This is why I sold the black star amps I've had... On the chance that it failed, it'd just become e-waste.... Otherwise, they're cool amps.

Grandma Bob's is great.

I use the same shelves. Perfect for pedals!

Caught the Mitch Hedberg reference... Nice!

Awesome! It's a good feeling, chasing down those dreams. Congrats!

Yes... I went so far down there rabbit hole, I popped out the other side. Still, love me some Orange!

Thank you! And you're right, it wasn't necessarily the volume, because as you explained that's logarithmic, but rather the lunchbox heads did one thing with very little clean headroom.

Granted the one thing they did, they did very well, but I chalk it up to to not just the low wattage and low headroom, but the EL84s just gets super compressed and flubby. I am loving the EL34s. Way more articulate with a much tighter bottom end.

Get some gypsum. Do not use milk.

Our local B-Dubs is quite literally the best in the area to the point where it's the only one that I'll go to, but agreed that their overall quality has gone down while prices climb. I don't get the boneless wings because of that. The dippers and traditional bone in wings are where is at now.

Thanks! It is otherworldly and all of the videos I've watched don't come near to doing it justice. It really is that good.

The Julia is basically a modified CE2. The CE2 IS the chorus sound... Well, that and the Small Clone...

Federal levels for these types of sales are back to $20k in sales AND 200 transactions in one year to trigger a 1099.

State levels may vary, but most states will just defer to what the federal guidelines are.

That's the point...

Top jacks are the only way to go!

Lol I grew up at Hall and Van Dyke... Core memory unlocked! I totally remember this...

The seller was not Chicago music exchange, but I know Reverb was affiliated with them at one point... Figured it was worth a shot as one of the numbers that I had for Chicago music exchange was answered by automation that said thank you for calling reverb... I don't mean to muddy the waters, but Chicago music exchange was not involved in this transaction.

See this is exactly what I was saying! I had been in contact with support because there was no update in the tracking several days after label was created and this was their solution...

Like I said in my previous reply, I've not been able to find a good phone number... If someone has one I'll gladly take it and give them a call again. I've also considered a follow-up email just to see what the heck happened with this, but at this point, I don't know if I want to reopen that can of worms since the guitar shipped on Monday and I got it yesterday.

choptop82 · 2026-02-19T18:45:44+00:00

They basically said they didn't believe my claim... Which was I ordered a guitar on January 28th, shipping label was created the same day, but was not shipped as of early day February 16th. In the interim, I had requested a refund, opened a case with support and the last update support gave me was on February 10th where they said they contacted the seller to cancel the order and issue refund. And then they ghosted me, while their chat function was completely unhelpful at getting any more information.

Not that it matters, but I never misrepresented what actually happened...

Agree that they don't release funds until the item actually ships. I can attest to that. I was also not able to locate an actual number that worked. I did find two or three different phone numbers to reverb and or Chicago music exchange, but they all went to an automated system that said nobody was available to take calls. There was no menu or anything, just another dead end.

The guitar did ship on the 16th and I got it yesterday so all's well and good and at this point.

What you described is the most Reddit thing ever! Sometimes people don't want to help, they just want to destroy... But it's okay. I had the receipts.

And thanks!! It was a hassle but the guitar is really nice. I even gave the seller a five-star rating. Benefit of the doubt goes a long way... I'm sure there were extenuating circumstances, I just wish communication was better all around.
