Given that it's a John Petrucci signature amp, I would expect the JP-2C to feature a lead tone that is emulated after the C++ (aka Petrucci mod), which has more low-mids and gain than the standard C+ voicing. However, I haven't played a JP-2C yet to see how it compares tonally with a C++ or C+...

I think I found a unicorn - a C++ Simulclass Coliseum with graphic EQ, reverb and even 415/416 tubes...(wait, are those 416s in the correct sockets?) Hetfield doesn't even have one of these. But Jesus, for $15,000? http://m.ebay.com/itm/111491986652?nav=SEARCH That 4 digit serial number looks...

I have two 16 ohm cabs that I'd like to run into my C+ as a full stack. There is only one 8 ohm jack and two 4 ohm jacks on the amp, so running two 16 ohm cabs is not quite compatible - doable but not ideal. What I need to make this work is two 8 ohm jacks on the amp. Now, looking at the...

I recently bought a 1984 Gibson Flying V (sans pickguard) off of eBay. The Dirty Fingers in it were beyond microphonic and were swapped out for an EMG 81/60 set. However, the microphonic-like noise persisted, though not as severe with the EMGs. Nevertheless, the noise is so bad that it can even...

I run my V2 nonfat Triaxis in stereo and use a Boss Super Chorus through the effects loop for my cleans. The pedal works fine when run in stereo (wet/wet), but if I try to run wet/dry by unplugging one of the two cables between the pedal's output and the effects loop's return, the corresponding...

I just bought a purple satin MIM Fender Strat with 3 stock single coils and I really like it. Gorgeous guitar, plus the cleans I get out of the neck and middle are just what I wanted. However, the bridge pup ain't cuttin the mustard, particularly when using IIC+ or modded Plexi distortion to...

I've recently noticed many guitarists, mostly on other forums, talking about mismatching power tubes. Some say they prefer it. Others try to avoid it. But very few actually specify how mismatched they're talking about when they write about it. I used to think that a 3 mA spread was the limit...

I recently purchased what was touted to be a matched pair of Mesa Str-416 6CA7s with plenty of life left on them. But considering the money I paid, I'm a bit let down. They were supposed to replace the Str-447 EL34s in my C+, but I think I prefer the 447s, which are tighter, punchier, and more...

One pair of Mesa branded dual getter Str-415s. Any sellers?
