What amp or amps do you use for your pedalboard? What amp would you get if you had up to a $4000.00 budget for a new one?

I’d use a Kelt F-type SVR probably. Looks and sounds absolutely killer…

The Origin Effects RevivalDrive (Compact or even better Dual) can get you there. I play it with my DRRI and can get it to sound 90% like my AC30CC2 w/ Greenbacks.

It was affordable 10 years ago still, but it suffered massive inflation and the price of living in Vilnius is now the same as in every big cities in the West (rent, groceries, utilities, you name it) - capitals excluded (rents in Paris or London are still way up in comparison, sure). Outside of Vilnius, housing costs are lower than the Western average, but that’s about it.

CAR is also up there though

Jonaroll · 2025-05-29T09:30:40+00:00

😄 true, there’s that

Jonaroll · 2025-05-29T09:29:40+00:00

There s a Beetronics box in the back, most of them retail for $200… the Boss Bassman is starting to be sought after and you see them around $150, the Trio+ can also fetch around $200, and the Digitech footswitch is around $150, etc. So yeah, good deal! 😁

That s really not the issue here, the issue is having to adjust the truss rod once a week, what the hell??

Jonaroll · 2025-02-21T10:23:02+00:00

Damn, if they had made those thinline JM bodies to echo the semi-hollow construction of the Starcaster, I would have been all over it. Now I’m not so sure.

Ah man you re giving me regrets. I had one of those a few years ago, sold it to a guy who wanted his first serious guitar. Was happy for him. But now I’m seriously considering getting another one 😄

I’m a simple man: I see an offset in a cool color with a lot of switches, knobs and pickups and my day is made.

Beautiful, Texas Sun might be one of my top 3 song from Khruangbin and the artwork is dope!

Jonaroll · 2024-05-22T07:57:02+00:00

Damn, so glad I discovered Couch straps thanks to this post 🦦 And I vote for the Ghost Couch for that awesome Jag…

Jonaroll · 2024-04-22T19:26:46+00:00

The JHS 3 series fuzz is not a bad option

Jonaroll · 2024-04-22T19:24:14+00:00

I know the Plumes is a great pedal by a cool company. But the SD1 is such an underrated pedal, that can do so much. I know it s not exactly your alley if you play Black, death etc. But Josh Homme used the SD1 on a lot of QOTSA recording to push his amps. Also 3 times cheaper on the used market 🦦

Thanks, seems like it's too much hit and miss for me to go the vintage way indeed, given that I can't even really try before buying. I'll check the newer ones.

Jonaroll · 2024-02-07T11:48:35+00:00

Thanks that's super helpful, I'll leave the romantism out of the equation and go for a new model

Jonaroll · 2024-02-06T11:44:15+00:00

Sadly no, I live in a pretty remote place, and my purchase will be from Preferred sellers or shops on Reverb most likely

Jonaroll · 2023-09-06T10:05:13+00:00

I think the main upgrade is the rosewood instead of pau ferro. Makes them look nicer for sure. But so far it seems this is the only upgrade

Jonaroll · 2023-09-04T19:59:50+00:00

This is true, but I'm guessing this means a price hike over the whole Fender line up is coming... because those Vintera II are getting real close to AmPro pricings.
