Alright, i need some $$$ big time, so i am considering selling some of my stuff. neither item is positively up for sale, im first trying to see if anyone is interested. first up is my epiphone valve junior head w/ JJ tubes in it along with a geezer sound 112 cab loaded w/ a celestion v30. the...

i am planning on getting a new set of pups for my 1981 fender bullet. the bullet only has 2 single coil, tone, volume, 3way. the pups as far as i can tell are strat-sized. is it possible to wire a strat pup in a 1 tone, 1 volume, 3 way setup? if not, would two mini buckers work?

so i just ordered and epi valve jr head, and i need a good speaker cab to go along with it. as of right now i am trying to decide between an Avatar 112 with a celestion v30, or a Geezer Sound 112 with a v30. Anybody have any experience with either of these cabinets? should i look into any...

Are they any good? i am looking at an 12ax7 and an EL84 to replace the stock tubes in an Epi Valve Jr Head.

So i go to the music department of music here at UMT to register as a music major, and i find out that even though i am planning on majoring in music composition and technology, i need to declare and instrument of concentration and study with the professor of that instrument. so i chose...

I want to bring one of my axes on vacation with me to hawaii, but i have never traveled on a plane before with a guitar. It sounds like i might be able to take one as a checked carry one, which means it would go into a closet in the cabin. or i could just check one as luggage. I havnt decided if...

i am thinking about painting the front of my acoustic guitar, but i wanted to check here first to see if that would somehow mess up the tone or acoustics of the guitar. it has a spruce top and a clear gloss finish, and i was thinking that acrylic paint would be the best choice. so.... is it a...

im probably gonna end up getting an epi valve junior or one of those little H&K tube preamps.... so i wana get a nice little 1x12 cab. any ideas? aslo - would a 1x10 be better?

I am considering an epi valve junior (probably the head), and i was wondering if anyone has some clips of theirs. I know several guys around here have one, so if any of you have clips i would really like to hear them. from what i hear, those things are a bargain for the tone...

so for college i need a pretty small amp for my dorm. i posted about this a while ago under the conclusion that i wanted a fender champ. i am not so positive this is what i want, but the champ is still one of my top choices. i am looking for some other amps that fit the criteria. i want a tube...

i just played a show at my school during our lunch hours in our auditorium today, and i have never been happier with my tone in a performance. we had a somewhat decent PA setup for vocals, but i decided to use my 57 for my amp. i decided to go real simple with mic placement - center of the cone...

here is a clip of my band playing live at my schools talent show this week. the first song is one of our originals, and the second song is our cover of the Phantom of the Opera... we are kinda well known for doing that song. im playing most of the lead licks. during phantom, im playing the...

im looking at good dorm room amps and i think one of my best bets is a fender champ. i wana know anything you guys can tell me about them, and yes i have already searched the forums for past info, which i found helpful btw. is there a real big difference between the silverface and blackface...

i searched this topic up in the forums and read what i could, and i found out that to test what a 250k tone pot would sound like with the JB, to just turn my current 500k pot to about 6 or 7, and that is what a 250k pot will give me. can i do the same thing for my volume pot? thanks...

so i played a gig today in my school gym with my Atomic, and i noticed a little problem that has gotten worse over time. at high volumes, the amp is less than flattering, which was not the case when i first got it. i had the master volume between 6 and 7 for the entire gig and the tone was...
