I run my VH4 @ 11 - 11:30 with a Diezel 2X12 rear load w/V30's. Been doing that about 4 hours a week for a few years with no issues. Never felt the need to go past there. Ch volumes almost always stay at noon.

Thanks man, I appreciate it! As to the 58, lets see, I think I replaced virtually everything in the 58. Its got RS Guitarworks innards....Duncan Custom (SH-5) in the bridge and I believe its got a Wolfetone something or other in the neck. Finally its got Kluson tuners on it. The stock...

Hello all, been a little bit since Ive posted here..............especially since the VH4 is pretty much built like a tank so I have no technical problems, but I just dropped by to post our new record. Full stream can be found here: http://rintrahband.bandcamp.com/album/salt-of-the-earth The...

Thanks I'll give that a shot tonight.

Hey, I have a intermittent fuzzy/scratchy kind of sound which I can hear on all channels. Like, I said, it comes and goes and is louder dependent on the gain of the channel. Also, there is this really wierd high frequency ringing which comes and goes as well. How to proceed?

Well.....aren't they thoughtful. :D

This would be a very bad idea noob. :D Just kidding, everyone's been there dude. The advice in this thread is spot on. I just wanted to clarify a couple of things. I would go guitar -> wah -> VH4 -> Parallel or Serial Loop to the delay As was said before, only use the parallel loop if you...

I believe they were recommended, but I use the Duncan Custom in my LP 58 Reissue -> VH4. Thats the Custom, not the Custom Custom. https://www.seymourduncan.com/products/e ... ncan_cust/ I put a boutique pickup in for a while by Wolftone, but in the end, for my style my guitar and the amp I...

So, for my benefit would someone care to explain where the ground loop was? Here is the chain again: Power supply -> Delay -> front end of VH4 -> VH4 plugged into wall When I lifted the ground between the pedal and the amp, why didnt that break the ground loop? Or perhaps its just a shitty...

Hey Peter, Slyvren needs a raise around this joint. I found a wall wart class 2 transformer supply laying around the house which matches the polarity of the pedal. When using this supply the signal is back to its pristine Diezel quietness! Awesome job and thanks everyone for helping, this...

Can't do that because I sing when I play and to reduce tapdancing I need to run a pedal switching unit(the Musicomlab). That unit needs to include a fuzz which needs to run before the preamp from what I understand.

The pedal is dead quiet in the channel insert running long cables.

The pedal is dead quiet in serial and parallel effects loop, are the channel inserts different, Ill try it and see what happens.

Heres the deal, I still get noise with the highest quality cable I own, an Evidence Audio Lyric 10 footer. The short cable I experimented with is a 4 inch Canare patch cable vs. the 10 foot Evidence Audio. Both extremely high quality cables. The noise between the two is exactly the same...

Might have a breakthrough. For some reason I thought about comparing an extremely short cable to about a 15 footer and the difference in the noise level is staggering. Much much louder with the long cable. Surely thats got to point to something.

Alright, so I straight up snipped the copper sleeve solder point on both sides of an audio cable and the sound went from a buzzing to a much louder, outright hum. Does that tell us anything? Also, I found this description of a ground loop in a document by Ebtech. "Going up the AC power cord...

I thought I would bump this for all the noobs :D

I completely understand. I always thought it was a shame that Peter had to field so many questions about problems where the source was simply bad tubes. At the same time, the issue that you bring up I think is just something inherent in a technical troubleshooting forum also serving as a form...

I just want to make it clear that I love my amp and have for 4 years. Im asked about it constantly after gigs and always speak highly of it. That being said, this forum has always served as a place I can come and ask questions about various aspects of my rig which is why Im here. Im not here...

I specifically said in this thread that the delay in front of the amp is purely for test purposes and that my normal chain includes the delay in the parallel loop.
