I'm late to the show, but count me a fan. The sound is very modern and it's not the sound I personally strive for but it is an outstanding sound. I am not familiar with Sierra laps, and I think I mi ...

Nicely played, in that classic style I love best. Thanks for posting it.

However, I play through old Fender amps exclusively. They sound even better. Maybe it's because that's the sound I grew up with.

There is one now, I think.

I have been using it for the past several weeks. I got it to replace an original Strobo Stomp that died. Well, it started acting in funny ways.

Behringer is proof of the saying "you get what ...

What does this guitar weigh?

Thanks.

Here is a picture of one I used to own. Email me if you'd like more pictures.

I go back to my amp "rule" - use the *smallest*, lowest-powered amp you can for the venue you're playing in, and turn it up. You'll get tone that's far superior than those players who sti ...

My new Rick Johnson cab in the hands of UPS now! I can't wait. It's a 1x15 and I've got a new Weber Neomag 15 for it. I'm excited to be trying out Ted's brand new take on a JBL. When I get it brok ...

I was thinking about putting one as a 15" experiment in my Hot Rod Deville 4x10 Fender.

If the aluminum dust cap really puts the zing on the tone, it might could work.

Weber now has 15" neo at 4 ohms???

I am getting a 15" Neomag at 8 ohms. I don't know if he has a 4 ohm speaker of that type.

Al

Thanks, everyone. I have located one. I am also getting one of Ted Weber's Neomag speakers for comparison. They are supposed to be JBL clones. I'm still waiting on my cabinet so I don't have any r ...

I never found a 5751 to be especially "bright". It does have a bit more high-fidelity response, which I suppose might push that upper-midrange and treble honk in the JBL a bit harder.

Al, I'd be curious why the 5751's didn't work but a JBL did. I've never found an overly-bright 5751 - which one did you try (I understand the 12AT7 and 12AU7 results - and still suggest a 12AY7 is ...

I have never liked the sound of a 5751, 12AT7 or 12AU7 (never tried the 12AY7) in V1 or V2 of a Deluxe Reverb. The 5751s I've tried have been very bright-sounding, the 12AT7s sound thin, the 12AU7s s ...
