    I've attached a few pics of the slugs/screws and the measurements on a dial caliper. Standard 3/16" dia. x 1/2" long slugs (.187" x .500"), and the socket head set screws are #10-32 x 1/2".

    ANYONE HAVE AN ORANGE ROCKER 15 TERROR HEAD? LOOKING FOR SOME OPINIONS.

    So I've been playing Marshalls, Crates, Fenders, Boogies, VOX, Peaveys, Egnator, etc, heads, combos, for MANY years. But I'm looking for a newer, heavy, kind of darkish sound. Something a Marshall/VOX can't do. I've been looking really hard at the Orange Amps. Not totally sure which I want to...

    importance of matching amp with the right speakers

    Re: importance of matching amp with the right speakers I have a quad of the Eminence made Jet City JCA 12-1716 speakers in an old Crate cab. They sound great! Pretty close to my Celestion G12T-75's. I believe the JCA 12-1716 is actually an Eminence China made EGTR-SA1712-16, with a blue frame.

    INVADER & MOD ******** CURE FOR THE "DARK" TONE

    So I've had an Invader installed in one of my guitars for about a year. Great pickup. But compared to my SG with a 498T in the bridge position, it's kind of "dark" sounding. Wasn't cutting through on solos real well, and didn't want to have to readjust my amp settings when using that guitar. So...
