    6V6s in Stiletto Ace?

    Can the Ace run 6V6s on Spongy power mode? I was hoping for the EL34/6V6 option working out even though this amp isn't advertised with this option. Any experience?

    "PRS HFS treble pu + Rectifier = ______ tone"

    What is your experience with the PRS HFS bridge pickup with Rectifiers? I'm considering picking up an older CU24 with an HFS in the bridge and I'm wondering what the experience or impression of that pickup is with a Rectifier style amp. I'm currently using a JB in the bridge and the thick mids...

    Syrupy Mark tones from Rectoverb?!?

    Vintage mode seems best suited with T 11:30 M1:30 B 9:00 P 12:00 Gain 1:00 Less fizz and a touch of reverb helps as well... I recall the Tremoverb could mimic some IIC+ fatness in vintage mode... I'm interested in those fusion type tones... Anyone pulling those out of a Recto at all? The...

    DC gain structure... more Mark or Recto?

    I just sold off a DC3, but every time I listen to recordings I made with it, I love the grind in the distortion. My new MkV:25 is great... but, it's different. It doesn't seem to have the grind or edge that the DC had... Is the DC distorted sound more Rectifier in nature? Does the newer...

    DC-3 Running Hot... Normal?

    After about an hour of playing the other day, My DC-3 combo was running really hot in the back. No redplating or other changes that i could see... but smoking hot and there started to be "doubling effect" in the clean channel and the distortion became grainy and unnatural... Since then, I...

    Nomad... middle ground between Maverick and Mark IV???

    I'm looking for the middle ground between the maverick and Mark IV... Mark Iv is too edgy and the Maverick a little too smooth... However, they are both awesome amps... is the Nomad a respectable middle ground b/w the two?

    Mark IVa sounds really good with V30s

    Just hooked my 112 EV Mark IVa combo up to a recto OS 412 with mesa V30s and I really like the result... more presence and top end available and 'crunches' better on R2 and LEad... Cleans still really decent... Mesa seems to have solved the clean problem that V30s can impose on certain...

    Blue Angel... How boutiquey does it sound ?

    Does the blue angel get into the Dr Z THD Bad Cat territory as far as tone goes? I'm looking for a single channel head with volume and tone controls that I can crank up. Does the angel have the full spectrum sound that some of these orbs amps donor is the angel darker and more mid focused?
