    Pick grinding noise

    Ohms FAQ

    So if I wanted to get an overdriven sound from my amp could I run my head at 2 ohms into a 4ohm cab? and then just crank it as the cab would be getting half the wattage? Does that make sense or would I kill my amp?

    Ampeg help!!! urgent

    If you're going to get a VR prepare to baby it. I own one and have talked to a few touring musicians who own them about how the VR's are big babies. Dont get me wrong they sound like a million bucks but they can be trouble some. I was at a gig once, did sound check everything was fine ten...
