    Who the hell is Grace Bowels...or Bowers???

    I checked out a few of her videos and she's a great player. I dig her style and sound and I'm glad someone young is into that stuff. If it gets other younger players into it vs the rest of the garbage on the radio, good for her being that influence. Is she worth handing some expensive...

    The Friedman IR-D Preamp Is Here!

    I really dig this thing. I like it more than my IR-X I used to have. I think the overall gain structure of the IR-D is more flexible also. Great low gain crunch and IMO better higher gain sounds too. It sounds really good through my powerstation and splawn cab too. (Again, better than the...

    The UA Lion + OX Stomp combo has me seriously impressed

    Our band has started playing more small venues that don't have room for a full amp/cab setup and we've been slowly evolving to a pedalboard-only setup as an option for those places. We run DI into our PA and use IEM's and if we have space, we will use FRFR's behind us for some stage sound...

    Wireless WTF's ??

    I have the new version of the Shure system (16+) and it's amazing. The input where you can just run a cable from your instrument into the GLXD is really handy if you have a tight pedalboard setup. I've used the L6 Relay 30 and 50, Boss WL50 and WL60 and ALL of those have problems with a few...

    My opinions on gear at NAMM

    Good to know that Strandberg have come to their senses on pricing. I love my Boden Standard and it's built well and plays REALLY well but it's just not a $1800 guitar and $2500+ for the Progs still coming from the same Indonesian factory is absolute lunacy. The $800 Schecter Indonesian SVSS I...

    Gibson's $1000 "1959 Humbucker" PAF in a $400 Guitar?

    I always thought the "Doyle Coils" were supposed to be the most authentic... Tom Doyle certainly hypes them up to be.

    Generic latching switch doesn't change channels on Runt 50

    I've got a generic latching switch for my SLO with an LED that functions properly with that amp but nothing happens when I try to use it with the Runt and I'm wondering what about the switch is causing it to not work. I used to have another switch without an LED that worked with both the Runt...

    FS - Mint condition Mesa Studio Preamp + Roadcase

    To be honest, I have no idea what anything should go for these days. That's about where the rest of them on Reverb are listed but I've left it (and the superlead I'm selling) open for offers.

    Nah I'm good. Just looking for $ right now.

    SOLD: Myasnikov X88R clone

    I have a SLO now so the X88R doesn't get much use. This one has been modified to use an included 3 button switch to change channels and connects via an ethernet cable.

    Fighting ground buzz when trying to split signal

    I think my main problem is that I don't know where the hum or buzzing is actually coming from because it happens with every device and it happens in my studio and at the bar I played at this weekend. I've tried using two different furman PL-Plus conditioners at both locations too so I'm just...

    Fighting ground buzz when trying to split signal

    Yeah everything is coming from the furman. I've tried the ground switch on the helix with no change in sound. Also, it is not limited to the helix. I can literally just plug the guitar into the ditto and then try to connect the left and right outputs and still get the buzz. I can run one...
