Amp arrived today. .:)
Its too much of an amp for this bedroom shredder wannabe but sounds good at low volume.
 
Re: Amp Pic

very nice man.
what do u mean when you say its too much?
looks like a good size for the bedroom man.
 
Re: Amp Pic

I appreciate it guys! Its not too much amp what I meant was I can't crank it where I live at least not at night.
I guess I was playing it down didn't want to brag brag brag.
I love it though and by far its the most expensive I've owned and its clear as a bell man.
The tone is just beautiful. Very musical tone, clean high gain crunch my favorite couldn't be more pleased.

Not to go off topic but have you considered an attenutor?
 
Re: Amp Pic

Cool rig. One thing you can do to tame it down is use something like an Alesis Nanoverb in the FX loop, and then use the FX unit's master volume as a secondary master. It's like bending a garden hose in half to control the water flow. It's a cheap solution to getting more juice out of the amp at lower volumes.
 
Re: Amp Pic

Great looking amp, I hear great things about them. Now, clean up those cables and boxes and give that thing a proper area to live in. Also, consider an amp stand. I have one for my JCM combo, and it angles it so the sound projects into the room better. This also allowed me to play at slightly lower volumes and still hear well. I think I have a pic somewhere...hold on.

Not a pic intended to show the stand, but I think you get the idea. $20 at Guitar Center. Looks cool too.

Should it be done with the amp's master volume turned up and the Nanoverb's volume down or the other way around?

I watched Joe do this at his place after UGD. I think he basically set the amp up to be pretty loud, getting some good tube distortion, then having the nanoverbs volume up higher, turned it down to attenuate. It sounded really good. Of course every damn amp he had in there sounded really good. Especially that danm Silver Jubilee.
 
Re: Amp Pic

Thanks for the input! I been kind of afraid to put it on a stand won''t that make a mark on it? Guess the new will have to wear off :)
I'm going to look into some kind of attenutor perhaps.
It sounds real good like it is really.
 
Re: Amp Pic

Naw, the stand won't make a mark. The contact points are rubberized, so no damage.
 
Re: Amp Pic

pretty guitar!!

Yea thanks man. I've never seen a top like this one I didn't special order or nothing, not to say there's not any out there though.

Thats definitely a nice group you've put together there!!:bowdown:
