Re: Electrolytic capacitors - a perspective
Yeah, I look at 20 year old caps as something to keep an eye on. Once they hit 30 years, maybe not a bad idea to start replacing, and look at some of the resistors, too. I have found that it's not a massive difference when replacing working filter caps with direct replacements, unless they were uppe...

Re: New Boss IR-2 Amp & Cabinet
If one popped up for under my price, I'd snag it. It's like the BB1X, when it came out almost 10 years ago, they were around $160ish new. I liked it, but decided to wait. About 3 months later, one popped up used on ebay for $65 shipped. I jumped on that. Very happy with it. For years, they were rare...

Re: New Boss IR-2 Amp & Cabinet
Well... Going on nearly 3 months waiting for my IR2 to arrive! Seemingly, BOSS is inbetween production runs, as many places don't have them, and they are popping up used for nearly new prices. I'm patient, been looking forward to this, and still have my two other IR 'amp' rigs in the meantime, thou...

Re: Let's see those pedalboards!
...and this is how I'm currently using the bargain BCB6/PSM5 I got a few weeks ago. The "need a boost or some dirt?" board. The SD1 is my B50 version. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-0bRNyLnJL0pZOju37gIGvAJPjGm5zan3rARPapS3bn3vaUPlnCPlFwGg5OpFQeknUnDnu4gHHWpfyYq5WwzmNg?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium...

Re: Let's see those pedalboards!
Well I change months ago : only synthesizers, no effects... except the first SYB-3 is set for a fuzz or an octave. The second one is a "space" sound and the SYB-5 is for drone with LFO sound. Ha! Like minds... This is my 'add some synth bass' board. Also, 'what to do with this extra TU2?' board. ht...

Re: Let's see those pedalboards!
That's a killer Charvel! I had a 89 Cobalt Blue Model 4 back then, it was like yours, but pre-toothpaste logo, had a bolt neck, 3 mini toggles vs blade switch and the original Guitar headstock logo (the Model 6, like yours, had the set neck). Same J200 stacked 'singles' and J50BC humbucker with JE12...

Re: Notaklon kit anyone?
All is well again. JHS did a warranty repair on the pedal, it needed a new charge pump. 10 day turnaround from when I dropped it off to the day it arrived on my porch. Works and sounds great, and didn't cost me anything but a trip to the FedEx drop-off at my usual grocery store. It was a bummer to h...

Re: Switch pop
Is it true bypass? Some of those pop more than Orville Redenbacher.
