The carbon copy works fine in the 90 watt. My hunch is the pedal is working fine, you just don't like it. It's really only good for a mild slap back type delay (imho, not a big fan of this pedal). If you're looking for huge atmospheric delay sounds there are much better pedals out there. If...

:shock: This seems like a unique opinion for anyone who favors the jp over the v. Is all the magic in the jp’s sliders? At what point does the jp pull ahead for you? I’m not a huge fan of the v sans eq. I welcome the jps fuller, more natural midrange.

Think positive thoughts bandit.

If you really want the JP2C, and you've done your research and slept on it, then go for it. Life is short and there is nothing like having the best. Learn for yourself if it works for you or not. Time will tell. You'll always be able to trade it for about anything. Mesa's usually hold their...

How amps perform at bedroom volume is very subjective. If that's what you're used to or if you seldom ever play at loud volume and it's your first mesa/tube amp and you're really pumped about it, it probably sounds awesome. If you mostly play at loud volumes you probably don't think it sounds...

That's not the road king cab I'm familiar with. It might be for the lone star.

Great video! I went into it kinda rooting for the ace. But when the tc started in the differences were apparent. The tc just sounds more alive, more expressive. Tighter, cleaner, clearer. Like going from standard definition with the ace to high definition with the tc. The high end and the...

Maybe a poll is in order here. 8)

In a nutshell, yea, that's the idea. Have you ever heard people say that you really gotta crank a tube amp to get it to sound good? Or tube amps sound best loud? That's why, because that's the only way you can get those power tubes working hard and influencing more in the overall tone. So...

I'll try to keep this as simple as I can. May not be perfect but you should get the idea. The channel masters, or master as it's called, is just for the pre amps. The output is for the power amp. So master controls the little tubes volume and that gets sent to the big tubes, where the output...

The magic or feel, like anything, can be a preference thing. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. In John Petrucci's case, he prefers pentode 100 watt c+'s over the simul class triode c+'s. James Hetfield prefers the triode wired simul class. Feel is one of those things that have to be...

No, progressive linkage was designed to let you use and combine different power tubes. The power soak is an attenuator. They're not really comparable. The only way to draw a line from one to the other I guess would be if you had your progressive linkage set up to switch from 6l6's to el34's...

At a gig or band practice the difference is noticeable. And the V pales. Recorded tones are different. The V and JP2C would be on par with a real c+ in a recording. Throw them in a mix and they get even less distinguishable. The V is more versatile, you're right, mace. But the JP2C sounds...

They feel different because they are different. Mine is the same way. A bit too loose for my taste as well. I wonder if I can get them to move if I turn it up loud enough. I also sometimes struggle pulling them out, which can be very frustrating. But all worries go away when you start to...

Mine does that as well. This has been asked before but I can't find it. I don't know if the fx loop mod has something to do with this or not. Mine does not have the mod, so delays in the loop will kinda do the same thing.

I like D'Addario nyxl's myself. I think they sound better and last longer than Ernie Balls. I have to change Ernie Balls after only a couple of sessions, where nyxl's can last twice as long, for me anyway. I used to play elixir on all my guitars but non coated strings sound so much better...

I had some excellent results with power tube overdrive on the clean channel recently. Some awesome classic rock tones to be had. Things can get pretty crunchy. 8) I was using an attenuator to keep the flub and the high end under control. An 8 db cut using a hot plate did the trick. Any more...

If you love your amp enough you could think about turning it into a head. Some guys on the board here make good head shells. 8)

I can't say enough about strymon and their delay pedals. The el capistan is a tape style delay and is amazing. The DIG is also fantastic, I plan an buying one soon. They're expensive but I think they're worth every penny. I also own a carbon copy and I think it is a quality pedal with great...
