A wonderful sweet howling pain in my *** until it's working right.

So is the switching between lead and rhythm and vice versa supposed to be fast and quiet? No swelling? Thanks for the input, everyone. I tried calling Boogie a couple days ago but they're out from wednesday to monday on account of the fourth. We'll see what happens.

I have the vertical 2x12, originally had V30s. Tried a couple of combinations with G12H30, Swamp Thang, a single EV. Just added the second EVM 12L and it really turned it into a completely different sounding cab...obviously. Much better now. I'll keep browsing the market for a...

Also, I never noticed this before (I guess I haven't had THAT much playing time with it), but is the volume supposed to swell out then back in when footswitching from Lead to Rhythm? Is there something that can be done to fix this?

UPDATE Ok, I tried bashing it wish my fist while on at a good healthy volume. Nothing. Problem with your suggestion, Tuna, is that it *just* came back from Boogie and they supposedly checked/cleaned all the contacts. The thought of having it sent back to Boogie for another two months makes me...

Tuna, that's a good idea. UPDATE: I'm only getting this noise on the lead channel. I cranked the rhythm channel up to master 6 and couldn't get anything but face meltingly loud sweetness with no breakup. So that rules out the speakers. I'll try bashing it.

It's called "hearing hangover" because there's such a huge contrast between sound with and without earplugs. Get your amp sounding good with the earplugs OUT, then practice with them in. Don't ever tweak your amp with earplugs in, that would be like painting a portrait with really dark...

I got my IIC+ head back from Mesa about a week ago and they didn't seem to fix one of the primary problems that was supposed to be fixed. When I turn the amp up to practice/gig levels I get this ugly scratchy staticky noise the sometimes comes in at the same time, or a second after I hit a low...

Did they throw in the Ramen noodles, or were they extra? Beautiful Paul, btw :D~

It's not an A or a B. I'd need to see the back and the serial # to be sure if it's a C+ and not a C.

Ok, I see now. Well, they do Bubinga and Imbuya for $775 for a brand new unloaded Thiele cab. That's about 250 cheaper than Mesa does it, and of course Mesa doesn't offer Imbuya anymore. I wonder if they use the *exact* specs that Mesa does.

Hey Phyrex...it's Muzikazoo. Can't wait to hear that second EVM in the recto cab. I had the V30s out in a matter of weeks. I j ust find them too harsh for my taste, and the cab didn't project well with them. I think I'll get a thiele no matter how the recto sounds. It seems like the...

I'm really thinking Thiele, because my hardwood/wicker C+ sitting on top of a hardwood/wicker thiele would look sweet and diminutive, but pack some punch. Would be very portable. I think I'll go Thiele, a lot of people are suggesting the halfback, though. But I wouldn't go for a 4x12...that's...

Thundermonkey...you think an EV Thiele can beat out the Recto 2x12?

I'm not a fan of the celestions, myself. I really like the EV because I like the way my amp sounds and I don't want anything to touch that. Plus the EVM 12L (the L stands for "long throw" because it was originally a PA speaker) sounds GREAT at further distances, unlike most celestions I've heard...

http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e7/Muzikazoo/amp.jpg This is what I'm trying to match, it's not a great angle but it's the only pic I have. Which wood do you think I should go with, GTS? Also, is there any way to get the wicker to look a little aged to match mine?

Well, I imagine it'll be close to 100lbs, maybe? But with two people it's not bad. I'm a live sound tech and I'm using to hauling gear all the time. Anyone with comments/experiences/suggestions with these? Oh, and I meant "try a EV Thiele" in my above post.

I've been having one for about six months. I've tried several speaker combinations including 2 v30s, 1v30/1 G12H30, 1 EVM12L/1 Swamp Thang, and in a few days I'll have 2 EVM 12Ls in it. If I don't like the two EV combination, I might sell it and move to something smaller, like an EV. I...

Still looking. I was interested in the Port City Wave 1x12s and 2x12s, said to be some of the best cabs out there right now....but I've got some serious hardwood/wicker thiele gas happening. So... bump :o

McTallica are you on some strange quest to have all the great gear in the world pass through your hands, even if for only a short while?
