First thing I think of is the Teisco Overdrive. I took a chance on it and I hated saying it, but it was a really great "transparent" overdrive. It had a lot of range and a switch to "kick" up the gain a little more. I'm usually a Maxon OD808 guy, I always have one on me. I went through a purge...

I remember this guy absolutely demolishing at some guitar shred event or something

Mojotone really surprised me with their pickups. I had a set of the Tomahawks (Dustie Waring Signature) in two of his CE24's. They sounded absolutely monstrous, articulate, yet still chunky where you want in the palm mutes. Their 44 Magnum pickup is supposedly really great for recording.

I've taken this off my 1993 PRS CU24 - It's one entire solid piece of red brass according to John Mann, the actual bridge and the block are entirely one solid piece. Including the trem bar, claw, mounting screws, some springs and a 3D printed block I used to block the trem and make it easier to...

No problem! Good luck on your modding adventure. I'm going to end up trying everything listed in that thread. The face plate is mounted with some strong glue. The plywood behind it has a laminated top. Just make sure to get that sucker warm/hot. I ended up accidentally ripping off that...

Get yourself the latest issue:

I miss my Rev G, which I stupidly sold for a stinky ass Badlamer. Was it a bit spongey? Yes. Did it always need a boost? Also yes. Needed your ears to bleed to get that good tone? Yes. Did it sound brutal as hell once you had good tubes and a OD808 in front? Also yes. Mine had Mike B's...

Sign me the fuck up :ROFLMAO:

I'll be 37 shortly. I was a bondsman for several years and worked closely in Lehigh County Prison. I would pretty much spend half the day sitting in intake, sending leads to my partner in the office. Man. What a miserable place prisons are. The smell. I've never smelled that smell anywhere else...

This pedal was designed by Nick at Dunwich Amplification and was built by Paul at PLX-FX. It's very obviously trying to recreate the Metallica IIC+ sound. It's a Mesa Mark IIC+ preamp with an Aphex EQF-2 style Parametric EQ built in. There aren't many of these in the wild. Does it sound like a...

I got laid off. I've always had an eye out for other things, decent offers thrown my way. Nope, I was a stupid asshole that stayed loyal just to get laid off. Now all those prospects I was looking at dried up. I've applied to a crazy amount of jobs and hear nothing back. I really think you're...

It does have an input clipping LED or "Preamp Clip". When you lower the output volume of a preamp pedal, modeler or effects so that it doesn't clip, you then have to crank the level of the PS200. Eventually you get to a point where the PS200 is at 2 to 3 O'clock and the Power Amp Clip LED lights...

I run a Quad Cortex thru a Powerstage 170 into a cab. It's about 96db loud when the knob is turned <- 9 O'clock or 25% of the way up. This was through a Mesa 4x12. Sounded great and gets way louder than that. Do not buy a Powerstage 200. They have issues with input clipping. When I had a...

FWIW, I sold my Rev G for a Badlander and regretted it big time. Badlander had no balls and wasn't a "Recto that doesn't need a boost". I had the gain on my Badlander dimed and it wasn't enough, mushy. Multiple buddies I jammed with were surprised at the difference. I sold my Badlander in less...
