I’ve had the Vox VTX100 and loved it but ending up selling it. The new modeler for Vox is the Cambridge 50. Does it have the preprogrammed tones from famous songs like the Vox Valvetronix series? I liked that feature to get a good baseline for a genre. Anybody try the Vox Cambridge? I like the...

Hello folks I have a 2020 Gibson Les Paul 1950s Slash Standard and I want a SG for my collection. For 2020 there is an Epiphone Standard with Alnico V Classic Pros and the 61 reissue with Alnico II Pro Buckers. I’m stuck between which one to buy. My Les Paul has the Alnico II Gibson Slash...

My new 2020 Standard SG has a 490T stock in bridge. I’m playing it to decide if it’s a keeper and so far I’m indifferent. Anyone keep the 490T in the bridge or should I steer towards an Alnico V like a WLH or Alnico IV like Saturday Night Special? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m eyeing either a SV20 Combo or SV20 head/140W 2x12 SV cabinet. Question: can I get the combo amp and SV 140W 2x12 cabinet and connect the combo to the cabinet? I want the portability of the combo but the volume of the cabinet when jamming at home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone get this? Amp sounds great when playing. https://youtu.be/6TP0gCyOezQ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

New DSL 20 CR “Fizzy, Raspy” Ultra Gain I’m really enjoying my brand new DSL 20 CR. The only issue is the tone of the Ultra Chain is “fizzy” or “buzzing”. Anyone found a way to turn down the fizz? I’m considering getting an over drive pedal to boost the classic gain channel. Any suggestions...

First tube amp on its way...Marshall DSL 20 CR. I want a boost type pedal and was considering the Tube Screamer or Boss Distortion. Anyone have a preference between these two? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve got a DSL20CR on the way. Now that this amp has been out for a couple years, anyone care to share some reviews? This will be my first tube amp. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of my VOX VT100X modeler but I want to add a tube to the stable. The DSL20CR fits my budget and the size will work for what I’m wanting to accomplish. I want to get a delay and maybe even a reverb pedal. Any recommendations for a delay pedal and reverb pedal...

For Les Pauls, what height did you folks that have the WLH pups do for the bridge? Also for Les Pauls what height do you folks that have 57 Classic neck pups do for the neck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I see many folks have different pups in different guitars. Anyone have their favorite pups in multiple guitars? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I wasn’t crazy about the tone of the Gibson Super 57 bridge in my LP and it dawned on me maybe it’s the pickup height. Went and got my gauge and sure enough pups were quite low from factory. Put the bass end on 3/32 and treble 1/16 from string (fretted at 22 fret) and voila, totally...

My Les Paul has a 10 dB boost on the Super 57 pup. If I swap that with a WLH bridge, will I lose the boost feature? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is a set I pulled from my Epiphone Les Paul Traditional Pro II. 4 leads for coil split. Great PAF tone. $60 shipped Pay Pal Only Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just listed these on Reverb but here is a set of Epiphone Alnico Classic Pros I pulled from my Epi G-400 Pro. They sound similar to Whole Lotta Humbuckers. Great pups. $60 shipped. Pay Pal Only. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
