    FS/FT Electra Dyne 1x12 combo...

    Alright, I love the Dyne, but it's absurd for bedroom use, and I want a mark... So I'm offering up my ED 1x12 combo. I would post pics, but I swear to god it looks just like every other 1x12 ED combo in the world, if you don't believe me, PM me and I will prove it to you. If you are in the...

    Installed a Greenback in my LSS combo

    I run my LSS into an oversized Marshall 4x12 with 25 watt greenbacks. IMO full size Lonestars sound best with V30s, the upper mid push and tight bass tends to even things out and prevent any classic "Lonestar" problems. I like my LSS with Greenbacks because they sound noticeably more...

    Weird screech with ED 1x12...cone cry?

    It's not fret buzz, all my guitars do the same thing into the ED, but none of them do it into my LSS. It could very well be a tube, I'll unscrew the back and check them tonight! Thanks guys!

    Weird screech with ED 1x12...cone cry?

    Me and my Electra Dyne have had a pretty rocky relationship, it took me a long time to really appreciate how killer this amp could sound, for several months it just sat in my living room waiting to be sold. However one Sunday afternoon on a whim I decided to plug my trusty Les Paul into it and...

    Smoothing out LSS channel 2...

    I've been playing a lot with my Jem, trying to cop a good instrumental/shred tone, but every tone I get just sounds too hairy and crunchy. I'm currently EQing like so gain - 1 oclock drive - 3 oclock treble - 2oclock mids - 9 oclock bass - 11 oclock presence - 9 oclock master 11 oclock I'm set...

    Inconsistant tones out of my LSS...

    When I like the tones coming out of my Lonestar Special...I LOVE them, it really is the best electric guitar tone I've ever had. I dial it in in true LS fashion, fat, clear, singing, warm crunch without a lot of rough edges or grind. I've got my settings, I don't change them (I'm scared of...

    any electradyne metal clips??

    I've been messing around with my "metal" guitar and Vintage Hi...I can't make any clips, but my favorite settings have been as follows: Volume: 5:00, or 3:00 with a tubescreamer Treble: 3:00 Middle: 8:00 - 9:00 (this amp sounds REALLY at home scooped! and I'm, usually not into that kinda thing)...

    Post removed.

    EQ knobs are for the most part are passive controls, meaning that at 10, nothing is being attenuated and the full signal is passing through, anything below 10, that frequencie is being cut. The sliders on a GEQ are active controls, meaning that when they are all the way up the signal is being...

    School me on which Mark I want...

    I actually want a IIc+ just like everyone else, but I can't freaking afford one :lol: I'm not terribly worried about rhythm tones, I've never had any trouble finding a nice chunky chording tone out of an amp I've plugged into, lead tones are another story. I want "that" lead tone, the so...

    2x12 Recto vs Lonestar cab for LSS head

    Just wondering if anyone has tried both and what the main differences are... Looking for something with tight bass, good upper mids, and a really clear high end to sit well with the loose, low mid dominant amp. I would even consider (actually I'd prefer) a 1x12, but I worry about the bass being...

    ED player thinking about jumping ship, a few questions...

    Ok, that makes me think that there is something wrong with my ED... The amp sounds fine at very low volumes but as soon as the master creeps up past 11 o'clock all of the girth and thickness disappears. Also, it is a lot crunchier than I want...I'm looking for a smoother tone.

    "Timmons" type tone in a band situation??

    I've had this problem in the past... If you try and dial in a tone as thick and punchy as Andy's without a bass player and kick drum, when they get introduced into the mix your tone will completely disappear. Which is why you have to do what Andy does and EQ with a band, it's not all that...

    ED player thinking about jumping ship, a few questions...

    I figured some people would ask what my misgivings about the ED was when I started this thread... In short, I find that as the master volume goes up all of the fattness and punch vanishes, the amp gets extremely tight and bright. At lower volumes (master at 8-8:30) it sounds wonderfully thick...

    Help me love my ED...

    The gain trim is set to clean, the reverb is off, and it sounds nearly identical. I adressed the TS earlier, I simply don't want to rely on a pedal. I'll check the tubes before I sell anything, thanks for all the tips...

    ED player thinking about jumping ship, a few questions...

    If any of you are interested in my tonal strife lately, I've got an active topic in the Electra Dyne section you can check out. Long story short, I hate my ED... I'm almost sure I'm going to sell it, I might try and make it work one more time, but I'm at the end of my rope with that thing. If...

    Help me love my ED...

    So I sat down with my ED for a couple of hours today and I'm starting to lose hope...on top of the general tone problem I now have some pretty serious cone cry when I play in the high register, I know that it goes away over time, but at this point it just adds insult to injury. The level of...

    Help me love my ED...

    That is exactly what I'm going for, but I'm just not getting it. With the gain at 3:00 and the master at 11:00 I get a really tight, really aggressive, really grainy lead tone. It does't even sound bad, it's just not what I want and not what it sounds like with the master much lower. What I...

    Help me love my ED...

    Ok, a little background info... I'm a Les Paul Marshall guy from way back, a JTM45 half stack and a 70's LP Standard with a TC G-System and a few odd boosts has been my rig ever since I started gigging. In the last few years two things have happened: 1. I realized that a non master volume amp...
