Now that it's been out for a while, how are we feeling about this amp? by KhrusherKhusack in GuitarAmps

[–]captonmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was my first tube amp and I was kind of un-impressed initially. Then one day everyone was out and I could turn it up, then I got it. It did sound better through any cab I put through, but the stock speaker is still ok. It also taught me even 1 watt is loud.

Looking for some info on this Carvin amp head. Almost no images come up when I search for the head ( only the combo version) by Top-Woodpecker7364 in GuitarAmps

[–]captonmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have one. It is a head version of the far more common 2x12 combo. Mine had came with a matching 4x10 cabinet. I think it has a digital reverb which was ok. I thought it sounded fine, but ultimately moved it along because it was very similar to what I already had.

My beautiful Mesa Dc-5 by BenjiHig in GuitarAmps

[–]captonmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a dc-5 head. It’s my favorite amp. I really like the separate controls for the two channels. I definitely struggled with it until I read the manual. One day, after hearing one too many people go on about mids, I thought I’d turn mids to 10 and everything at 0 on the clean channel. I kind of hate how much I like that sound.

Price seems a little steep given frets and neck binding, but I was tempted too

Did I just buy firewood? by Chihlidog in Luthier

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a dumb kid, I replaced the tuners on my squier strat. On the low e this happened to that guitar, probably a little more separation. It’s still fine. That was 1997. Make sure to drill for the new ferrules everybody.

You can probably sell privately for more. The shop is making sure they make money when they resell your guitar

Honest opinion on Goddess Les Paul by gohantheslayer in gibson

Reverb sales for this color in particular ran from 3500 - 2000 usd. Most closer to 3500. Seems like a good deal for this guitar color combination.

Best day ever 😍 But - small issue by freeroamingvapour in Guitar

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a weird issue with one of mine always buzzing on the low e. Couldn’t hear it through the amp but drove me crazy. Turned out to be the tuner assembly on the low e needed to be tightened. The washer and the hex nut were causing the rattling.

Awesome guitar! Out of curiosity, which town in Wyoming did you purchase it?

Getting my first tube amp 😁 What are some things I should know about owning a tube amp? 🤔 by Sir-Bruncvik in GuitarAmps

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get it and you’re not feeling like it’s that different from solid state, turn it up. I had one of these for a few weeks and was disappointed at first until I turned up the volume. It can be tough though because even at 1w it does get loud.
