I need to get pics of my other amps. The Gibby is seeing the most use.

02-17-2010, 12:09 AM
Probably only keepin the Ibby bass, the EUB, blue Tele, Gretsch, and black acoustic. The pink bass is gone and the blue acoustic is the one the black acoustic is replacing because the blue one was broken.

Jukebox, what's the deal with the Fender mandolin? Is that stock or a custom job? I don't think I've ever seen the hockey stick headstock on a mando. Maybe a few more photos?

OK, I can't take pictures of my other amps right now, but this is what they are:
90s Fender Princeton Chorus:
http://www.musicgearreview.com/reviews/Images/fender-princeton-chorus-amp.gif
There are many different versions of the PC. Some have the red knobs, but I never liked them, unless they were the 100 watt (50 per side) red knob version. There was also a model with DSP that I thought was crap, but to each their own.
This is a MusicMan HD150 head much like mine:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b78/davemeissner2002/newampshots004.jpg
I *think* mine is a 79 model. The two different channels are voiced very differently and the "Bright," and "deep" switches are really handy. They have a solid state pre and 4-6L6 tube power section. If you play one of these types of amps, you will learn a lot about how power tubes are responsible for the "warmth" that people often associate with tubes. This thing can get painfully loud, although it's only rated at 150 watts. Wish it had reverb.
Don't laugh, but, if I'm using it for guitar, I usually use a Behringer 412 cab. If I use it for bass, I use a Carvin 410. Right now, it's actually being used as a slave amp for one of our monitor mixes since that power amp went out on me.
The head that I usually use for bass is a Peavey Tour 450.

Behringer cab for the win. Let people laugh. I used to, too, until I saw a guy using one with a Marshall head. He offered to sell me that Marshall cab for cheap because he said that the Behringer was so much better. (I should have done it.)
Major envy on the MusicMan! I've always wanted an original MusicMan amp.
I had an '89 or '90 Fender Princeton Chorus. I think that it was actully 120 watts. Red knob version. The best chorus effect I've ever heard. Man, I miss that amp. :(

02-17-2010, 11:50 PM
Yeah, that's right, they were 120 watts. Loud buggers! I couldn't remember who it was I knew who had a PC.

Nice gear Monte! Has any of you guys have any expirience with Benz Bass amps? I know RJ has but any of you others?
unbridled

Thanks, Mike,
The Genz Benz heads are getting to be the standard for backline gear anymore. I have only played through one of their 12" single speakers, but I've played the Shuttle series heads a couple times. They are tiny, but put out a lot of sound. I've found them to be really clear, as well. They don't color the tone much at all and allow the sound of your bass to come through well. I like a little bit of warmth to come from the head and color the tone a bit and found the GB heads almost "sterile" sounding. I bet if I messed with them and played them more than a couple hours at a time, I'd get a good warm tone out of them. They sure are powerful and light!
Jukebox
02-18-2010, 03:30 PM
Hmmm, that's something to think about down the road.I know that RJ likes the one that he has, I just need to start playing out more before I get any new gear. I kinda given up on my lead singer, partying is more important.

Well, here's my setup of the day. (Subject to change tomorrow with the new gear.)
http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/af118/JebusFish/Setup2.jpg
Ibanez Iceman---->Ibanez LU20 tuner---->BOSS HM-2 (distortion)---->Behringer Hell Babe wah---->amp
I love having such a simple setup. Before I purged most of my pedals, it was:
Jaguar-->tuner-->distortion-->chorus-->tremelo/pan-->flanger-->fuzz-->wah-->amp (Sometimes in different combinations) Oh, and the Trem/pan went to another amp.

What kind of amp is the red one?
J i m m y
02-18-2010, 10:30 PM
That's the famous "Guitar Research" tube/solid state hybrid. I got it through craigslist a while back. I think that it was the Sam Ash house brand. Not bad but definitely not great. :rolleyes: I definitely need to upgrade to a decent amp but when I have the cash, I always blow it on guitars.
Anybody got a nice little practice amp they want to part with? http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/af118/JebusFish/Emoticons/Whistle.gif

I usually take friday afternoons off, today too, I spent it working on the strat. Installed shaller strap locks and gave her a good going over, Monte's 9s went back on...had very little trouble with the high e , but man, if she breaks during the show you are hosed, the white one will be a back up, and shes getting a good going over tomorrow too, only issue is the nut, the graphite nut is new and the slots are not deep enough, off will come the strings and I will try to take it off the bottom instead of trying to file the slots down...I did make the mistake of putting the same style tuners on her, but live and learn...! Evening all !
