Re: The Well XXXIV - Class is in session, time to get schooled!

I know we have been talking about doing a speaker swap on your amp, but you have ALWAYS hinted at getting a vintage Fender amp or a BadCat type amp (like that one of mine that you always talk about) or a similar kit. When do you think this will come to fruition? I know you just got hitched and are trying to get settled into a new marriage and all that so I totally understand not having timetables yet. Do you have any idea whatsoever or do you plan on trying the cheaper route with a speaker upgrade first?

Currently I'm planning on going for the speaker upgrade. AND if anyone's got a G12H30 for sale, I'm interested!!!

I'd love that Bad Cat... but I'd also like to try out a Lightning clone of sorts... and I'd also love to eventually be getting a nice old Princeton Reverb or a Deluxe Reverb to settle my Fender amp

Like you said, being married has kinda put a bit of a damper of my (larger) GAS purchases... but it's not necessarily a bad thing at all! There's a lot of stuff I WANT but don't NEED and my wife's pretty supportive and cool about most of the gear, she just doesn't want me going and blowing $1500-$2000 on an amp right now. We've got some stuff to pay off and then after that (maybe a year or so) I'll be prepared to take the plunge.


HOWEVER, at the moment (I NEVER thought I'd say this about a CRATE amp) the V16 Palomino Crate amp is EXACTLY what I need.... It's got fine bedroom-level tones and it works great when I take it out and play through the PA system... I honestly have no complaints about it and for the price, it's gotta be one of the best amps out there as far as I'm concerned! I would have never guessed it if I hadn't tried one.

Yessir I am...

The Palomino is what I consider one of the best amps for the money... IMO Tone-wise it gets like an 8.5 out of 10. (10 being a 2 rock or a OLD fender, maybe a bad cat... something along those lines)

I'm hoping with the speaker it'll take me to at least a 9 for bedroom levels and playing mic'd through a PA...

ANY thoughts?!

What's your favorite thing in the world?

What's your favorite thing in the world?

too many to list but at the top of that list

in this order: my wife (though, she's not really a thing), making my wife laugh, music, friends, playing in front of people, teaching and watching a kid "get it" for the first time on anything I'm talking about music-related, concerts, and a good movie... I could go on about things I really like... but in general I enjoy life a lot

how many watts is your palomino and what speaker do you have in it now?
 
Re: The Well XXXIX - Class is in session, time to get schooled!

If you could have one superpower what would it be?

Who is your favorite character that you read about or saw?

And in real life?

Favorite musical discovery that was made possible by this forum. For example is there a band or song that you had no idea was out there, but fell in love with it or them immediately?

15 watts

currently it has in it the stock celestion (not a bad speaker, but I'm just starting to venture out into checking out new speakers


1. If you could have one superpower what would it be?

2. Who is your favorite character that you read about or saw?

3. And in real life?

4. Favorite musical discovery that was made possible by this forum. For example is there a band or song that you had no idea was out there, but fell in love with it or them immediately?

1. the ability to fly without help or limits

2. (I assumed this one to mean fictional character, and #3 to mean non-fictional character) I've always been a fan of Batman, being that he's just a "normal" human kind of guy.... oh, and I'm really into gadgets and he uses gadgets!

3. Real Life = I always liked hearing stories of the American folk hero's like Daniel Boone/Davey Crockett ... so them I guess...

4. favorite musical discovery here hasn't been a band yet, but mostly discoveries in pickup-selections have been the highlights to reading on here


What's the best recent movie you've seen? Any pets?

Best recent movie(s) -

In Theaters - The Dark Knight

Rental - August Rush (start flaming me now :28:)
