Hi Folks: I've never used the effects loop before that has a mix control. What is everybody doing as far as level. I've tried most of the knob range and I seem to like 50-75% with my current levels on my pedals. Do I cut all the levels ON THE PEDALS UP and use the mix control on the FX loop or...

I know this is a common question. What are the 112 combo players swapping out Black Shadows with these days? Please sound off with your experiences. I just bought a .50 caliber+ and won't be using half of its power..my back ain't what it used to be and I know the BS weighs at 15 lbs. I was...

I..AM..LOVING..IT! 70watts 8ohm. My BA is 38 max. A little heavier than the Neo Celestion Century Vintage I had, but warm, bass, and subdued icepick all over the neo. I'm not experienced with Greenbacks and Creambacks, but this is supposed to be a cross between the two. I've been playing it all...

Anaaand Thank YOU sir! Keep 'em coming y'all...We need a NEO thread! :D

Let me know what the low end is like when you get em' broken in Andy.. Thanks!

Yo Bro! Been awhile! Hope you are well. If its any help to you, I put a Celestion Century Vintage in my BA. I love the top and mid detail, but am missing low end. I have considered the Tonker Lite myself. I'm curious if you decide to go that route..let me know. Oh and BTW, the CV shaved about 12...

I should also say that the Neo speaker shaved about 10-12lbs off of this "boogie-Heavy" beast...WORTH IT!

That's good info mr mark- I ordered an Eminence Legend thinking it would be lighter than the C90..but it was only a pound or 2. I toyed with the idea of the tonkerlite and the Lil texas as well. I guess I figured the amp is only 38watts and the C-Vintage is 65w (plus 101db like your eminence)...

Wow! That's some heavy stuff! Thanks for sharing that with me. On the other hand I play in a regional top40 band..jazz, old R&R, Motown and Funk..kinda hard to see how we could compare apples to apples. I thought your tone was excellent for what you are in to? thanks again! I'll try to post some...

Oh good! Glad to hear that's doing its thing! I had toyed with a THD hotplate when I had my DC 5 years ago..just never got around to it and ended up selling the amp. I LOVE my BA and am experimenting with preamp tube cocktails at the moment..going to get expensive! I love the Weber company! Got...

Hey! Fellow BA owner here. (112 combo) I have read that attenuators are bad for this amp..can't site any threads, but I hear its really hard on the output tranny. You could also change some of the preamp tubes as well to hit your power tubes a little harder. That said, if you are looking for...

They haven't made these for many years and they are quite hard to find.. don't miss out! http://www.ebay.com/itm/231134278194?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

I am interested in this thread..as I have a JJ GZ34 in my Blue Angel.. So Bump!!

Questions: In regards to amp tone: 1. How does one preamp tube differ from the other in regards to tone? Is it plate voltage or gain value or just tube build? 2. If one preamp tube has more bass or more treble, how do I pick the tone I am looking for? 3. OR Does the placement of a preamp tube in...

Bumpity...

I have searched and read looking for this subject for the past few days to no avail. I just re-tubed my BA 112combo. Here is my line-up: V1-Mesa SPAX7 V2-Mesa 12AT7 V3-Jan 12AT7WC V4-JJECC83s V5-Tung-Sol 12AT7 (balanced) PT-Mesa 6V6's/JJ EL84/JJGZ34 Rectifier The amp sounds good and I could...

Thanks for the tip on the Tonker! I **** near pulled the trig on one a few weeks ago, trying to lighten up my BA. I wound up with a Celestion Century Vintage (3lbs!) The only thing I miss about the Black Shadow is the low end..but the Century is awesome so far, kinda like a V30 without the...

I have a Blue Angel (multi-watt). I ordered new tubes over Christmas and thought I would experiment with some V1 tubes. I ordered the Tung_sol 12ax7 gold pin fully loaded (matching and balancing) paid $23.00 for it. I wound up taking my amp in becasue of some nasty hum after I retubed it. My...

Had my first gig with the Celestion Century Vintage Neo last week. I must say, the mids and highs were quite enjoyable. This thing sounded great! The only thing I was missing is the bottom end that the MC90 was good for. I adjusted my monitor to compensate. Hopefully, I will be able to get some...

I have the same issue with my Blue Angel...I believe its a bad pot (mine is volume)..its at my tech's getting looked at. Will report back..
