Re: I probably should've done this sooner...(Arrival of NAD)

****** Ryan, you just exist to spoil all of my fun.

Congrats dude, that looks like an extremely fun ride. The more you talk about them the more I'm convinced that one is in my future. Perhaps not my next amp, as I really want a Vox to complete the F/M/V trifecta, but you never know, GAS is a tricky thing. I'd love a Dwauvernaut, but I'm a big amp man at heart. Plus it would be really cool to see what Niall could do with two channels. I'm thinking something in the 50W area, though perhaps I could be convinced to do 100W, with a Hiwatt/Fender/Matamp orgy of a clean channel and a suped-up Plexi/Model T dirty channel.

****ING GAS

It sounds like you want a Falcon.

Oh and by the way what does the HF drive control do?

HF drive is really cool. Its like a prescence knob that adds gain across your high frequency spectrum. I had the amp sounding about 90% univox super fuzz just by fiddling with it.

He should pack that on a tramp steamer and ride it around S. Africa and come to the west coast to play it for us.

Then take it back home on another tramp steamer.

Or I could charter passage on one of those newfangled flyin' machines.

This intrigues me... my two channel hiwatt/model t plexi might be possible

He does 2 channel dwarvenauts. Go to hovercraftamps. Hes got a dwarvenaut builder order form and everything. I know hes got a Sunn and a couple brit options.
 
Re: I probably should've done this sooner...(Arrival of NAD)

ya know, I'm thinking about email him with a link to this thread and seeing if he'll come in and explain a little.

Yeah I've been doing the research. Would need 50+ watts. I emailed him what I wanted and he got back to me in 5 minutes. Got quoted $850+ shipping.

He is an evil genius doing the guitar snob world an extremely generous service. I bet he gets assassinated.

Love the old Land Camera in the background. My Dad worked for Polaroid I have one of those in my jam room. Awesome amp BTW.

Thanks, man. I collect old Polaroids. They're awesome.
 
Re: I probably should've done this sooner...(Arrival of NAD)

Just wanted to add how responsive the amp is to dynamics and volume control. We plugged a very low end stock Vox into it that is by far the best it has ever sounded , when I got to my 335 with the Fralin Pure PAFs I could go from clean to full on shred with just the volume knob. Reading an article about how Larry Carlton chooses amps that is the one thing he requires . Can't say enough how much I like this amp and coming from me that is quite the compliment.

needing clips asap, had to improvise a bit and post this cause of the green sludge sleep machine from 2014:

I'm working on that. I'm having a slight issue with impedance that I'm trying to work out.

Don't fear, when(if) I eventually get this straight I'll post some crappy phone vids or something.
 
Re: I probably should've done this sooner...(Arrival of NAD)

So now that the honeymoon period is over, when should I expect my new amp?
 
Re: I probably should've done this sooner...(Arrival of NAD)

Yeah -

I might suggest some grill cloth - something in...

Flannel! :D

Actually if it didn't kill the highs, it would be uber cool.
