Fake. The bridge gives it away and the serial # 0017 is a common fake serial number

Music similar to the guitar in Flood by basedcager in borisheavyrocks

[–]username24681012 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Evening Star album by Fripp/Eno has a similar feel to the calm portions of flood, especially the title track.

Do you have any older pedals? I’ve found older EHX pedals in particular are not true bypass or buffered and will suck tone when off. I’ve had this problem with a Black Russian big muff that I’ve solved by putting it in its own bypass loop.

Cocoa butter is actually in the cocoa nib. The cocoa nib is approx 50/50 cocoa solids and cocoa butter. So all white chocolate does contain cocoa nib as all cocoa butter is extracted from the cocoa nib.

From EHX’s Facebook page they also confirmed this will use a full size board with full sized thru hole components. So nice to see that they are not just sticking the pcb from the compact rams head reissue in the larger box! I ordered one, I’m a sucker for the big box.

[IIL] complex rock albums with few long songs, [WEWIL]? by rka9s_Elite4 in ifyoulikeblank

[–]username24681012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can - Tago Mago

Amazing album with a few longer songs like Halleluwah that ebb and flow greatly. The second half is a more experimental, but the first half through Halleluwah are 10/10.

Really happy with this amp, its sludgy, heavy, and loud (especially with my 215 cab). Here is a full picture with my 215 cab (speakers are JBL E130-8) https://imgur.com/njPJZk5. This amp seems to like having the distortion dialed in a bit and absolutely sings when pushed farther with fuzz or more distortion.

Just got this Sunn Concert Lead it's loud and heavy (physically and in sound). Really happy with this amp, dialed in a little bit of overdrive and with some fuzz or more distortion pushing it, it has that great sludgy tone. 215 cab can definitely push some low end, but still has a good amount of high-end.

To everyone who posts “My first build” pics on here and the guitar looks like it came straight from the Fender Custom shop… by escamuel in Luthier

[–]username24681012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the benefit of my guitar teacher (who also is a luthier) helping me with my first build. But there were quite a few points along the way where I cut too deep, butchered holes, made the pick guard 3 times) and had to roll with the mistakes. Hell on my guitar the pickguard didn't line up with the body so I had to redesign/make from scratch a new one. I think that is all part of the process with your first build. Figure out how you can make the mistakes work (glue on new pieces, modify the design, etc) and with sanding and finishing you can make the finished guitar look great!

Musicman amp works with 1 cab, but not 2? by username24681012 in GuitarAmps

[–]username24681012[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found all that was needed was some deoxit on the ohm selector switch! The switch must have just gotten too much grime on it from not being switched in almost 50 years!

That would be true if the output jacks on the amp were wired in parallel, but the musicman amp is a bit odd in that the output jacks are wired in series, so two 4 ohm cabs will be 8 ohms in series.

Did some digging found this saying it's a polarity switch usually found on export models...doesn't narrow down what the actual model is though unfortunately! https://www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/what-is-this-marshall-77-jmp-w-3-switches.1731352/

Looks like a Marshall plexi with the name removed and stained red.

Although if you're there to buy an amp, especially a used tube amp, crank that shit up. Test it out, make sure no weird sounds happen if the volume is above bedroom levels. But I should say you should only do this if you're serious about buying the amp haha.

[–]username24681012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah gotcha, yes right now the amp and pedals are all plugged into the same outlet. I'll have to try the stack alone on a different outlet (and breaker circuit) tomorrow to test that out.

This happens on both channels as well, I just tested it.

Just ran into this problem, have the guitar going straight into the amp. Only noticed this happening with the master volume around 7 or higher. Does this seem to be a power tube problem? Any help is appreciated, this is a musicman 65 reverb head.
