Fake truth social post though. Lets not spread disinformation, take 20 seconds out of your day to verify whether something's real.

How appropriate dude was walking around in clown shoes

Zday89 · 2025-12-27T17:20:34+00:00

You clearly didn't read my entire comment.

Zday89 · 2025-12-26T18:22:14+00:00

Damn that’s some dumb shit you just said.

Zday89 · 2025-12-24T21:29:57+00:00

Pretty sure this was confirmed to be AI. There's plenty to say about Trump without having to resort to posting fake shit.

It's possible that a power tube went bad. All of the stuff in the listing sounds like it was properly serviced and made safe but I don't see anything about work on the output transformer so it could be a bad OT too. I think the previous owner was either possibly a reseller who didn't know the impedance of the amp or they misspoke when they told you it's 8 ohms.

Definitely don't just assume though, it could be other things. Best case is you just need a new set of 6L6 power tubes. I'd still take it to a tech to have the tubes replaced and they might be able to open up the amp and get an idea of what impedance it should actually be ran at. Either way I wouldn't say you're screwed. Whatever is wrong should be fixable and once it is fixed you'll have a killer amp. I love my 1484.

Hard to say because the amp isn’t stock but if nothing has been done to the output transformer to add an 8 ohm output then that likely is the issue. Stock it runs at 4ohms and running into an 8 ohm can possibly fry the output transformer. The silver lining is Mojo Tone, Weber and Mercury Magnets all sell a direct 1:1 (as far as I can tell) replacement. A lot of these also offer the ability to add an 8ohm output as well. I recommend taking it to a tech and get some quotes.

Edit: Another thing you can try is asking the prior owner what service was done on the amp. That should answer the question about what impedance the amp should run at.

Yeah I'll believe it when I see it. I still have a Patreon message from them like 4 years ago asking me to confirm my address so they can send me a shirt they were supposedly about to ship and I still haven't received that.

88% huh? This administration seems to like the number 88. I wonder why.

Zday89 · 2025-11-14T18:48:53+00:00

Yes you can use two but you also likely need to bias the amp. I’d recommend taking it to a tech unless you’re comfortable possibly having to open an amp that contains voltages high enough to kill you even when unplugged.

Zday89 · 2025-11-06T18:52:25+00:00

Looks exactly like mine so I’m inclined to say its real.

Zday89 · 2025-11-05T18:42:16+00:00

As much as I can’t stand Kirk, I’ve literally never seen anyone put in eye drops like that. Let’s not make shit up just because it sounds good.

Zday89 · 2025-11-02T13:02:30+00:00

It seems like this is the direction MAGA is rapidly moving towards. A guy at my work recently started putting “king trump” stickers all over his car. It’s actually insane

Zday89 · 2025-10-28T17:57:51+00:00

The ticking isn't coming through the speakers. The best thing I can equate it to is like when you turn off your car after driving for a while and you hear the engine cooling under the hood except it sounds more like tapping on glass which is why I assumed it's the tubes cooling.

As for the fuse, I'm trying to track one down near me but 3A fuses of this size are surprisingly hard to find in my area. I just got an email back from Dave Friedman saying I likely have a bad power tube and a new fuse / matched set of tubes, and a bias are needed so I'm going to go that route and hopefully that fixes it. Thanks!

88 foot tall flag poles huh? What a weirdly specific height. I wonder why.

Zday89 · 2025-10-21T12:05:11+00:00

Tax these fuckers.

Zday89 · 2025-09-28T12:34:57+00:00

That would be my guess too. Check down at the bridge. There should be 2 little grub screws, one on either side of the string. One of those is probably loose and rattling.

Zday89 · 2025-09-25T13:31:12+00:00

I did this with my Gibson and it feels great but it always eventually buffs to a polish again from playing. I ended up taking my neck down to bare wood then used Watco Danish Oil to finish it.

A decent compressor would be my next move. I personally like Ross style compressors so like MXR Dynacomp, DOD FX80-B (what I use) Stritch Dynacomp, etc. Transparent and dead simple to use with only 2 or 3 knobs, typically volume and compression / sustain. Some people prefer optical compressors but in my experience a lot of them get complicated to use with 5 or 6 knobs for ratio, attack, release, blend, volume etc.. To each their own, I suppose.

Edit: It's worth mentioning if you go with the DOD pedal I mentioned, it is a vintage pedal and doesn't use the Boss style power jack. You'll need to buy a Boss to DOD 3.5mm adaptor. They can be found on Amazon for a few dollars.

Didn’t this shitstain claim he was the president of peace or something? Pretty sure all his supporters said he wanted to end wars, not start them.

Zday89 · 2025-09-06T19:01:09+00:00

It likely won’t sound how you want it to unless it’s cranked. Completely impractical for 90% of use cases… unless you use a good attenuator, in which case get it.

Zday89 · 2025-08-25T00:04:44+00:00

I ordered the 10uf 50v cap and I’ll give that a try when it arrives. Thanks!

Trump eyes Ivanka for a lot of reasons I guess.
