I am pretty certain it is something your local repair tech can fix. I had something similar happen back when I had my roadster. When turning the power on soon as the switch was flipped it would immediately blow a fuse. Turned out to be a varistor. Took it to the local tech and all he had to...
When I had my roadster I played it through a road king 2x12. My band mate had a rectifier 2x12 with v30s. In playing the roadster through both cabs I definitely liked the roadking cab better. Part of it could have been due to the fact of one side being open with the roadking but I found the...
I had the same problem. I bought my roadster in July of '08 and at that time thought the roadster would be more versatile. I tweaked the roadster for 2 yrs and was never really satisfied with it. I just sold it last month and got a Mark V. Like screamingdaisy stated the first night I played...
I really like the 010 GHS Boomers. I have tried cleartones, ernie balls, elixir, etc. but always favored the boomers for price and quality. May be just me but I have always seemed to have tuning issues with ernie balls.
Haven't played the Warrior through it much but I love the Firebird. Just have to roll the tone knob back a little though with the bridge pickup to keep it from getting too bright. Really thinking about trying the Lollar pickups :?:
I agree. I was suprised how easy it was to dial in a great tone. It truly was like you said plug and play. I spent 2 years tweaking the roadster and I never could get it to where I was satisfied. One day it would sound great the next not so great.
The only problem I am finding with the...
Last night was my first band practice with my new mark V. Needless to say I was very well pleased with tones. This is probably the best equipment purchase I have made. I have no regrets selling the roadster. The tone I am getting is what has been in my head all this time. Playing the Mark...
I had a Roadster for a couple of years. One of the guitar players in our band has a 2x12 rectifier cab that I played through a couple of times. I normally used a 2x12 roadking cab with the roadster. In comparison between the two the rectifier cab had quite bit more lows but in my opinion not...
Not trying to hijack the tread but I have a Firebird V and was thinking about getting the Lollar minihumbuckers. How do you like them in comparison to the original Firebird pickups and how do they handle overdrive/distortion tones? I am currently using a Mark V.
Thanks, I had all intentions of ordering a standard black head and use it with my 2x12 road king cab. I knew this particular setup was at my local dealer and when I went to try it out the dealer told me they would sell it to me at regular cost without paying the upcharge for the custom color...
I am new to the forum but have been a silent observer for two years. During this time I owned a Roadster. The Roadster was good to me and was a real work horse, however no matter how hard I tried in the end it just wasn't the sound I was looking for. Not bashing the roadster, it is a great...
