    Favorite pedals for trippyness

    Random thread but hey why not... What are your favorite pedals for when you want to trip out and change things up from the usual? Mine has to be my Whammy V in classic mode in octave up pitch bend and my Boss tera echo combined. I love pick scraping while holding down the Tera Echo for trippy...

    New old amp day- 60s Traynor YBA-1

    Re: New old amp day- 60s Traynor YBA-1 Yeah he sent me schematics and pictures of inside before we traded. Looks pretty clean and works with no noise. He himself works on amps but I think the LarMar Master volume mod was done by someone else as the tube thing done by another tech. It has a...

    New old amp day- 60s Traynor YBA-1

    Traded my Hamer USA Sunburst for this head as I don't need another guitar and did need a powerful head for my stereo setup(to match my other Ampeg) This thing is awesome...I had a 70s model before but it was more beatup and just didn't sound as good as this one. Only played it clean at home so...

    Anyone else using a Spider Capo?

    Just grabbed one of these today as I LOVE open and alternate tunings but hate messing around with my guitars strings and switching guitars several times for different songs....so I decided to try a spider capo. 40 bucks for a piece of plastic and rubber is pretty stupid but I won't go into that...

    Is a setup needed going from .10s to .11s ?

    Re: Is a setup needed going from .10s to .11s ? How do you adjust intonation ? is there a guideline or ?? I know it has to do with the bridge but the bridge on my Artist is one of those Gibralter bridges. Here is a pic of the same model I have

    Is a setup needed going from .10s to .11s ?

    I am using my Ibanez Artist and want to go to .11 gauge strings as I hit pretty hard but am worried about warping the neck. I love this guitar and don't want to damage it so I figured I would ask you gurus what to do. Is a setup needed ? The scale length is the same as a Les Paul I'd say. Thanks

    One Amp, One Cab, One Guitar

    Re: One Amp, One Cab, One Guitar Ampeg GVT15H head into my Peavey ported 1x15 cab. I love adding this to my other Ampegs for a stereo setup but it sounds pretty good on its own too. Its like a baby V4!

    Once you go stereo...you don't go back !

    Finally got around to doing a stereo setup as my Boss Tera Echo has stereo ouputs. It was a revelation..there is no way I can EVER go back to one amp. I finally got that room filling sound I have always wanted, even at low volumes. I put my Ampeg Reverb Rocket 50 watt 2x12 at one end of the...

    Anyone else using 15" speakers with guitar ?

    I recently got a 80s/90s Peavey Ported PA cab with 15" scorpion speaker and horn... Been running my heads into the bi amp lo jack to just use the speaker Sounds really good! So much low end and fullness even at low volume and fills the room nicely. I find when I go back to my 12" cabs and amps...

    Time for another Show Your Pedal Board thread!

    Re: Time for another Show Your Pedal Board thread! Loving this setup.. did add a Joyo British to the end though to run into my Fender solid state M-80 as a preamp. My favorite pedal on there right now is the Triple Wreck by Wampler... It does light breakup to crunchy distortion and with the...

    Using PA Enclosure as guitar cab ?

    Ok noob questions coming up so beware... I might be getting a Peavey SP5ti 15" with horn enclosure with 8 ohm full range inputs for free. I was curious if I could plug my 100 watt solid state or 15 watt tube head with speaker cable into this enclosure safely ? The speaker in it is rated at 500...

    Fender Black carpet M-80 SS head output ?

    Hey guys I have been using my Fender solid state m-80 head set clean into my Ampeg VT-22s internal speakers for the past week... sounds really killer with my pedals for dirt and has so much volume and bass on it, I barely get it to 1 on the dial and when I kick on both switches on my Wampler...

    Boutique to EHX... NPD

    I have been through so many Big Muff variants and boutique clones... mostly Wren and Cuff. I was never really satisfied completely so I kept selling them... I picked up a Bass Big Muff today in a trade and I love it! It is like a beefier Russian Big Muff.. tons of midrange and the tone knob is...
