After the amp is fixed the drive pedal would be useful...

You're going to need to take it to a tech unfortunately to go over the preamp.

The big capacitors shouldn't have anything to do with it. If you swapped the preamp tubes with no success then it's something else in the circuit.

I think the Marshall sounds good here. (y)

I think you may be right.

:love:

I like it...

I thought I had read/seen a long time ago that they had used a JCM 900 at least in part early on. Maybe that's part of it? Here's a post from SS that says H&K and Peavey: https://www.sevenstring.org/threads/korn-gear.42261/ Korn Self Titled: Amps: They used Hughes and Kettner and Peavey in...

I've never had an issue with the Evolution. I consider myself a pretty poor guitar player and my technique is limited, but I find it's easier for me to play when I can actually hear what I'm doing thanks to that articulation. The pickup also has a liquid quality that makes it flow more easily...

I love the X2N. It sounds balanced to me and not harsh at all. The only negative is that it picks up every sound on the guitar being so hot, but not an issue using a noise gate.

I vote for the AA6. As you said,, the crowd won't care.

Ah, okay. I liked that one too.

Did you upload this previously or am I imagining things?

It's not Adam Jones playing in that video, just a fan, which makes this thread feel misleading although there are good points. I agree with you.

It looked like a black to brownish charcoal on the ESP website at the time. Speaking of variability, I also bought another H-300 in trans blue a few years later that had a much thicker neck. I quickly sold it though...

They vary a lot, and the light can have an influence as well. I have an old LTD H-300 that used to look purple in incandescent light, but it now looks blue under 2700k leds.

Swapping electrolytic caps with other brands can smooth things out, believe it or not. Replacing the C8 in my SL-X with a TDK EPCOS smoothed things out a lot, but when I tried a CDE cap of the same value it sounded buzzy and harsh. It's a dual reverb? Are you getting this tone?:

Great comparison! The Mini Rec and ENGL sound best for my taste. (y)

Bigger pedals sound a bit bigger to me. Some people don't notice or don't care, however. I have of lot of mini TS clones that I like, but they have a more narrow quality to them. You could call it a placebo effect, but apparently some pedal designers have claimed this as well.

Very cool! (y)
