    Fryette Ultralead/CLX/Sig X

    OP, i notice you're in AZ somewheres. I just put my Sig X up for sale locally (CL and FB). Im located in Surprise, AZ (NW of Phoenix). Let me know if you're interested. I also have a Deliverance D412(Fane) cab, that I'd let go with it for the right price. They pair extremely well together...

    So which production EL34s actually sound good enough to buy?

    I recently rolled a few different new production EL34 types in my JVM410H. It came (used) with NOS Svetlana EL34s. I found it was lacking in the lows and needed tightening up as well. Some may prefer this, but I do not. So, take this all with a grain of salt, as this is my experience with my...

    Why not a JVM?

    The ultimate high gain head for my needs?

    Guess you wouldn't understand what Ludicrous Speed is either, eh? Lmao And fyi, ludicrous was a reference to VOLUME. Smh

    NGD! 1996 Les Paul Special DC

    Picked up this 1996 Special DC... All original, unmolested and in excellent shape. Has a couple of really small dings around the edges but nothing major at all to speak of. I got really lucky finding one of these mid 90's DC's at a reasonable price (considering the current market). Paid $1700...

    Woah! Almost sold my splawn

    A friend of mine lent me his Comp 50. I've had it for a few weeks now, and you're right, it is one mean sounding amp. Absolutely glorious Marshal tones. I'm running this one in first gear with gain @ 9 o'clock, noodling on some Zeppelin ;)

    @MatrixClaw, how did you make out with your Siggy? And @stephensawall, is there any advantage, attenuation-wise, to using the PS with your Sig? I've been contemplating getting a PS for mine. The tones from the Sig are pretty decent at low volumes when using the Effects Level as a MV. But I am...

    Blammo! Get those JJ's outa there! I had JJ's in mine when I first got it and it was horrible! Siggy don't like JJ's at all lol. I'd leave the KT88s alone for now. Swap out the pre's first and I bet she wakes right up. ~Troy

    This tells me your preamp tubes may very well be the issue. There is (should be) a pretty significant difference in sound and feel between those settings. Roll some tubes in V1, V2, V3 & V4 and see if she wakes up. V1 is most important. You can download the Sig manual and will tell you which...

    Can you give us an idea, song/band wise of what you're after? Metal and high gain means different things to different folks. Also, are you running any effects in front or in the loop? You may have a tone sucker. And as for tubes, i believe I have an LPS in the pi, TungSol in V1, EHX in...

    You should definitely be able to hear the difference in the switch positions. That alone tells me something isnt quite right. I'd check your preamp tubes and check the bias. The Sig is a very different kind of high gain. It comes accross as very uncompressed. So it may just not be your...

    The ultimate high gain head for my needs?

    Well, that depends on your definition of heavy. My idea of "heavy", is CHUG! Like, i dont even need a bass player kinda chug...with a crisp top end....lol. But all of that can also be dialed in to pretty much all points in between... sooo...it all depends:dunno: As of late, I dont read much...

    The ultimate high gain head for my needs?

    I may have missed this being mentioned, and my apologies if I have, but imo, a Fryette Sig X will do what you want in spades. You can take it even further with a boost pedal out front. I know you mentioned not liking the stiffness of VHT(Fryette), but with the Resonance control dialed up and a...
