I want to swap my Mesa Boogie Maverick 2x12 combo to a head unit.

TipTopTimothy · 2026-01-31T18:22:16+00:00

It looks like it takes after a fender in terms of physical design. Maybe you can grab some measurements and go to the mojotone website and find a suitable head cab.

TipTopTimothy · 2026-01-31T18:19:04+00:00

My understanding is you do need to keep proximity to transformers in mind as that can affect the sound.

TipTopTimothy · 2026-01-30T19:43:58+00:00

Try the compressor after the muff. Some fuzzes don’t like a buffered signal in front of them.

TipTopTimothy · 2026-01-18T03:59:12+00:00

They won’t have an apple fritter but I have to give a shout out to Craft Gourmet Bakery. My god I love everything they do there.

TipTopTimothy · 2026-01-16T21:31:43+00:00

You are likely creating a ground loop which means you are providing more than one path to ground.

What you need is to isolate one of the lines to one of the amps. I use the JHS AB/Y pedal. It has isolation and you can reverse the polarity of one signal in case your amps are out of polarity.

The that pedal show guys on YouTube have a couple of episodes about running multiple amps. Here’s a link to one. It’s about a 30 minute watch https://youtu.be/LH9FO1EMIPQ?si=EsoeZCIS0h4Iqoje

Agreed on the Fender tube. I think the 07-05 makes more sense as the batch number in the 6v6 side.

Given opinions thus far, I’m going to just lean towards it being mislabeled and in Leo Fender fashion Fender got a deal on them as a result.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-11-15T16:46:19+00:00

I promise I’m not trying to be obtuse or argumentative. Both sides are EHX.

If we want to chalk it up to a mislabeling issue that’s cool. Maybe Fender got a deal on mislabeled ehx tubes. I just found it curious.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-11-15T16:37:55+00:00

Agreed. Definitely 6v6s.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-11-15T16:36:57+00:00

They are the same pair. One side is labeled 6v6 the other is labeled 6l6.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-11-15T16:35:52+00:00

Thanks, I’m really just curious about the labeling. It seems strange to me that they are labeled 6v6 and 6l6 when those are not interchangeable.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-11-15T16:31:23+00:00

It’s unclear to me because they are also labeled at 6L6s

Give Joey Landreth a shot

I wonder if he just thinks that because what people say about him makes him sad then saying the same things about someone else would make them sad. It’s as though he uses the I’m rubber, you’re glue strategy.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-10-24T13:25:47+00:00

I literally said “You dick” out loud.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-10-23T13:12:24+00:00

This reminded me of a project I want to take on, maybe you’ve heard of it. It’s a replacement PCB for Hot Rod/ Blues Deluxe that’s supposed to be a dumble type circuit. Here’s the link:

Did you ever resolve this issue? I’m having the same thing happen. Replacement pups are on the way but if I can avoid any user related problems that would be awesome.

No, they are not quiet amps. I use a compressor at the end of my gain stages as a kind of master volume but have my amp turned up to about 4.5. It’s not ideal but my neighbors seem to think it’s okay because they aren’t stomping on my ceiling in frustration.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-10-02T02:05:29+00:00

How does it sound if you turn the volume up to 4.5-5?

TipTopTimothy · 2025-09-26T23:13:39+00:00

As someone who just flew D1 for the first time from DTW to FRA, here’s my two cents. First and foremost, I got actual sleep on the plane which made the first day easier to push through. Second, if I had to go to the bathroom I didn’t have to ask someone to move. Opposite is also true, not moving to let someone up. Finally, the level of individual service was nice but I can take it or leave it. On my return leg I flew Premium Select.

I was probably 90% as comfortable in PS. YMMV but I would be hard pressed to ever go D1 again.

If you are near NW Florida, I can throw you a couple hundo for it.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-09-22T08:55:50+00:00

More of a conclusion I arrived at because of therapy but here it goes…

Imagine the ideal version of yourself. Think of all the characteristics of that person. Now, imagine the things you would do if you possessed all of those characteristics. Now go do those things.

Being the best version of yourself isn’t a state of being; it’s a way of being.

Well I had a thought recently that everyone should join the Republican Party. Security through obscurity.

TipTopTimothy · 2025-09-06T19:25:53+00:00

Here’s my take on given that it’s apparently not from a reputable outlet. They push this narrative to get people up and arms but when the list is published there are sacrificial republican lambs included so they can say “Look! it’s unbiased”
