I am considering a tube change in my fender SCXD. My questions are many. What do the letters at the end of the number mean? Can a GC go where a S came out of. Can a 12au7 or 12 at7 replace a 12ax7? I know to keep the same number but am I gonna blow up my amp if I use the wrong letters? Is...

I live and die by the ts-808. I have every ibanez screamer, I am a huge fan of that style of OD. I use a 1980 ts 808 right now. Before that it was the reissue, and before that the ts-9........The bad monkey is pretty good and can be had real cheap <$25. I have got some gas for the OCD, heard...

I also play righty even though I am lefty by nature. That has nothing to do with how I play. I started on electric when I was 12, quit quick when I couldn't learn randy rhoads parts in a couple weeks! A few years later i picked up an acoustic and pretty much all i played for about 18 years...

Biyang has a brick, found it on ebay for less than $70. Anyone heard or have any experience with it?

DVM, that is a bad a$$ dist pedal!

Here's my epi lp jr. I redid it myself, put a gfs mean 90 in it. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite axes. wish I could put a clip up but it has a tone all it's own. Lots o' fun!! last pic is what it looked like before I got to work on it.

Ok, I realize this thread has been done before, but seeing as I just added a keeley modded ds1 to my rig, I thought I'd ask again..... what's your favorite DISTORTION pedal? I would like to keep this focused on distortion and NOT overdrive pedals. The keeley mod in the ds1 is the bees knees...

My vintage ts-808. Cannnot live without it. Second, this week, is my ph-2. I love this pedal, been using it an awful lot lately.

I start learning new tunes on my acoustic, no matter whether they are folk, blues, punk, metal...etc. I usually try and learn the basic chords and rythym of the song, then as I get more comfortable with the structure, I try and make it my own. For example, I play a version of "Faith" that...

ROFLMFAO!!! "oh yeah, it's bad. They've started to harmonize!" Priceless!!

Only 3 problems with this guitar. 1. the wraparound bridge does not hold tune very well at first. The ball end of the string needs to be played and wiggled until it sets it the slot. 2. there is no intonation. I will probably buy a badass bridge for it to correct this problem. And, from...

nice looking axe! simple and elegant! love em that way!

+1, I have tried to fill the hole and put in a hardtail bridge but there was a buzz and tonekill I could not over come. Ended up taking it out and going back to stock but it was never the same. I gave that axe to my nephew. The next strat I got, I just screwed the claw screws down as tight as...

never mind.....I got it working. Turns out when you throw a Boss pedal against a wall in utter frustration, it instantly reverts back to factory condition! who knew?:dance

I have a boss cs-2. Just got it used, when I first got it everything worked fine, but after about a week, now the led won't light. I replaced the bulb and still nothing. The pedal still functions as it should with the exception of the led. Any help I can get on what to test on the board will...
