1000%. That's a kick ass album. They re-reorded every song to perfection, and I believe that was Skolnick's first album back with the band.
Live In London was a few years later and Peterson used the Recto live. I got the DVD back then. He rocked a nice Dean Cadillac, and I believe an Edwards...
I've had both for a Friedman Runt 50, SC20H, and a Ceriatone 800. I preferred the Hot Mod V2. I normally kept the gain boost down. They work really well, and worth it.
If the cab is 8 ohms, plugging it into the 16 Ohm jack on the amp is not a good idea. Clean the 8 Ohm jack on the head. Sounds like it might need cleaning, or wiring issue. Doesn't it have 2 x 8 and 1 x 16 jacks on the amp?
Sounds like the input jack on the cab. Not sure if it's got different jacks or a switch. If there's a switch, spray it with Deoxit and switch it back and forth a few times. Clean the jacks too.
I feel your pain. I have a job, but I fucking hate it. I took a pay cut because I was courted to work for this company. I get way more time off, which was appealing, (16hrs personal, 16hrs floating holiday, 40hrs vacation, and 40hrs sick pay, which for all intents and purposes is generous these...
Yikes.. If I didn't hate top-mount Floyd's, I'd be all over it. I can't get the action low enough, or I'd have one..
Are these pickups adjustable, or are they locked in where they are? Damn this is a great deal.. I'm very tempted. In Florida too, so shipping would be less...
Where are they...
V2 is one of the best of the Friedman line, IMO, for tight, aggressive Marshall roar. I boosted mine with an SD-1, or a Zakk Wylde OD. It kills for thrash metal. V2 is a whole different animal than V1. More gain, more aggressive, more traditional Marshall. More high mid focused, brighter, and...
This. Who gives a fuck. I'm so done with all things EVH, Hagar, and the drama. I just don't give a fuck about it. I didn't care in the 90's, and still don't.
