Re: Stupid Marshall Amp/Speaker Impedance Question

This might be something worth looking into.
I have found many amps have all 3 taps on the transformer, but only 2 connected to speaker jacks.
This could be a simple wire swap to get the 4 ohm load you desire..?

Re: New BOSS pedals!

I have an October 2010 GE7 with the Monte Allums Plus Mod coming! Pedal is excellent condition, the mod done very well. Best part, the modified pedal was $6 more than just getting the mod kit shipped to me. Figured the $6 was well spent and my MIJ GE7 can stay stock!

Re: Stupid Marshall Amp/Speaker Impedance Question

Your amp has 2 or 3 speaker jacks? My DSL50 has 3: a single 16 ohm jack and a pair that services either a total load of 8 or 4 ohms, depending on the setting of the switch. * as you are already aware, two 8 ohm cabs in parallel is 4 ohms, so set the switch to 4 ohms, plug into those two jacks and ro...

Re: New Non-BOSS Pedals

Picked up an MXR M87 Bass Compressor, it was like new and a really good deal, so why not? I have a 90s era Trace Elliot SMX Dual Compressor (on the big bass board) and a LM2B (on the small bass board), but figured it wouldn't hurt to have a 'modern' bass comp that's not boarded. So far, it's really...

Re: BOSS pedal oddities

That's cool, nice to see that the knob locations didn't clash. Love seeing transitional pieces. I have an earlier BF2 (1982ish IIRC) and had a later Japanese one (1989ish). The paint jobs were clearly different, the earlier one looked to have brush strokes vs the much smoother, sprayed look of the l...

Re: Fender blackface Vibrolux

What a nice find!
The VR is a cool amp, more headroom than the Deluxe Reverb, but not quite as big as the Twin.

Re: New amp day!

It's a cool head. I used to have one. Wasn't playing it much, so a bandmate bought it, he uses it often. The Micro Dark came out a couple years later, I like the voicing of the Micro Terror more. The Micro Dark has an effects loop and a cab sim for the headphone jack (which I can't remember if the M...

Re: Huh?! BOSS HF-2 and BF-2B are the same??

I just tested both the properly adjusted BF-2B and one of the HF-2 pedals side by side. Overall I can only hear subtle differences, but that's simply due to the fact that the BF-2B is tuned a half-tone below the HF-2 now. In certain Manual and Depth settings I can achieve the same flanging sound. W...

Sorry about the wait!
I sent the files to your email. Let me know if you got them and if they sound good enough. I can easily redo them if needed.
