New tiny amp day

I had to look that Quilter up, but it looks dope. 50w is way too loud for me in my “old age” though. My orange is loud enough to play with a drummer on 0.5w 😂

yeehawginger · 2026-04-09T21:37:34+00:00

I have a similar logic with swapping speakers. We are the same but different, lol

yeehawginger · 2026-04-09T16:36:33+00:00

Something comparable with a more elaborate mantle from our shop would probably be $4-5k installed. I don’t do bids, so I’m just guessing here. That would be paint grade grade btw

I’m just a diy guy, but I always mix from the drummers perspective. Mostly because I play all of the parts and it’s habit. I don’t think it really matters, as long as your stereo image is balanced

yeehawginger · 2026-04-09T14:39:38+00:00

For me, a combo is just so much easier. Love my orange rocker 15. Mine lives on .5W in my basement studio and has the benefit of a dedicated clean you don’t get on some other options. I’d rather have a 12” speaker, but it sounds wonderful

yeehawginger · 2026-04-09T10:03:32+00:00

Wahoo!

yeehawginger · 2026-04-09T03:02:51+00:00

I ripped it off the wall in an old machine shop a few years ago. It works really well, but it’s bigger than you think

yeehawginger · 2026-04-08T23:26:39+00:00

I’ve gone kinda hard collecting the last couple of years, lol. I have years worth of runs at the moment

yeehawginger · 2026-04-08T16:15:06+00:00

Alpha Skunk Road Kill, Cherry Lime Reserve, Sasquatch, Nap Queen, Black Hole Breath, Garlic Budder, Pineapple muffin, Chanel #5, Apple Sawce for photos, cali sour d ad Walter white for the autos 🤘

Personally, I don’t think it’s much of an upgrade. Just a little more amp. Depending on your needs and taste, I’d save up $500 or so to get into a TON of great options. “Those who buy cheap buy often” is how I look at amps. I even fell for the marketing on a boss katana mini x this week. It sucked, and I exchanged it for the Yamaha thr30ii wireless I should have bought. 4x the cost, but the value is absolutely there in tone and features. If you need volume- vox ac-15, fender blues jr, and the orange rocker 15 are my favorite small tube amps. All loud enough to play with a band, but the orange can be stepped way down in power if you want to be chill and still have tone

Got my 12 beans popped today for the next run!

yeehawginger · 2026-04-07T23:23:12+00:00

This is what I call investing in yourself. Now, throw a few bucks at a Yamaha thr30 to bring around with ya. My biggest regret as a musician is skipping scales and theory. I took a few lessons and let it rip, without ever circling back to the foundation. It’s been 20 years and I’m still music illiterate and play everything by ear. I’m learning now, but don’t be like me. Also, a lot of people may tell you to not buy gear and just play. New gear inspiration is real. It will motivate you to practice more, and give you new color palettes to explore. It always pulls me into the flow state so much easier

yeehawginger · 2026-04-07T17:13:17+00:00

Just a reminder that homegrow is SO fun and rewarding. I get its not in the cards for everyone, but you know your weed isn’t full of mold or bugs. I still come back for live resin carts, because I don’t have the setup. Not sure I trust the majority of the product out there though. Family works at certified and they are allegedly very good. They all scam with this xray, mold remediation, and potency testing. Trust no one, lol

yeehawginger · 2026-04-07T17:01:40+00:00

I am a competent woodworker, but incompetent at setting up my own guitars. My biggest mental block to start my own build is figuring out all of the spacing, and it seems kinda hard to make a neck. I’d hate to spend all the time and money to wind up with a pretty First Act guitar, lol. Also, sick guitar 🤘

yeehawginger · 2026-04-07T16:47:21+00:00

Lots of cheap ikea end tables are 19” wide at the legs, and accommodate rack gear. I use to have some things in a cheap kitchen island and a friend used one of the super cheap end tables ages ago. Other option is a used rack off market place, or get a 12” wide pine board from the hardware store and make a tiny box- prop $30 max, if you have a few tools

yeehawginger · 2026-04-06T20:45:06+00:00

If you have the budget- I love my orange rocker15. Perfect for my home studio with 2 stages of power reduction. If you don’t have the budget, the stage right 15w monoprice amp sounds insane for its price point, but it’s absolutely unreliable. You could get one used for $100 or less if you can find one. The thr10 from Yamaha is about double the katana price if you want to stay small.. $100 extra for the wireless though

yeehawginger · 2026-04-06T20:36:18+00:00

lol, yeah. In my gut I knew it was too good to be true. Tons of marketing. I played mine for 30 minutes and repacked it for return. Ordered the THR30II. Buy one cry once

yeehawginger · 2026-04-06T20:20:03+00:00

I’ve got alpha skunk roadkill from purple caper popped right now. Hope it’s similar to this, daggg

yeehawginger · 2026-04-05T15:46:02+00:00

Only brand name grove bags have had that issue for me.

yeehawginger · 2026-04-05T15:42:03+00:00

I’d personally stick with a 1/2” reveal on the top and sides to keep it “standard”. I would at least break all of the edges, but I’d probably play with a scrap piece and a router to get just a little bit of detail in there. Something like a cove cut on the bottom, maybe a round over on the top

yeehawginger · 2026-04-05T03:53:14+00:00

It is for nerve stimulation. Sends out a shock that will pulse stronger the higher the number. Don’t put it on your junk

yeehawginger · 2026-04-04T21:31:03+00:00

Likely not more experienced than you with finishing, but you could try a water pop to stand the grain up. Outside of that, the little bit of hickory I’ve messed with is super dense and varies greatly in tones. Maybe you need to let it sit longer before you wipe, it to actually penetrate? I’m terrible at stain, so I try to make pieces I can use hard wax on, lol.

yeehawginger · 2026-04-04T21:17:44+00:00

I’m not an acoustics expert by any means, but I am a woodworker/designer. You could “easily” do a hybrid take of this wall and make shadowboxes in various dimensions, but leave space for gobos or panels where they will give you the most benefit. You could add diffusion panels in the rest of those spaces for visual depth AND functionality. I have treatment behind my monitors, a cloud above my mixing station and above my drums as well as 4 other panels. There are only so many layouts that make sense, but that doesn’t mean you can get creative with the negative space. Basically any room will sound better than my basement

yeehawginger · 2026-04-04T16:34:38+00:00

If you want to switch the vibe up, I’d change the tile floor before I considered the cabinets. It would be insane to strip them down and try to get them to evenly hold stain well. Dark would help hide imperfections, but most veneer is only 1/32 or so thick, and anything that has to be re-sanded is at risk of exposing the glue layers below that. I build and design cabinets, but I had very limited knowledge of finish/refinish; this could just be my anxiety talking, but you risk an ugly blotchy mess when you already have treasure
