I wanna record some guitar parts without using my 2x12 cab and crank the poweramp a little more, so the signal path would be: Guitar-->Preamp+Effects-->50w tube poweramp-->dummy load-di box-->sound board. The poweramp's a Mesa 50/50 with both 8ohm and 4ohm speaker outputs so my question is: is...

I've checked if this topic has already been covered but I didn't find anything so I'm sorry if this has already been answered. I've always wondered if you can turn the Hi/Lo mode switch on the 50/50 poweramp up and down with the amp on or if you've to turn it off before changing the mode. The...

I was looking for a maple/maple neck for an alder/maple strat like guitar and ended up looking at some padouk/padouk necks. Searching on the web a lot says its tone's similar to maple, maybe a little warmer but, what really intrigues me, it's used raw, without any finish on it. That's awesome...

Hi guys I'm gonna do some home recording again (after many years) but this time I'll be recording my solo stuff so I'll be doing all the tracks/instruments by myself (aside some sporadic help/fun with my formers bassist and lead guitarist and some friends from other bands). I'll be not using...

Right now my main live and studio rig is Triaxis based and uses as main Fx source a T.C. Electronic G-Major. It works fine but my first need has been an audio switcher (GCX) to switch it out when not needed (basically I've it ever engaged for noise gate or compression... but I prefer to be able...

Hi guys I can't find on the internet (neither on the manulas) wich are the advantages and disvantages of the 2 different settings on the G-Major (internal clock 44.1kHz and 48kHz). I know that in the end I'll go for the "let your ear choose" but I'm just looking to understand why T.C...

Hi guys Yesterday I was playing at home just to try some new sounds at a quite low volume (or what you can assume to be low volume with Mesa amps :D) and the fuse (with his cap holder) just popped out of my 50/50 power amp, I mean it jumped out on the floor just like spinned by a spring and...
