That looks like a whiny feedback factory...that body is clearly made of laminate which means its mostly glue with a cellulose finish...be careful! jobu

My first tube amp - should it be doing this?
In a little rowboat replied to Groo's topic in Solid State Technology
It does matter what pickups....however (in general) humbuckers tend to break earlier because they have a higher electrical ouput. jobu -

In a little rowboat replied to Groo's topic in Solid State Technology
For that amp and those tubes, yes... Blue and purple/red are the bad colors. jobu -
Telecasters: tell me everything
In a little rowboat replied to Groo's topic in Solid State Technology
The two-on bronze saddles do (to my ears) sound better, but they are by their design, very difficult to get exact intonation because you cannot adjust each string individually. You shoudn't have much of an issue with this however, though it is best to make sure you have a string tree for strings 1 and 2 (the break angle on the headstock is very important to pitch). Bronze saddles will, over time, wear down faster under the strings than chrome, again not a huge issue. jobu -
I was right up close...its not a Dano...it had some kind of red design or brand name on the top of headstock, which also looked bigger than the last Dano i saw...i didnt recognize it... Jobu

I saw a fella in the front row record the whole thing on some small video camera...i dont know what audio id expect...and you have to wonder if the guy'll share or not...but i guess theres hope... jobu

Not even sure I think theres even a problem to find a solution to...yeah there is collusion, but its not this huge conspiracy to screw fans, people get these seats...i never seem to have problems finding good tickets...there were several sets of good ticket availible on this board for face or best offer... If youre going to try to convince me that bigger fans with 'seniority' should have first rights to better seats, you won't...if your a fan youre going to do what it takes to get the seats you want, not fret and bitch about how you lost out on seats to someone else...$40 for ANY seat to see
-
Well glad we agree...absolutely... Wasnt trying to be a dick, just thought your solution sucked... jobu

Absolute snobbery...i dont have time or desire to operate within some fan club, that doesnt make me less of a fan and shouldnt impact my equal access to seats... The problem lies with Ticketmaster and their agreements with 3rd party agents, not ticket buying fans... Jobu
-
yea there was definately something wierd about some of the folks in the front/,middle...i stood thru the entire show, like every show i go to, I literally heard 2 fellas (obviously fans) telling people NOT to stand ('dont stand, this song isnt a 'standing song'...")...how snobby can you get? There were easily a dozen seats in the front not claimed by the concert's start until Jeff told people to fill in the empties ('those people are late...they know what tiime it starts...")...i know the band picked up on the lack of energy up there...worked for me i could see everything, a few pretty person

In a little rowboat replied to jimmyrow's topic in Got Extras?
dude if those were the ones i bought from your friend in front of the show...thanks!! Guess it was best offer...we had a ball... j -
First time I ve seen them...far exceeded my expectations...wow Special thanks to whoever sold me those two 3rd row center seats for $30, got me laid... Jeff pointed right at me with "side with you if you side with me..." pretty badass Crowd was great and good people as well thanks ya'll jobu

Little Rock, Important question please
In a little rowboat replied to petervasallo's topic in Just A Fan
wish i knew myself...my guess is opener at 8pm...it would be better if someone whos been to a show this tour could chime in jobu -
A second on that...ive only used it sparingly because i use Mac, but audacity will do what you want on PC jobu

thanks for the tips/link am anxious to try the JJ's ya'll should check out this site for reviews and deals ---> http://www.thetubestore.com i didnt know rubys were so unpredictable...when ive used then, theyve done the deal Svetlana s are made in St Petersberg Russia, Ive had great performance from Ei's before, but theyre made in the former yugoslavia and looks like theyve stopped making them... jobu
-
ha i know BWW... yea GTs are the cheapest option that fender (and others) has for stock tubes...wow wish i could an amp tech that would give me new tubes hehe rubys are great, ebay has a health suppy of NOS tube of various brands...and there is a huge difference as you have found... A seldom suggested acquisition...a tube tester is a really nice thing to have should you continue to use valve electronics I picked one up for around $30 on ebay...itll help verifiy matched sets and let you assess the quality of NOS tubes from odd sources...I have a fender 65 DRRI, the 6v6 power tubes

Jeff's Orange Guitar?
In a little rowboat replied to boredintheusa's topic in Solid State Technology
Perfect!! I assume we're all here cause we have Wilco in common...its shameful to scare new members off Im new this board, but a five year moderator on others. There will always be new folks, old questions, etc...thousand post board members get a little snobby and do divert discussions and flame folks incessantly. From what ive seen, those things are far worse on other boards. Im and bit unclear (after reading) about your board etiquette---how are you really going to dictate 'internet etiquette' cheers jobu -

overly resonant notes are not uncommon---this breed of fender amps are 'tuned' just as much as a guitar would be...plus the wooden baffle carries tone as well as the speaker which is mounted in it... again, the amp still sounds good, id be much less concerned by the smell...rock on! j
