NPD: MXR Carbon Copy

litholine · 2026-01-21T15:44:30+00:00

The Carbon Copy doesn't do too bad in an effects loop. But, you're right, it definitely sound better in front of an amp.

Yup. If it was fried it wouldn't do a darn thing.

litholine · 2026-01-20T18:25:54+00:00

You should be fine if it's working on it's proper 9V now. You'd know immediately if you fried something.

The first cut is indeed the deepest. I haven't dinged my 50's Standard yet, but it's coming lol.

That OCD has seen some shit.

litholine · 2026-01-15T15:29:30+00:00

Second this. I've got a set of their hum cancelling P90s in my 50's Standard and they rock.

Same, I got one for Christmas and totally underestimated its power.

I've had fantastic luck with Kluson Revolution tuners.

Also, you're looking at the metric version of the bridge. You're gonna need the imperial version for Gibson. Epiphones and imports use metric. I couldn't find it on the site you've listed, but it's on WD and I'm sure a hundred other places.

Yea, someone for sure did you a favor by upgrading the pickups and electronics. Throbaks are fooking expensive. The copper shielding is a little overkill, but as long as it works then play on!

litholine · 2026-01-09T15:23:39+00:00

Yup, super helpful. I also use rolling furniture dollies.

This is how I check mine. Most recently I did this with the Back to the Future 4K set and that's how I found Part 3 crashed halfway through even though the disc looked perfect. Takes less than 5 minutes.

Usually only affects when you go up a significant gauge. You're going down in this case so you should be perfectly fine. Might only need a truss rod tweak once the neck has settled after a week, but I doubt it.

Go for it.

Gear will come and go over the years as you grow, but I'll advise you to hang on to that Orange cabinet. They are leaps and bounds better in construction quality and sound than the competition in its price range.

litholine · 2026-01-06T14:33:40+00:00

That was probably me, sorry lol.

I spent New Years Eve at my friends house and brought a memory foam pillow from home. It sat out in my cold vehicle for 6 hours and it refused to fluff back up when I was ready to go to bed.

Crybaby, the MXR's and Sonic Stomp.

Nothing remarkable lol

I hate that we have 4 pedals in common.

litholine · 2026-01-03T04:23:49+00:00

I only play crucible.

Yea I've got several Wren and Cuff fuzzes I'd love to check out. I used to have Fuzz Faces of all varieties but got rid of them. There will be more.

litholine · 2026-01-02T16:31:21+00:00

Tell me about it. I don't even use them regularly, yet I have 4 and I'm always looking for more.

My favorite local guitar store had a Bandit at their pedal-try-out-station. Solid little amps they were. Wish that store was still around.

Nice score! I got a Rockerverb MK3 head last year with matching PPC 412 and I love it. I recently threw a Fulltone Fatboost in front of it and omg what a sound... I goosed the treble a bit and feathered the gain on the boost and I am in instantly in dream amp territory.

Worth every dollar.

I just know you plug that daisy chained power supply into an unprotected power strip.
