These are the only available at my local store, J&K electronics. They are so small I would think they are 200 V and not the 630 that they are advertised as.
I was going to publish it next to a cap inside the amp, for comparison but the amp is out in the garage and I just can’t do it right now...
Putting in an order at tubes and more.
Considering the 470 Ohm For my power tubes-fender super reverb and fender bantam bass, for reduced size and workability
is it overkill? Would I want them to blow easier...
Has anyone worked with either of these? Edit (sorry the pictures are doubled- there’s a link at the bottom for the other choice) I’m thinking of putting it on a 69 fender bantam bass, that has a new baffle with a 10 and 12 inch speaker.
One weird thing is that the cabinet, although an original...
I cut a new baffle for my Bantam Bass-If you’re unfamiliar it’s basically a removable front baffle era super reverb cabinet/chassis, with aluminum cast frame, Yamaha 30 W trapezoidal speaker.
The grill cloth on the original baffle is in perfect shape, and I’m wondering if anyone has removed...
Just finished this up last night or early yesterday morning. I had it up & playing, but wiring needed to be redone, and the pots weren’t correct for me.
I went with 500K A CTS, for both volumes and the one tone. I didn’t have enough (4) so I tried a used dual gang one meg for the rear tone...
Does anyone have experience with either these Wilkingson pick ups or AliExpress or Angel something or other store? I have an inexpensive Yamaha Bass that I use in my home studio that is stock and has one PBass type of pick up. I would like very much to have also that jazz bass sound, and...
I finished the doghouse and the bias board. I have been kicking around the idea of adding adjustable fixed bias to the bias balance, And I came up with this as I had the potentiometer, board & resistor, And figured it was a little better this way than trying to adjust it sideways. It’s...
I’m not 100% sure how this got started but I think I mentioned that a SR Was pretty much my go to amp most of my playing career, which is definitely on the tail end now, but I’ve definitely got a guitar in my hand more often than not still. It had gotten to the point where I just didn’t/couldn’t...
i’ve been considering changing over to 50s wiring and seeing how I like that.
It appears this is wired with the modern scheme. I figured I would just move the tone cap over to the middle/output/volume pot but I’m wondering if the difference in the way the tone pot is laid out would make a...
Has anyone run into a problem and solution for a locked on Dunlop strap lock? In 30 or more years using these I’ve never run into this problem before. I’ve obviously depressed it as much as I could, and I’ve also soaked oil in there overnight and this morning used a spring pin punch on it, but...
I just saw one of my, I guess it was a reply, was deleted due to something political I don’t know exactly what, and that’s what my question goes to. Where would I see what I wrote so I could figure out what I did? Is it obvious and I’m just missing it?
Thoughts on the thickness of LP standards and customs, and most similar guitars with a maple cap on a mahogany back in regards to the decision to make the back so thick?
Wouldn’t this type of guitar benefit from losing, in this case a full 3/8”?
I bet my back, shoulder, and hand(s) would...
I have to admit I haven’t watched the video footage, but I listen to this, it reminds me of some of the better times/tunes from back then.
Maybe someone more fashion forward can fill in if there were actually a couple eras of shoulder pad wearing days? I’ve heard that trends repeat themselves...
I showed the headstock to get an idea of what guitar it is, it also says made in Indonesia on the rear of the headstock. It’s a fun guitar I use it in my home studio a lot. It came with a full set of those roller saddles that you see in the middle four spaces. I don’t know why they were...
Sorry about that title was supposed to say ELECTRO VOICE—-
On a whim I purchased a pair of older somewhat large Electrovoice floor/wedge monitors. I should have grabbed pictures. I’m going back to pick them up tomorrow, they are factory stock with their factory markings, and my eye was caught...
While I am covered in scars and burns I have made it through, probably well past middle life without any tattooing. not really here or there and I really couldn’t care less if anyone has or doesn’t have them, but I am really contemplating my first right here. as people say that they’re...
I erroneously posted a query earlier today in which I mentioned SoundCloud but I meant to say SoundClick-I've been having problems all day and I still can't load anything there, has anyone else experienced this?
It's 5:00 p.m. Friday December 3rd for the past few hours been trying to load stuff to SoundCloud and just wondering if others have experienced problems. I mean SoundCloud specific, not your problems in general, haha, although been pretty good day so far so I'm open.
Is anyone using their effects loop extensively and are you noticing a change in the sound when the loop is kicked in? I guess I could call it sort of nasally. I have experimented with the patch parameters such as send and return levels , global controls pertaining to effects loop level-...
I use this quite often for home recording, and I’m always noticing that the top strings are usually flat every time I take it out of the case.
Today there was actually a buzz and I thought it was maybe my B string saddle. So I messed with that because the intonation was a little out but then I...
Bring me your stolen goods… no I’m just kidding obviously, although as guitarists i’m sure we would all admit to a little pirating/stealing?
This is to anybody thinking about adding whatever they want to the tracks it could be just rhythm parts or drums or singing or whatever, of course even an...
I have two Epi 335 style guitars, One with Grovers and one with unmarked Grover style tuners. Is anyone aware of the weight difference between, say a set of Klusen, or what might be a good substitute to keep the headstock from falling down as rapidly as it does on both of them. I am open to...
Is there an actual specific pod go place to go or do I just shoot my questions here? Thx. I’ve seen varying used to this question but I still haven’t found out if when trails are engaged do they actually go from patch to patch or are they only inside of a patch. I’m pretty sure I’m inSnapshot...
I’m pretty comfortable with this gauge of string-10-46. My high E string bridge saddle is adjusted as far forward as it will go, set as it is. Problem is intonation is just a touch off, it’s-flat, and needs to push forward just a bit. Is my only recourse to change all the saddles after rotating...
