    Picked up a Stiletto Ace today

    By the way try the amp with the 90 watt mesa speakers. My bro has that and like the lonestar combo that is what makes the lonestar so warm fat and special. Yeah they say they made the amp with the 30s but its amazing with p90s to my ears

    Picked up a Stiletto Ace today

    I hate bright myself but really if you turn the presense off and tame the treble the amp isnt bright. Its can sound not bright if you eq correct

    Inconsistant Tone

    the answer a voltage regulator. Current even through the sameoutlet will change from different times of the day thus making the bias float a lot. I had a egnater in the studio a couple years ago and then went to radio shack bought the meter and checked the bias ( it had a easy set up on th...

    5U4 Tube Question for RK2 Users

    what did they do ? Also I read if you go to a higher voltage rectifer tube it can wear out your caps fast oppose to the otehr way. So going from a 5U4 to a 5AR4/GZ34 would be higher. What or how did you find it was okay ?

    Lonestar Classic vs. Special

    both great. special ? thinner and less bass. little headroom. Great tones but I prefer the classic 2-12 combo over the special. Had both and love the classic. If you like a 6l6 tone its the ****. so dont really compare them as they are different by great lengths. I play the classic at 50 watts...

    Need some advice on the Lone star combo amp

    dark ? Thats from ears that dont know how to use an eq. It can be bright as hell. I hate bright myself. Anyway I have a shiva bogner and the dirty with the extra gain on is very touch sensitive and less dark than with it off. I however think the cab have as much bass as a close back and sounds...

    Need some advice on the Lone star combo amp

    Woody : I say try the combo and then a head and cab. Personally I like the combo. It sounds different. I like the open back cab tone. Weight yeah but I dont care about that its not that bad. My old fender twin weighed as much benlink: The EMGS you have will make that amp scream compared...

    Road king vrs Lone star classic

    unless you want the recto sound I think the lonestar classic is far superior for the low to mid gain tones and with pedals I get tones that kill. I have a hot british pedal and it smokes with the lonestar. I also have compared the lonestar clean to the rk2 and its close but theres a noticable...

    Anyone own or tried the Stiletto Ace yet???

    funny how most refer to the british el 34's sound as a billy gibbons sound when in fact they were 6l6 tubes that recorded most of those classic zz top tones prior to eliminator and so on. I can get a better billy tone from my lonestar classic then a stilleto but I am very hot on the ace. In fact...

    Stiletto Ace Ponderings...

    It is like a spring verb so any effects rack will not be like a good spring verb. Quiet ? No noisy but never bothered me

    Best guitar with LSC?

    Well for me its a strat with EMG 85 that makes the dirty channel scream like a bogner shiva and SLV single coils that make it sound like you have a fat boost in front. Overall I have vintage strats, an eric johnson and this guitar smokes them all as it makes the lonestar just flat out sound like...

    Anyone own or tried the Stiletto Ace yet???

    The 90 watt speakers would be a better match for the ace for my tastes. I hate v-30s which it comes with. I also think the amp is a bit bright but it can dialed out so thats not a fair thing to say its bright when you can eq it to just about anything
