Nevermind those aren't the knobs I need
Is that the frigidaire nameplate you need?
Thats the best I could make of it. Seller just contacted me. Apparently I am now 2nd in line. I guess guy two talked money first and came up to my offer after I put it in. We will see if the other guy flakes tomorrow or not. Either way, I am not worried. But a sweet ass Frigidaire 60w tube amp would be pretty killer. Ice tonez.
Messing with this setup and watching broad city.
Tremolo and reverb are really good, but the footswitch isn't original so I need to rewire it for tremolo off, as it's cool for a really heavy bowing effect of sorts, but no one plays like that 100% of the time. Haven't dialed in a spectacular dirt tone yet with the fuzz/distortion/blend circuit on bass yet, as I switch between finger pads and nails so there's some volume and tone fluctuation that needs to be accounted for. It has so many knobs to dial in. Loud and clean though has a good dark growl.
(Ignore if you hate tapes.)
New stereo gear day!
This harkens back to our recent discussion of vintage stereo gear. My late 80s Nakamichi tape deck took a deuce and I'm having difficulty finding someone regional to check it out (I also have a silver Pioneer receiver and a Marantz TT on the fritz). I kept my eyes peeled for some more silver Pioneer and this hulking beauty turned up...it's bigger than my Yamaha receiver! Got it wired in and it's working flawlessly so far, great find!I was able to snipe it for a decent price.
Those VUs seal the deal for me. Now I really wanna get my silverface receiver fixed up...

Trying to reorganize my pedal board and realized I don't have enough cables to fit everything on lol.
how's the density hulk man? i've long toyed with the idea of getting a meatbox w/ dry/wet outs and using it solely through the PA subs.
Honestly its too much for the ol meatsmoke and dually. They cant handle the lows it puts out. I've had it tentatively up for sale for awhile because I don't play in venues with much in the way of pa support. That'd be the only way I could see it being used musically. This one has a wet and dry out as well as the expression pedal out.
No its just the humorously large channel switch for my meatsmoke. I'm planning on making a much smaller version of it soon to get that real estate back.
interesting. now I'm getting crazy ideas about a sub octave generating always-on low-passed DI box..
looking at another board idea. LS-2 owners - can it take two individual signals and blend it into one output?
My iTunes app keeps taking a shut and showing only "purchased" items and not my library of music I uploaded. Any thoughts? Going through Pandora & Bandcamp today.

I have an IE Deluxe Xerograph on the way but I really want to give the GR another go. I just didn't know enough about filters when I had the GR to really make good use of it.
