It is my opinion this is why many professional guitarists use multiple amps & switching systems as I could never get everything out of one amp so I built/organized my own rig since my teens thinking outside of the box. There are many ways to skin this cat. David

Thank you brother Dan. I hope you are well. Looking forward to some tracks coming out of your studio. David

Both are fine amps but do not Inspire me to play as well as perhaps even a stock Marshall with a SD-1 in front of it which adds hiss and robs the user of low end. I seriously thought about the JVM when they first came out but stayed with my old reliable Marshall & pedal. I did order a 100 watt...

Thank you Riffs'. It will take some time as I have been spending too much time modifying amps instead of playing the last 5-6+ years so it has taken a toll as well. I am approaching 50 years on wringing the neck so I am throwing myself a couple curve balls. Thanks so much for the well wishes my...

Thank you for the great words! I just happened to be reading through and found this thread. IMO any competent tech should be able to deliver. I find most of it is in the hands. When you get inside a non master Marshall plexi circuit or a master volume Marshall JMP/JCM 800 circuit it is all...

Thank you Shea. I thought since my hand is recovering (I hope) I might as well throw in an additional factor with rehab. It is the first Les Paul I have owned in 49 years of playing that withstands most of my abuse. Not nearly as magnificent as the custom but I do love the 60s slim taper neck...

Thank you Controlled_Voltage. I appreciate that you took time to listen and post. Much respect. David Hopkins

Yes I had the sniffles lol. But seriously I had surgery on my right hand in October. It is rough trying to pull it together. Kind of like trying to drive straight with loose tie rods. Modded Marshall Hopkins DVL-SOLOIST - Pandora Line. High Gain ♫ Of course the volume difference can be set by...

There are many ways to skin a cat but I thought using a relay to access a second Master Volume for Solo's silently at the speed of light is a great option to have. David Hopkins...♫ hZeIEc_d9I4

I set up a Poll to see how many would prefer a foot switchable Solo Boost to Simple Clean Channel. The Solo Boost was undeniably the choice. Here is a short video of the first EVL-50 I built. It has a Metropoulos Zero Loss Effects Loop in addition to a second Master Volume for Solo work...

I have been working on a new line of all valve analog high gain circuits. However I continued to have what appeared to be a low frequency 120 cycle oscillation. I interfaced preamps with power amps of many heads to deduce the culprit. I finally thought well perhaps the grounding in that part...
