Hey guys so I have been working on a crazy idea- one was to make a metal-ized cover of Country Boy Can Survive and second was to track with my Roadster and do all the leads and harmony with the Stiletto- the Stiletto Deuce cuts (no pun intended) right through the mix and found it very...

Hey bud that sucks about your FX loop issue- might I suggest changing out the V5 12Ax7 (pre-amp tube) that tube in particular drives your fx send and return and could be causing the shenanigans From left to right count over 5 pull that and replace it with another if you have one or...

awesome glad to hear that- give us some feed back on it after you get done fondling with it for a bit- hahaha

Hey guys- I decided to share a quick video I made- of what not to do- Its a slightly comical approach and some are very obvious. I know I have spent countless hours on youtube and forums alike trying to figure out this recording thing- and trust me I have a long long way to go...

I would almost bet money that there is an issue with your V4 pre-amp tube. The V4 12AX7 controls or powers the reverb, for your amp If you have a spare 12AX7 pre-amp tube laying around swap it out - if not they are not that expensive. Hope that helps!

I was under the interpretation that they are using Randall amps now- but cant say with certainty

Cool deal when its time for me to re-tube I'll give JJ's a second look or consideration specially given that you as well are rolling with the roadster

Correct- from my understanding Mesa has a system they do in which then they brand certain tubes as their own- so your more than likely correct about the origins of said tubes. I can see some validity in swapping the V1 to a Tung-Sol but even then the difference for me in my small world...

Ok so I have 2 Mesa Roadsters laying around and both are loaded with different tubes. One is completely loaded with Mesa Branded Tubes (6L6)- the other is a set from Dougs Tubes (6L6) match quad with a mix match going on in the pre-amp section. So I decided to throw together a quick...

Im going to selflessly plug for the Torpedo live - you can record with the Torpedo Live as thats what I use it for mainly. I just run a TRS to XLR right to my interface. As for the cab and mic software- Im no computer whizz and often times I am challenged by new whiz bang things...

Thanks!

Id check www.sweetwater.com shipping is at times free or very reasonable

So I have recently acquired a Mesa 2x12- I have had the Orange 2x12 for years now, and a comparison was inevitable. However much to my dismay I discovered Chinese made V30's in my Orange cabinet which has really thrown me for a loop. Guess thats why from here on out Im sticking strictly...

I agree- I do like my Maxon and will continue to use it in certain applications but the Grid Slammer has a different mojo to it for sure

I would start with your V1 pre amp tube - swap that one out if you have a spare and see if that solves your problem

Absolutely- and to each their own and yes certain styles can benefit from different gain stages. I was honestly kind of blown away with how the Brit Mode sounded- I think if I put a Maxon in front of that - that it would be pretty killer for some re-vamped old school metallica or...

So I ask the question : How Much Gain Do You Need? The results may surprise you- or maybe not. Hopefully some of you will find this useful. Let me know what you think!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4ln1PEfFUg

Yea man thats sounds a lot tighter- great job boss!

Great stuff man- thanks for sharing- great tone and amazing playing. Im on the fringe of picking up a stiletto myself- and too have wondered why they were not well received.

A short and sweet back to back to back comparison of the Maxon OD808 Mesa Grid Slammer and the MXR Custom OD. Which one do you think sounds better? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGo8KqaiKsI Thanks for watching!
