For a 112 open cab/combo I like the cl80, which are now again being made in the UK, and then you also have the mesa version mc90.

Any opinions yet on the amp or which boost worked best?

Also remember that you have the send-level knob, which most people just leave at noon by default. It is just there to knock down the level for sensitive effects/pedals in the loop, so experiment with setting it higher, especially if you have nothing in the loop. The 50w solo/rectoverb never...

For tone I like the mogami golds, and for the actual guitar to first pedal cable I like the older versions with the smaller non-neutrik ends. For flexibility and durability I like my old Ibanez custom gold-tips 22ft. cable. I've had it for 20+ years and it would be my choice as the guitar cable...

I'd like to hear these compared straight-up to a k100 of the same ohms.

Overall I go with the cf jazz3 max-grip. For leads especially I prefer it's tip and bevel over the sharper-pointed tips like my other favorite JP Trinity. If you like the flow tip then give the JP Trinity a try. It's the best for tight clear technical alt-picking and there are literally three...

This wasn't really a speaker shootout,,,,it was a cab shootout. To be a speaker shootout you would have to compare different speakers within the same or very similar cabs, although close-miking does negate a good deal of the differences, while comparing in-the-room tone is all about the...

Nah you got me all wrong sorry. I simply found humor in the contrast between your and Karl's description of the M65. I've never had the chance to play one myself, but the OP was asking what to mix with the M65, and I suggested the t75.

Try a quad of classic-leads CL-80. The newest are back being made in the UK.

Karl Sanders sure disagrees! skip to 6:15

mix with t75,,,,,,but place the t75s on bottom.
