Hi. I’m looking to simplify my rig. Used to run a rack unit with midi controller. Currently in a band that does a lot of opener slots for bigger touring packages and have to set up in front of a whole tour package’s worth of backline as well as have limited setup/tear down time. Looking for a...

Hi. I just got an older VHT Pittbull UL. It’s the version with 6 preamp tubes, a 12AX7 as the pi and an option for 12AX7 or 12AU7 as a driver tube before the power tubes. Anybody have experience A/B both types? I believe the current versions run a 12AT7 in that slot. Any idea if I can safely run...

So I have an 84 Gibson Explorer project in the works and it’s only going to have one pickup at the bridge position. Looking for a pickguard that would cover the neck pickup cavity completely. Would anybody know if a pickguard from an Explorer Melody Maker Work? Or are the body dimensions...

Got a post 2011 upgraded tranny version of the Engl Savage 120. This is my 2nd Savage. Every amp I've had since I sold my first one seemed loose and undefined compared to the Savage. So with that said, the fact they upgraded the OT, and the price dude was asking, I decided the newer Savage...

So I think I'm going to take some of you guys' advice and try the upgraded transformer post 2012 version of the Savage 120. I found one for sale for a good price within driving distance. Guy says he bought it new in 2013. Is there anyway to tell the difference from the older smaller tranny ones...

After research and owning a Savage I've decided Engl is my sound. At least their type of gain structure. Owned a Savage. Loved it minus the lack of low end girth. Decided I'm probably going to go for an Invader or an SE as they seem to be Engls with a bit more girth. What is everyone's thoughts...

Yeah obviously the speakers. But construction wise, is there a difference between the AX/BX cabs from the regular 1960 cabs? Love the look of a beat to shit greenback cab with the gray grill cloth. Thinking about getting one used and switching out greenbacks for V30/T75's.

I have a Les Paul Studio Platinum from 2003 I think. I've read that those do not have the maple top other Les Paul's have. It is tuned to drop Bb. I use it for Neurosis, Tool, Devin Townsend style riffs but going for that Fear Factory, SYL, Meshuggah type tones. I really liked the stock Gibson...

Anybody ever seen any for sale? I've seen a couple threads about people doing it diy.

I've been driving myself crazy and am really stressing myself out over what amp to purchase. I have money saved. It's just a matter of choosing the right one. I've talked to many of you on here about previous amps I've owned. What I like and don't like. I've narrowed it down between getting the...

Anyone try these? Specifically the Chisel and Anvil?

So I've been posting asking about opinions on different amps lately. I really need to just go try some stuff out. I live in Peoria, IL. Looking for some suggestions for stores to try out amps in the Chicago or St. Louis area. Or anywhere a few hours driving distance from central IL. Looking to...

Known about Peters Amplification for a while. Never had any experience with one. They seem to get a lot of praise. How do you guys like them in a down tuned modern aggressive metal context? Tones like Fear Factory, Meshuggah, SYL. Specifically talking about the higher gain models like the FSM...

A few people have messaged me on here before. One guy just messaged me about wanting to buy a cab I had posted about in the regular rig talk forum that I wasn't happy with. I have responded twice and have not heard back from him. I went to look at my outbox and sent messages and both say empty.

Hi guys. I have a Mills Afterburner straight 4X12 with an X pattern of v30's and K100's. When I first got it, it was hands down the best cab I ever heard. Super deep lows but tight and had highs to match. Every other cab sounded like a tin can. These days I've noticed it sounds really really...

I have a "Metalhead" modded JCM 800 2203 (Dino Fear Factory Demanufacture mod) for sale on reverb and got offered a trade for a Peters GNL/Halo. What do you guys think of those amps? They seem really growly in clips I've heard. However the GNL clips I've heard although heavy and downtuned, seem...

Anyone have experience with both of these? I know the differences in specs but can anybody elaborate on the sonic differences between the 2 in a high gain metal context?

Anyone have actual experience with a Randall Satan and or a 667? I made a post a few days ago asking about VHT and Engl models and possibly making an Engl/VHT rack setup. I really like the Pittbull UL but wish it had the gain and that edge to it that Engls have and wish Engls weren't so thin and...

Looking for suggestions on a single analog chorus pedal. Nothing digital or multifx. Preferably something true bypass or at least doesn't suck your tone having in your signal path. I play a lot of extreme and proggy spacy metal. I use chorus a lot on big complex spacy chords.

Ok looking for reccomendations here folks. I've been through quite a few heads this past year looking for the right one. I owned an Engl Savage 120 for 9 years. Absolutely loved everything about it except for the lack of low end/low mid heft. Was just too thin sounding. The gain on it was...
