    New Guitar...well new to me

    1991 PRS Custom 24, 10 top, lightweight Honduran mahogany body, one piece trem, #8 pickups (which were made by Lindy Fralin) and a Brazilian rosewood fingerboard. Getting this thing made today would mean a private stock order: It is as good playing and sounding as it is good looking...

    Express 5:50 1X12

    I want a 1X12 combo (have settled on getting a Bogner Shiva) and have been trying a lot. Tried an Express 5:50 for hours today and honestly could not get anything to work for me. This marks the first time I havent gotten sounds out of a mesa that I can work with. Odd, and interesting......

    Replaced the JJ power tubes in my Nomad 45

    replaced with with Ei's and the amp is now WAY better. The JJ's made the amp sound like it was covered in a wet blanket. This is the third amp that has sounded better to me after ditching the JJ tubes.

    running cables from guitar into preamp

    You will loose a ton of signal running 2 18 foot cables. A wah into the effects loop will sound like dung.

    Adjusting Stock Humbuckers on a LP?

    wont effect gain in any meaningful way by adjusting a pole piece. You can balance out your string balance.

    I bought an Explorer

    I think I have owned most every major model of Gibson (still own Les Pauls) except the one I have always wanted. Now I found a good Explorer...it is alive acoustically and plays itself. The pickups are bad (ceramic 500's) and will be replaced with a JB/Pearly Gates combo. Pics:

    Mesa tubes, profits and other amp companies...

    Since Mesa biases their amps in a certain band I dont really mind using their tubes or GT stuff...and an amp will sound best when biased properly so it makes sense for the purchaser to adhere to a certain range. I do branch off and use other makers tubes and have had no issues...I do have...

    STR450 EL34 tubes

    I have recently picked up a Panther head and cabinet and it is, without any doubt, the nicest amp I have ever owned. Anyone else here using a Bad Cats?

    6l6 in stiletto

    Anyone heard of this being done? I know that many people prefer EL34 tubes in Rectifier series amps...was wondering if there is any word on a stiletto running with 6L6 tubes. I know it would call for the amp being modded.....dont really want to do it myself. Just wondering....
