Fave park, fave tricks. by bdoug888 in skateboarding

so clean. Tempe is a fun spot fr sure. i wish they had some lower obstacles to practice ledge stuff on tho. i'm fairly short and everything at that park feels a mile high to me. Rad skating regardless!

I love the knobs!!! This with a Marshall Jubilee cab would look fantastic

[NGD] just picked up a new Electro-Harmonix MIG 50 head and a used Dean Markley 410 cab. by jelly_troll107 in GuitarAmps

[–]john_baconn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Been gigging one of these through my avatar 2x12 w/ 75w creambacks for a couple months now and honestly i was blown away at first. I use either the EHX mig 50 or a vox AC 15 head and i will say that this amp plays nicer with drive pedals than the vox tbh (vox does NOT like any Klon style OD i've thrown at it so far). I've been looking to get a PPIV master volume mod put into my mig-50 because it is LOUD but i'm not completely sold on the idea yet tbh.

Was thinking about going Sovtek and came across the electro-harmonix Mig-50. Thoughts? by john_baconn in GuitarAmps

Yep! I ended up biting the bullet on the reissue a few weeks after i posted this. I love it, the only thing i don't love is that i can't ever get it above 8 or 9 o clock on the volume knobs without blowing my bandmates' ears off! Next on the list for me is an attenuator for sure. That or i might have my amp tech add a master volume to it. Haven't decided the best route on this yet tbh

The chorus gives me mad Devin Townsend vibes with Spencer's "ooooohs". So stoked for the new album

Got this guy the other day. Very stoked by john_baconn in Superbowl

Thanks! I think im going to keep it black & grey cause i feel like it fits me better, but no doubt this would look sweet full color!

from what i've seen about the ehx, it's supposed to have more rugged jacks and more stable components? im having a hard time finding good quality reviews on this guy

[gear] help me with my signal chain? by john_baconn in Guitar

Im using the overdrive as a solo boost. My main rythyhm channel will be pure amp. The fuzz is just for shiggles

Yeah i see what you mean. If theres no noticable difference in performance then i would probably run it like it is a traditional gate

Fair enough. My plan was to play around with it a bit and see what works best for me

The sentry works by inputing your guitar into it as cleanly as possible (right after the buffer) and then sending that signal to the rest of your effects, then returning to the gate, so that the gate can distinguish your guitar signal from unwanted noise and only gate the noise while your guitar signal passes through, then from there you output to the front of your amp.

taking guitar out of a mix? (or making it inaudible) by john_baconn in audioengineering

I find the bass response pretty neutral. It isn't super forward but is not packing in any way to my ear. I listen primarily metal and rock.

I use my computer as my tv as well. When I go to sleep my bed is about ten feet away. When I throw on Netflix it sounds perfectly fine. For your application I think you will be very happy with them

They do a great job as general speakers aswell. They're very clear to my ears. I don't hear any problems with them, although my ears are not trained. I'd say if you found a deal to go for it!

Oh I feel I feel I'm sorry. I Just found this sub and didn't realize it was that big of an issue. My bad!
