    Anyone A/B'd Recto and Orange 4 x 12's

    As the title says has anyone compared these 2 cabs. As the speakers are the same I am curious if there is a noticeable tonal difference thru the cab construction. I have a rockerverb on order which I intended to use alongside my roadster with a recto cab (when I eventually found one). I was...

    FS RJM RG-16 UK only

    Brand new excellent RG-16 for sale in the UK along with roadster interface cable, ground control pro also available. Having moved some gear on I've decided not to go to a full midi based multi amp rig with switching system and am settling for seperate amps with an A/B/C selector. Fleabay...

    Marshall Vintage Modern advice

    OK if you want to be specific, not every amp, but you get the drift right? the bit I do know is that the VM doesn't fully clean up either, the range voicings need tweaking yet, high dynamic gets good crunch but doesn't fully clean up on the 50w (the 100w will be better with more headroom I...

    Marshall Vintage Modern advice

    I know there's workarounds but in the end I got very similar tones from the JVM without the hassle. I don't buy in to the 'its a true guitar players amp cos you use the vol knob' either, every amp works that way. Its a decent amp and does the one thing it does very well and to be fair that's...

    Marshall Vintage Modern advice

    I just sold the 50watt head although I'm keeping the 425 cab as its superb for the greenback tone. I liked the amp a lot at first but got bored pretty quick, it has some basic design flaws which become a pain e.g. boosting for solos etc. Decent tone once dialled in but definately a one trick. I...

    The impact of string gauge on tone

    I've just switched to 9's after years on 10's, DR's are my fave. I like big bends and loads of vibrato and now I don't ache as much or feel as I'm fighting the guitar after long sessions. TBH tone is about the same I reckon and I prefer the slinkier feel so much I'm even considering topwrapping...

    220V and Mesa amps in europe/Australia

    any hassle getting it in the plane? Im stopping off in L.A en route to Oz from the UK and wouldn't mind grabbing a new axe and maybe some other bits and bobs, seriously considered a head also. lol.

    reverb pedal or rack unit... midi capable

    I went with a G sharp http://www.tcelectronic.com/G-Sharp.asp Basically a stripped down version of a g major but with idiot proof knobs instead of all that parameter stuff. Great unit and cheap, downside is that you can't have chorus and delay on at once but I just use it sparingly anyway for...

    stiletto stage I or II opinions

    Thanks a lot for that, very informative, I did a search but couldn't find much on this. Trouble is there's no stage I's around to try, got my eye on one but would have to buy it blind and there soooo expensive over here. Keep ya posted :)

    so does this sound like i need some new tubes?

    attenuators are well known for burning up power tubes fast and/or tipping any dodgy ones over the edge.

    Why an OD Pedal??

    Actually Im thinking of bailing out on the marshall and switching to the stiletto, Ive heard some great tones from them lately, makes the marshall sound a bit thin. more GAS :roll:

    Roadster and clean channel

    +1, Im even thinking of using channel 2 as a completely clean channel and setting channel 1 as a mild OD on tweed with a slight pedal boost. My current ch1 is set for a thick warm tone, something like 100w (for the headroom) on FAT, virtually no presence, very little gain but up on the channel...

    Why an OD Pedal??

    I didn't say that either, I just said the brit setting on the roadster isn't my cup 'o' tea (although I've put no time into tweaking it or exploring it at all), I haven't tried many other mesa's so I haven't a clue how they sound. It made my ch2 slightly redundant which is my reason for using...

    Why an OD Pedal??

    I've got to say I much prefer the mesa tone to the marshall as well but I do like the marshall sound for certain stuff, if my garage was on fire though I'd run straight past it and grab the mesa. :lol: I'd like to try a stiletto.

    VOX AD30VT - Best modeling amp I've heard!!

    I had the 120vth head for a while, sounds astonishingly huge with a GE7 (or any EQ) in the loop, liked it a lot but moved it on for a spider valve in the end. The blue ones are much better quality.

    Amp Switcher with Effects Loop?

    what cables is everyone using??

    Those are UK prices though, not sure about US. My only moan about Klotz is its pretty stiff cos of the thick core and all the sheathing, if you jump around a lot it soons turns to crap round your feet :D Sommer doesn't so might switch. I also like the new neutrik silent connectors which get...

    Why an OD Pedal??

    I didn't say that, I simply tried it for about 30 seconds and didn't like it, I'm sure I could dial it in a lot better but obviously there's no point when its sat next to a marshall.
