Deaf Mans Thread.. Welcome Non-Master Volume Owners

[HOT TUBES 70]

At least with this amp I have "reissue vintage" ringing in my ears... 1959 head in the middle.

Nice Rig Bro !!!! I like it ........

You just need a OFA yellow box !

 

[Frankie]

Bring on the Ampegs! Forge, my bassist, wanted to make an account to post 'em, but I'll save him the trouble.

Left is an early 70's B-25B. It's all tube, 50 watts (2x7027-A), and NMV. On the right is the beast, an early 70's SVT. Also all tube, 300 watts (6x6550!!!), and NMV. It'll also make you involuntarily release your bowels on anything over half. He has those two 8x10 cabinets, plus another 8x10 at home and a 2x15 cabinet.

How's this for a power section? Look at that iron!!

This little guy is NMV also, some 70's B100 100 watt 1x10 combo.

 

[BluesRocker]

Jesus! I bet that SVT weighs a ton! Wonder how it sounds plugging a strat into it anc cranking that beast.. Yummy goodness i believe.

 

[Frankie]

I think it's 95-100lbs actually, somewhere in there. It's a two man lifter unless you're feelin' froggy. I've actually plugged a Strat into that SVT and let it rip. Sounds just like Keef Richards! My Tele in the B-25B is like Keef at volumes you can tolerate with the human ear.

 

[BluesRocker]

Damn.. That is insane..

Yeah, I was thinking some ol Keef for the tone with a strat or tele.

 

[Frankie]

Fuckin' nails it. It also has a great honky tonk sound... if you wanted to play honky tonk at 140db. It really excels at bass though, which it should, because that's what it's for. He's got this one P-Bass he plays with a pair of DiMarzios in it, the damn thing'll make your heart skip a beat it thumps so hard.

 

[BluesRocker]

FUCK YA!!!! Now that is RnR!

 

[Frankie]

Dude's also got a Rickenbacker 4003, Gretsch Broadkaster, T-Bird, Flying V, '57 P-Bass, all kinda nice basses. He ain't fucking around! I let him plug the 4003 into my Marshall, shit was pure Lemmy.

 

[BluesRocker]

Damn.. I have been gassing for a Rick. Never pulled the trigger though..

 

[Papus]

Gotta love Lemmy..... anyone with the words "kill mister" in his name is alright by me

 

[Frankie]

I played one of those Ric pac-man models, it was surprisingly bad ass. Sounded a lot like my Gretsches, but played different. It had a real flat neck, almost like an Ibanez wizard neck.

 

[BluesRocker]

Yeah the one I played on was a 12 string. The neck felt smaller than my Gibson. Like The string spacing was super small.. Felt like a kids guitar.. Played like butter too.

 

[MrBurst]

Count me in, fuck master volumes.

 

[BluesRocker]

Nice burst.. Looks like the second one has a MV mod on it. Is that right? I dont care.. She is still purdy.

 

[johnfv]

I'm in! Here's my Plexi, need to get a pic of it on the purple 4x12. On the topic of jumpering, with a humbucker I can see going bright channel only but I prefer both channels with my Strats. Just sayin...

 

[BluesRocker]

Wow, John.. Shes a beauty.

 

[IbanezMark]

I guess this technically counts eh?!
I'm ready for a red 50 watter 1987 though..soon enough!

 

[BluesRocker]

She counts Mark... I still want to play one of those.

 

[DirtySteve]

Oh, well in that case, here's mine...

...didn't think they'd count cause I'm not going deaf from them!

 

[BluesRocker]

Nice steve! Yeah they count cause they are NMV. But 5 watts can still get fairly loud.
