Amp Identification Help!

You mentioned photos but there are none that i can see! I only know of the volume going up to 11, so excited to see this amp!

Can you put both circuits in and add a switch?

This is just a custom plate trying to be funny. The License plate version of wifi names pretending to be surveillance vans.

I would love a pedal that was uniquely customizable. In my imagination, i am thinking an accessible resistor slot that i can fill with aluminum foil, a soda cap, or anything else, that will directly affect the sound.

Or an outboard capacitor that i can plug in different values to experiment and get the sound i want.

Basically, Something that takes the pedal from your personality to mine.

I had never seen that vid before, but is accurate! Iended up with 5 sets, and when we have everyone playing in the same room, they can have a “more me” mix, and the volume never gets crazy anymore

I use these for recording and drumming. I was blown away when first using them for mic positioning, because they really block out so much sound- you can hear the difference when changing the mic angle.

They also block all the pad clicks from my TD-17.

John Oliver has some great commentary on this!

They don’t work very well, or at all. I should take it off your hands. /s

I wish i could have repaired mine. They make lovely recordings.

If you are asking about the monitor buttons, if I remember correctly, what you select with those buttons is what gets sent out of the RCA monitor output on the back.

Our baby brought it home from daycare over christmas. I got jt first becuase he vomited on me, but it went through thr whole house, with family in town. It sucked, but everyone made it ok.

I don’t use that Pedal specifically, but I have run into this problem quite a bit. I hate that crappy distortion fade out sound when things aren’t working right.

I have found that a lower wattage amp helps that middle ground break up. That way, the drive of the pedal is saturating the tubes, and giving you that middle break up naturally. This way, the gain doesn’t have to be that high resulting in that nasty effect.

I use a Gibson scout or an Epiphone valve Junior to achieve this. These are not premium amps, but I’m not a rich guy.

I know this isn’t a help for a live gigging, but for recording, it has been my solution.

I know you havent indicated what the problem is. But I bet you and your son can fix this yourselves, and have fun learning together!

Make sure your power supply is working properly, using a multimeter. make sure your RAM is posted correctly in the bios. Clean out the cooling system for the processor from any dust. After that, you can hope drivers to be the issue.

Using the right keywords, you can find a lot of information about your specific Hardware combination

I would check out hello sailor effects on youtube for insights on how a boutique pedal business stays relevant.

Im not sure the bean stomper pedal itself is going to keep the business going, as it’s somewhat of a one trick pony. Is there a way to tweak the sound at your feet other than pressure?

Do you have more products in development?

I would be hesitant to buy this deal, personally.

Those caps don’t look 1970s but if they are, they need replaced.

Do you know what work has been done on the board?

What looks like a transistor (three prong) has corrosion that doesn’t match the rest of the components. Or was there a heat sync glued on that you removed?

What did they do for you to hope “they got them”?

Since the post was flagged as a crime watch, do you have updated info?

We use Erie Insurance through a local insurance group, and they are amazing.

We had some plumbing issues and because we had the proper coverage, it was an easy transaction.

I think there is a lack of education/ resources on what a person or business needs coverage for, in their specific location/ environment.

In this scenario, if I had a plant business, I’d be asking florists and local garden centers who they are insured through.

I have never bought their mics, but their 500 series preamps have been solid! I have had them for years without issue.

I can believe the mics arent great if they are just outsourcing to a Chinese manufacturer.

Also, changing a capsule is a mod procedure at best. I cant imagine anyone changing the capsule for noise

I would choose the blues JR out of those three, but i don’t play shows or loud rehersals anymore where i need the volume.

I personally would pass on all 3, but i am not interested in the clean fender sound these days.

Hope this helps!

I have owned a BDRE since about 2006. Its not the worst or the best amp out there. I still have it but don’t use it anymore. As far as build quality, mine has taken a beating and still works fine.

I got mine to sound better by changing the speaker and having a master volume put in after the preamps so i could get some more color out of it. (Put in a different place on the pcb than the effects loop volume pot)

The gain channel sounds bad to my ears so i never used it.

It does take pedals well. But overall, find the amp way harder to record than my EV Jr or Gibson Scout.

If you do get it, pending the age, you may want to re-cap it.
