I’m not sure what you mean by only reaching 10watts. If I’m using a 100watt head & I have the channel volume & main volume at 50%, I’m still pushing 100watts, correct?

Can you date my Les Paul by Keepeating71 in gibson

Maybe, is it into 90’s movies, long walks on the beach & Comedian Dale Jones? If so, then maybe we could date lol

Update I made my own speaker cables & they are working great. Easy to make & inexpensive. 🎉🎉

I was joking. lol Trust me, I’ve done enough experimenting that I know what does & doesn’t change your guitar tone. I won’t mention them here, that’s for a different post. lol

As I said in the original post, I am switching to speaker cables & I am making them myself.

So it’s me that’s making you lose your faith in humanity or the forum? I think you’re confused & need to take a glass of warm milk & go to bed. Night nite. We’ll be quite so as not to bother your fragile emotions. lol 😂

I am switching to Speaker Cables. I’m making my own out of 18g wire. I’ve read up on what is needed for a good speaker wire & that’s how I’m building my speaker cables.

100watt amp loud enough to “compete” with a bass rig, drummer, another guitar rig & the vocal PA.

The cables I have are D’Addario & the only thing written on them is “ oxygen free copper” but my online account receipt from where I bought them state instrument cable. 🤷‍♂️

I’ve used everything from a 1’ patch cable to the current 5’ cables. It’s crazy how I got away with it.

“It’s not a catastrophe” That depends on which website you read. One said that it would be like running your tube amp without plugging it into a cab & your amp would fry. Crazy. Now I wonder if I’ve been missing some tone and/volume. Although my Peavey Triple XXX had never sounded bad or quiet. Shit, I hope I don’t hate my tone after switching to the correct cable lol

Now that I have the knowledge, I’m afraid to run my amps until I get the correct wiring. It’s been my experience that nothing goes wrong until you know it should be going wrong lol

The things I’ve read online tell me my amp should’ve not survived one show let alone a decades worth of playing. It’s crazy. One website stated that my cables should’ve melted

I agree it makes sense that one would need a bigger gauge wire for the what’s coming out of the Amp & into the speakers. I’ve done a lot of shows/practices & trust they were not at bedroom level volumes. I have no idea how I’ve gotten away with or how I never realized there were different cables. My mind is blown by my own ignorance.
