Its a overdrive with a boost. See now you can buy it for shitzengiggles.

Ok just screwed around with the 3-pro for about 15 min. It's not a bad amp. Not what I'm used to but I can get what I need out of it. It has enough volume , decent tone, and pretty easy to dial in. No where close to what I'm used to using but would make a solid back up or a decent amp to start with. Took the pedals fine and didn't puke. Saying all that I'll probably flip it once I get the V8 back up and running.

whats the story with the V8?

I still have to order those caps. I took all of them out except the two big ones. I have to grab some fuses too. If that doesn't fix it I have no idea. Shane said to check a couple of diodes too but they seem fine. I just have to order the stuff basically.

[demon666]

I have to order the caps for that SVT too.

[dunwichamps]

yes1!

[demon666]

Yeah I need some tube action. I can't dig this hybrid stuff. I supposedly get my Acoustic back too. The other bass player picked it up yesterday so at least I have that also. I still have to drop off the Traynor to get fixed.

This man speaks the truth. While I'm in a cut off, gym shorts and flip flops at Billows practice, he's wearing jeans, boots, and long sleeve flannel to our storage locker with no ventilation in 100 degree weather.

All my riffs are boring. All of them.

Make them more boring and play drone stuff.

I just realized I'm a derp and forgot to use quotes.

we're always our own worst critics I guess.

Found a download of Asbestosdeath - Dejection/Unclean, having a listen now...

The old school blackened deathrash band I play bass for will be releasing our CD/EP very soon - if anyone wants a copy they'll be for sale through Darklust Distro. Please go and like the page, our guitarist/vocalist's girlfriend got the page setup today...

I think our drummer would kill me.

So first practice with the 412 was ok at best. sounded great without any dirt pedals but it did not mesh well with the Bluebeard. too brittle in the highs and high mids. going to try to mess around a bit more with my settings next time. one thing is for sure though, it is freaking loud! quite a bit louder than the 810. i had to dial the volume well back on the GT200.

Did not really play with the plexi-drive or tone hammer since the cab was so different than what i am used to, so nothing to report there yet.

That's exactly my thoughts. But laz has me thinking of selling it to get a terror 1k. Mines been a perfect stand by for a while now. I will confess though, that I've used it at gigs I knew would have a sketchy power situation especially since it shares a rack case with a furman.

Who's you cab made by again? That sucks.

[bassboysam]

Mesa 412. no big deal. i'll give it a few more practices and then sell it if it doesnt work out. only problem is that the market for them is pretty small around here.

[Lazarus.Bird]

Mesa 215 or bust! And yeah wheeling and dealing cabs can be tough. That's why custom ordering one to exactly what you want can be great

Yeah it's an Ampeg which is different from an Orange. The Orange is a simple amp that does what it does well the Ampeg has more flexibility if you into that.

Sam does that cab have he player network thing on it? Try changing the cross over frequency on it an I'm sure you already did this but turn the tweeter off. I'm not sure if the network thing just effects the tweeter cross over or the speaker cross over.
