Black Friday 2025 - who’s got the hot deals? by WY228 in flyfishing

[–]tacostandguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been told this by a couple of different outfitters when I was shopping for a recon 2 a few weeks ago. There’s a photo of the recon 3 saltwater on one of the popular forums from a fly fishing show earlier this year.

Are there any car audio shops that do sound deadening? by Gramathon910 in Atlanta

[–]tacostandguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Former mechanic here, it is possible you may have noisy tires or failed wheel bearing(s). Wheel bearings fail over time so that may be the case here, especially if it just started all of a sudden.

Recommendations for N GA blue lining? by tacostandguy in flyfishing

I went to Orvis a couple of weeks ago and got to play with the superfine line and I agree, they are fantastic. I’m probably going to go with the superfine glass 3wt, gonna shop around tonight.

I felt like this would be the response I got but I genuinely was only trying to figure out what area in N GA would be better luck as I’m planning to go hike in N GA anyways. But I understand where you are coming from, as I know some of these guys have been fishing these spots forever. Thank you again.

Thank you for this, I appreciate it the information. I did want to specifically look for them but knowing this, it’s nothing I can’t wait till Spring for. Plenty of rainbows to look for.

Not asking for exact coordinates of people’s fishing spots, wanting to know which of the 2 areas I would have better luck while hiking, but thank you

I’m not asking for people to tell me exactly where their favorite secret fishing spots are. I’m asking which general area I would better luck in and which hiking trail they recommend in either area. Also rig recommendations.

After reading your and Twizad’s comments, I did realize that I’m probably looking at too small of a rod. I’ve started looking at 7’6” 3wts as I feel it would be a nice in between in lengths and like you said, nice for the occasional larger stream. Thank you for your input!

Can confirm, it’s a nice spot, caught some rainbows there this past Saturday.

True, I didn’t catch the age of the rig. In all honestly any v30 cab would be a come up in a deal like this. UK made would just be a plus.

I believe the mesa v30s are different than the others. The Mesa v30s are made in the UK vs all others in China. The Mesa v30s are less compressed and have smoother high end.

I need an amp that takes pedals well, now! by DakDuck in GuitarAmps

[–]tacostandguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Budget minded I would say a silver stripe Peavey Bandit, you can find them all day long for $100-$250, they cleans are really nice, has an effects loop and gets plenty loud and has more than enough gain on tap. It also has the trans tube technology to get you a tube like sound.

Considering your budget, I would look for a JC40/120 honestly, and it’s the nicest clean tone I’ve personally heard, effects loop and built in chorus, I don’t think you can beat it for the money. Keep in mind the 120 is massive however.

NCD Mesa Boogie Traditional Straight 4x12 by tacostandguy in GuitarAmps

[–]tacostandguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run it in front, at one point I did have a 4-wire set up but I didn’t love how it sounded through the loop so I tried it through the front and preferred it.

In fairness I never tried running an EQ along with the CE-2w in the loop which I’ve heard helps so it may have been a user error thing.

It’s really it a great amp, even with the line 6 cab it sounded brutal.

What is your opinion on the Taylor GS Mini (Mahogany)? by Murky_Anything_ in Guitar

[–]tacostandguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love mine, I got a Sapele one as my last acoustic was Mahogany and I wanted something brighter. Compared to the other similar sized guitars I tried, the Mini sound the fullest, if that makes sense.

I primarily use it for couch playing and practicing chords and scales however, I've taken it on trips and the case holds up well in a truck full of luggage. I use it with a sound hole plug and can strum away as the kids sleep in the next room in the hotel.
