    MIM Strat Appraisal

    Not sure if htis is the right forum for this but...I'm selling my 2003 MIM stratocaster white/maple fretboard to my english teacher, but am having trouble naming a price. I've tried watching ebay for how much these go for but havn't had much luck. It's an HSS fat strat that I paid $400 for...

    Clean practice amp...

    What would you guys suggest I try out if I'm in need of a low-powered (bedroom/dormroom levels) amp with good cleans? I'm also on a budget of $250.

    Tacoma DM-9

    I have a chance to pick up a 1996 Tacoma DM-9 for $300 and was just thinking I should run this by you guys before I pull the trigger. I still have to inspect/play it in person, but from the pics there appears to be only a few cosmetic flaws. My questions for you are: -Does anyone have any...

    SS/Modelling Amp for Cleans

    I've finally come to the stark realization that a tube amp is not reasonable for the volumes I play at. I only play at home and would like an amp to use for sparkly clean tones that I can use my effects on. I play blues/jazz/mellow alternative. I'm just looking for a believable clean channel...

    Retubed the Pro Junior...

    and.... :dance: I emailed Bob at Eurotubes Friday afternoon and told him what I was after, he quickly responded with his recommendation and I ordered those JJ's from him around 5. The tubes were here waiting for me when I got home from school today and I put them right in. All I can say is...

    Microphonic Tubes

    I think that the tubes in my Pro Junior are microphonic. I'm hearing some very strange noises that do not sound like amp hum or 60 cycle hum. It sounds like wind blowing through a microphone. I also get some odd oscilating tones at times. When I hit the tubes right I also get some odd...

    Aramat Effects

    Anyone have any experience with them? www.aramateffects.com I'm seriously interested in the Mojo Fuzz. After playing all the fuzzes Guitar Center had to offer I came to the conclusion that I'm going to have to go boutique to get the tone I'm after. I'm considering either the Aramat Mojo...

    Pro Junior Replacement Speaker (10")

    Just curious to see what you guys would advise for a 10" replacement speaker for this amp. I want sparkly cleans with punchy bass. Under $75 US would be a plus also.

    New Amp

    Sold my Peavey Classic 30 this weekend and am leaving right now to pick this up. I emailed the seller since he's local and he gave me a good deal on it. Just need a good OD/Fuzz and I'll be content....for now.:dance:

    What type of fuzz do you use?

    I'm just curious as to what fuzz pedals everyone is using, and what types of tones they're getting. I've been listening to a ton of OD clips the last couple of weeks and I think I've realized a fuzz is what I really want :smack: Any advice for some mellow/non-muddy fuzz ala hendrix-bold as love?

    Low Gain Marshall OD

    I was just curious to what pedals are out there for getting low gain marshall OD (ala early jimi hendrix). Only two I've really seen marketed towards this are the Fulltone OCD and Lovepedal COT50. Anything else I should check out?

    Tweed vs Marshall

    If I understand my amp history correctly, marshall based his original amps off some fender tweed amps. Yet I still see both 'tweed' and 'marshall' used to describe tones. How would you differentiate between the two? Song examples would be useful as well =)

    Fender Pro/Blues Junior

    I havn't been pleased with my Classic 30 lately, so today I went out amp browsing. I play at home 99% of the time, but still need enough juice for an occasional jam. Amps Played: Peavey Delta Blues 2x10 + 1x15 Crate Palomino V16 Crate Palomino V32 Ampeg Jet II reissue Fender Champ (circa 1975)...

    Effect Loops

    I was just wondering what the advantage of running modulation (i think that's what you plug into the loop) effects through an effects loop over running them straight into the input. I love delay pedals and will be getting one sometime in the future, but I might not have an amp with an effects...

    Grounding Question...

    I'm sure that my rig (MIM Strat->Peavey Classic 30) has a grounding issue. No matter what pickup combination I have selected there is an amplified buzz that goes away when I touch anything metal. After searching I discovered this is a grounding problem. Since I'm swapping electronics soon, I...
