Well, I like for amps to at least have built in reverb. I used to actually have an Airline 8305-S (I think was the model number) amp...it had once channel with just volume, and another with volume, tone, and tremolo. I loved that amp, I have no fricken clue why I traded it in towards my roland guita...

I want something that has alot of features, sounds nice and full, and also doesn't make the house shake.

A non-valve alternative I was looking into were Tech 21 Trademark 30's....

I don't want to spend $800 on a head and cab here...trying to keep the cost around or under $450. Also, the orange has no reverb or trem.

looks cool but 60 watts tube is a little much for my bedroom

I have a silverface twin that's my main band workhorse, but for the bedroom right now I've got shite. Just a G-Dec and some cheap mark II amp I bought for $10. I need a good workhorse for recording and practice. I'm thinking tube's the way to go, as I never really seem satisfied with anything solid ...

What color is that Aug? looks like chrome blue or something from here....sorta different in every pic.

I don't know about that. The neck position usually needs to be less output as it is to match the bridge pickup. If the red is too hot for the gold, you could always lower it, or raise the neck pickup.

1 phaser is too many.

I had the same soldering iron related injury like 3 weeks ago. I thought it was unplugged and was seeing if it was still warm. Turned out I unplugged the wrong plug.

Phasers are pretty damn useless and usually suck alot of your tone away.

That's what real women need.

it's not lacking any meat

Get that digitech poster off your wall. Also ditch the jagmaster and buy another tele.

I just found this today....figured it might be of interest to some of you with '51's and other cheap mod projects. I didn't notice it last time I was there so I'm pretty sure this is brand new.

I really want a b-bender in my tele now.

BTW, just curious, was that my muff you used?

Do you play like the sound samples? Does anyone?

Do they think the only people who buy pickups are beginner new-age jazz players who do too many harmonics?

The sound samples are terrible. Nuff said. But someone could make any pickups sound bad with a sample by playing like that.

They have ones with solid covers.... It's one of those things that's new, so I want to try it to hear for myself. I'm not gonna trust a shit sounding clip. Neodynium magnets are very good in most other applications, it'd be interesting to hear how they sound in a guitar pickup. It might just be a gi...

It doesn't help that 90% of that sound demo are clean harmonics
