I have a setup of rack gear that I want to sell but probably trade. It all has to go in one deal so its going to be slow on here but I expect that. Im just out of room for this rack gear and I need to move it and figure amps/guitars would be a better fit for now. Im in Cleveland and a local...

Looking for a custom shop tele or a custom shop mid 50s strat. Must have 9.5" radius and large frets. I have a mint condition charvel usa select that Id trade and add cash as needed. OR Id trade for a vintage fender amp. Ideally towards a blackface deluxe reverb but even some tweeds...

I have a 77 marshall cab. Sounds great. Full volume nothing cuts out. But at lower volumes on palm mutes I hear a clear crackle. I didn’t pinpoint a speaker yet but it sound bad. When louder it masks it and at lower volumes it’s not pushing it hard enough to crackle. I don’t think it’s blown...

I owned both but no longer have either. I have the JJ jr, SS100, and Marsha 100w. But I am curious in the differences in the JJ vs BE. I have read and found that the JBE is basically HBE, C45, Sat and that makes sense to me. I also know the JJ has a .0068 vs .0047 depth. But what I am...

I am trying to figure out line levels to use. To simplify this let’s just use this gear. Soldano sp77 - Tc major 2 : pro +4 on the input setting as you only have the shoice of consumer or pro. But what do I set output range to? I have 2, 8, 14, 20 as an option. - Spx 90 set to ? +4 or -20...

I have an 80 jmp that is setup for 6550s. When I got it, it had el34 with the bias pot maxed abs getting 12ma. So I decided to try 6550 because I don’t have any amps with them. I assumed I would put these in and bias up really well. But that’s not happening. Now I can’t bias cold enough. From...

I cant find a schematic for the mesa stiletto. Anyone have a link?

In this soldano circuit I see a couple things that I understand in practice but not really the science behind it. Im hoping people can help at the expense of me sounding stupid. This isnt necessarily soldano specific but its what they do and the schematic I am linking to. Cathode Bypass It...

I am looking for a vintage marshall super lead fuse holder. The one with the brass ring on the front and flat screw for fuses. Mine broke and before I take one from another amp, I thought Id ask.

I recently bought an old super lead and went to check the fuses and the one fuse holder snapped. I assume it was broken and glued and when I went to tighten it, it snapped. I have another super lead that’s been modded so I wanted to take that fuse holder out because it matches and then put a...

I am struggling to find a way to know what colors are for each output impedance. I don’t want to take for granted that old amps are wired properly. Not only that, I have a 72 and a 73 that have the same color wires but one impedance selector has been messed with I think. Id like to learn how to...

I cant tell but on my 74 st1 board is the trace connected where v2 pin 3 and pin 8 meet at the board? Each has a yellow wire but it looks like the traces connect under the board. But on all schematics and layouts I dont see these connecting. In the new v2 versions of the board its clearly not...

How do I tell or measure to see what wire on the impedance selector is for what ohm? This is for a marshall 4-8-16. I thought I’d I used a multimeter and measured ohms I’d be able to tell but everything reads around 1 ohm.

I have another thread about a 74 50w I picked up that had a lot going on. It is biasing to only 22-23ma with EL34s so we assume its made for 6550s. I also have a 1980 JMP 2203 that has been sitting since I bought it so I checked the bias and I get the exact same thing of 22-23ma max with EL34...

I picked up this 74 50 watt last night. I knew it was a little bit of a mess but the sound was really good and the package deal I worked made it worth the trouble. Lots of weird things in this amp for sure. Looking for some input and help. FX loop was added long ago and 2 new jacks and a...

I want to swap the pickup in my friedman cali that alder/rosewood. I have a cali thats ash/maple and it sound good with the stock pickup (I might want something hotter) but my alder body sounds loose in the low end and muddy. Its great for super low gain stuff but I am looking for the 80s into...
