    So last night... Typical Friday night gig... Rushing to set up for an 8PM start. I start to play and my amp starts to fart at peaks. Im thinking, Compressor? Bad speaker? Bad preamp tube (just changed it), Amp just giving out (wt800) bad cable? Wireless? Battery? Guitar jack .... on and on...

    Steady giging with my trusty WT800 rig has me questioning whether my favorite sound/tone is worth the backache. Its obviously heavy. I want to try a class d amp and stay as close to my current tone as I can. My go to cab is a 410 XST.(Its not light either, but sounds great and will handle the...

    Going from Taperwound to Roundwound

    Just bought a Fender Urge II. The setup (Or not) was awful. Looks like the previous owner just replaced the taperwounds with round wounds without setting it up. Obviously the E string was way to high. Since I have always played on round wounds I tried to set it up with a new set of round...
