and the neck is maple. I swapped out the Kahler for a TOM.

    Slash's rig on Guitargeek.com

    A picture of Slash's amps at Donington in 88. I believe those are three 2210's stacked up there. This must be before he discovered the Jubes.

    The Slash age group thread

    I was 12 or so when Appetite came out and I wasn't that impressed with the glam look and the Brian Johnson style vocals. Fast forward to 1988 when SCOM hit MTV and they looked like a different band. That solo changed my life forever and I decided I wanted to learn to play. Then Lies came out...

    Orange Circle Of Tone

    I just picked up a Tiny Terror and I have some questions about speakers. I'm thinking about going with the 1x12 and adding a second one later or just going for a 2x12. I want my rig to have a small footprint and be easy to carry but not so much I sacrifice tone. My other question is how does the...

    Wylde Audio - Zakk leaving Gibson and Marshall

    I never claimed to like the stuff I was simply offended by the asinine assumptions about the fans. Because you guys don't like him or his new gear or whatever you squawk like a bunch of gossiping women then accuse someone of behaving like a 12 year old? Hen shit I say.

    Wylde Audio - Zakk leaving Gibson and Marshall

    Haters jealous because he has made a successful career out of self indulgent noodling. It's a fun scene and a good time get over yourselves. :shred2:

    Wylde Audio - Zakk leaving Gibson and Marshall

    This nails it. I've seen BLS 3 times and the first time was kind of lame and I'll admit I'm also not a fan of the live show solo as it is pretty stale most nights. That being said he lives breathes and literally bleeds Black Label Society. It's not a stage look it's him all the time. A lot of...

    2205 2210 Mods Thread!

    Yea but I almost never switch back and forth though. If I back off the normal volume too much it loses it's character. I wish it was a 2205. I hate hauling this heavy sumbitch around everywhere.

    2205 2210 Mods Thread!

    The Normal channel is very flat but when it's turned up it really grinds. I added a resonance knob while I was in there too that helped smooth out the lows. The boost channel sounds compressed compared to the normal channel and the high frequencies aren't as smooth. The normal channel is...

    2205 2210 Mods Thread!

    I took all the mods out and started over and it works again. I had at least one cap backwards as far as polarity. I put my old RCA gray plate in V2 and ended up using a 5.6 uf bypass cap V2A. It sounds okay but now I have a shitload of gain in the Normal channel. It's comparable to the Boost...

    2205 2210 Mods Thread!

    It's really all just experimenting to help me understand how the circuits work. RickyLee talked about adding those along with a 12AY7 and getting closer to a "Fenderish" sound so I thought I would try it except I did not have a 12AY7 so I tried the 12AU7 because it also has a lower gain factor...

    https://soundcloud.com/user763925578/5-mix-m4a/s-ztP20 This is what it sounds like with the 12AU7. Everything is dialed to 12 o' clock except the normal volume and reverb are backed off a notch

    2205 2210 Mods Thread!

    I used a 10uF bypass cap on V2A and a 22uF on V2B. Its weird because it works with the 12AU7 it's just a little thin. The boost channel appears to be unaffected no matter what I use in V2.

    Wondering what info anyone has on a Fender Studio Bass amp

    My problem with selling it is it's really cool and it's now the oldest piece of equipment I own. I don't know what to ask for it. Even though I paid very little I'd rather keep it than let it go for less than it's worth. Then there is the issue of shipping it as it is a monster. Do you still...
