Hey, I was wondering where everybody went... :cry: I haven't seen you guys around HC for a while. :)

Anyway, great clip as always...makes me want to grab my Andy Timmons cd again! :D

Awesome clips man... It does have that Xotic feel my friend's AC booster had. Some signature to them. I wish I could some how mesh that with the less chirp I get from my TS9s. Sometimes it works, and sometimes I've been trying to lessen to the chirp, but I'm not always successful.

Peace homie.

Thanks man! I'm not sure what the differences are between the AC,RC and BB but everyone seemed to love the BB so I decided to give it a shot... :)

I pop in on HC, but it's kinda lame and most of the people I talked to are here now.

Thanks man! AT RULEZ! :D

Good job V!

That song of Andy's is one of my all time favorite tones, he told me once the first half of the song is the clean channel of a 5150. But that the amp only sounded like that for 20 minutes at a time, so they would turn it off for an hour and go back again... ANYHOW :)

I think YOUR tone is working great, maybe turn turn the volume down on your guitar a bit, with the same amp/pedal settings. The original seems to have a little more bark on the attack, but less gain.

Killer playing Sir
Thanks Lance!

5150? Really? Weird! Yeah this guitar has a JB in it.. so it's a bit gainier...

Andy used his older (pre-sig) Ibanez with a JB in the bridge too if it helps :D

I quized him about it because I dug the tone so much.

Hmmm... Very interesting... 8)
 
I prefer the 808 hands down clarity and push. BB I had and same problem here not same problme but a little to soft, compressed and dark. Almost like a XTC (good thing) but not quite.

what type of amp is that vlad? MV?

It's a1971 Marshall Super Lead with a Hotplate and Rich mod PPIMV. I ended up selling the OD808 and keeping the BB. I like that pedal alot.
 
wow sounds nice. what is the tonal differences between the PPIMV - Super Lead and JCM800?

Thanks man... This amp is magic... No joke. Best amp I've owned.

The SL has less gain, more sag and some (older ones) are darker-sounding. The 800 is brighter, a bit more gain and is a good deal tighter. Both are loud as all hell.
 
so with the PPIMV is it like a MV?

Peter on Diezel bord said: a PPIMV drives everything up, thats why (IMO) its hard to avoid mud with - lets call it - serious gain levels

but maybe different for a Super lead. Have you tried the reissue 100w super lead?

Hmmm... Not sure if I would agree with that description for this particular amp. It sounds like it did without the PPIMV except my ears aren't ringing... :D

I haven't tried the new ones. I've heard the 1959HW in clips and it sounds real close to mine.
 
Yeah EQ volume? Do you have to do tht input thing..... where you put a cord from input 2 into input 1?
