I will look for the tubes. How can I test a tube to know if its broken. Thanks, Marc

I own a Fusion 550 and I have problem with this amp. When I turned it on there a big "pop" and after there a kind of fuzz when I play bass. This "fuzz" disapeared after like 15-20 minutes of playing. I've check everything (basse, cable, cab, the ac outlet) and came to conclusion that the...

The Octron is my first choice but since it's not a dedicated bass octaver and the lack of bass sample make me hesitating. In the others hand, I've read a lot of good comments about this pedal. Does it worth the extra money over the mxr or the aguilar?

I'm in the market for an octaver. I never bought or use an octaver. After reading a lot of post I've coming to the conclusion that I need an analog octaver instead of a digital. For what I've read, I'm hesitating with three of them. Foxrox Octron 2 MXR BOD Aguilar Octamizer The...

Pic of the Valvedrive

Can someone tell me how to convert my pictures in a 640x480format. I can't upload my pic of the pedal.

In perfect condition and a really good tube overdrive. Must leave my pedalboard, I need money.:rollno:

Hi, I have for a long time an Ampeg V-6B head with the 215 cab. I've herit of this one, it was made in 1974. The head is in very good condition and the cab have the tolex tear off in a place but is accetable. All the parts are original except the 120v plug. How do you know if the...

The same for me. I think to have 'chewing fret' it's not only a matter of what kind of strings and the nature of the fret. You have to grind the frets with the strings. For this, you have to make a lot of bend or having a problem of 'frets buzz' when the string vibrate on the fret. It's not my...

Eventually it will be 2 x 212 or 2 x 410 but now I can only afford one cab. the 412 option it's not interesting for me because it's to heavy and to big. I don't want to move fridge anymore ;)

Are you serious? With all those people using Rotosound for about fifty years, it's make a lot of chewing frets! After a year it's not normal at all! Been a Rotosound lover, you make me afraid:hiding:

I was just thinking the opposite (steel). I love both but find the nickel softer to the fingers but not as bright in sound. Some of you talk about fret chewing (the steel one, I suppose), if it's true am really considering to find another brand of strings that I would like. Or maybe it's an...

I really hope it will rock my Ampeg 215 cab but this thing is very big, heavy and don't really fit in my Nissan Sentra:) and by the way the cab was made in 1974, so I don't think it will be an exagerate GAS to have a new cab!

I will receive in a couple of week a GK Fusion 550. For now, I have an Ampeg 215 cab to match with it. I want to buy a GK Neo cab to go with the Fusion. So I hesitate between the Neo 212 or the Neo 410. Same price, almost the same size and weight. The thing is that I have to buy blind. I have...

I've never seen such an horror:eek: With friend like, this you don't need enemies. Even my son who is 3 years old is more responsible than that ( I let him play with my stingray and my american P-bass without worries). I hope you will make it pay the price for this kind of stupidity, it's...
