zapp Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Haven't posted in the Forums for a while, pretty much since I swapped back to Guitar. But now there's a thread especially for the 'untouchables'......so here goes. I still have my Custom Bass made by the Forums very own Chopthebass.....now residing in the wilds of Canada. Guitar duties are covered by a Fender Custom Shop Strat and a Fender Road Worn Tele. The amp has recently been changed from a Fender DRRI to a Swart Space Tone Reverb. This thing is so unbelievably good its......well......unbelievable! Its a tone MONSTER. Only 5 watts but its class A single ended and it'll take a 6V6, 6L6 or an EL34 without rebiasing. Valve rectifier as well. The reverb is the deepest lushest cavernous (if you want it) reverb I've heard. If you get the chance to try one of these wonderful amps, take it. Pics?

KingBollock Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 On the floor there, there is a Laney Linebacker 100R. In the rack is my Boss GX-700 and the stereo power amp I play it through. Under the rack and under the cab with the Skull flag over it is the pair of PA cabs I run the power amp through. I also have the GX-700 hooked up to my PC for recording. You can just about make out the neck of my headless Flying V behind the Guitars in the rack. That's it for my Guitar stuff. I finally got around to turning the grill on my Peavey TX cab around so the tragedy of a flame paint job the previous owner did is no longer visible.

zapp Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Ooooooo Zematis......now there's a blast from the distant. What is the amp? Valve? Liking the metal front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzneck Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Yup, it's a valve amp with an engraved front, hand built as a prototype along with, as I understand it, two others. This one is the 30W and I believe the others were a 15W and a 5W (both valve amps) with different engraved patterns on the front. This 30W matches the Japanese Z custom MF that i also am lucky to own. Edited April 6, 2012 by Jazzneck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahpook Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) here's my guitar set-up. a 90s reissue fender jag and mid-80s squire tele, through a modest pedalboard (tuner > joyo ultimate drive > modded turbo rat > z-cat big reverb > boss dm-3 > ehx stereo memory man /hazarai), into a marshall 30w combo.

Bassnut62 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) [attachment=150896:IMG_0206.JPG]Here are my amps, you can just see a Fender Bassman 135 with 1x15 cab sneaking into pic - that gets used for bass or very loud guitar. Mostly I gig with the 1x12 MusicMan combo, sometimes with the Fender 1x15 underneath it. The amp I use most of all is the little '57 Fender Champ clone by Caiman Agnew (boutique amp maker in Dublin); it's perfect for home use and recording. The Blues junior is usually used for rehearsals as it's a lot lighter and quieter than the MusicMan. I am into the tonal ideas that came from the genius of Mr Leo Fender. The fact that he considered the amp to be part of the instrument and therefore built both says it all - nobody else really seems to have nailed that idea.

Angel Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) Main amp for the past year has been an H&K Tubemeister, but I'm gonna flog it now. Doesn't get switched on at home since I bought an Axe-fx. I'll probably get a cab and poweramp for it at some point. Main guitar is a Fender strat with Warmoth neck and Kinman pickups.

[/quote] I went to see Dweezil Zappa play last night in Nottingham and I reckon that Axe-fx was what he was using with a power amp and a couple of 2x12 cabs. He had a great sound and some top-drawer fx on hand; not sure if they were coming from the Axe-fx or a bunch of boutique-looking pedals he was using too.

Kiwi Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I gave up trying to take decent pictures. So here's my refurbished Chandler Custom Strat, Lexicon MPXG2 + R1 and Burman Pro501 combo. Last thing I need to do with the guitar is install a decent tremolo. The only one that does the job so far is the Stets trem but I don't like how it fussy and vintage it looks. A Wilkinson VS-100C would have been perfect but they aren't made any more. [attachment=125637:DSC08941.JPG] I'd include a pic of the Klein-clone but I haven't installed a control plate yet or resolved an issue fitting all the electronics in.

Ed_S Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 My nice and simple (and cheap!) rig, kept just in case I should ever find myself back on guitar duties in a band (looking less and less likely the longer I leave it, but never say never). For the time being, it lives at the studios for our rhythm guitarist to use at rehearsals because it's better than it sitting in a cupboard doing nothing! So yeah, Marshall MA50H and 1936. The MA series took a bit of stick for sounding duff, but I honestly think that was because people weren't getting them out of their bedrooms and opening them up. I'm yet to hear a straight-up 50+ watt valve guitar amp with no attenuation or fancy digital tricks sound as good at bedroom levels as it does when you let it breathe a bit. For good or for bad, this one certainly sounds like a Marshall to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftybassman392 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Here's mine. I've owned and gigged more amps & guitars over the years than I care to think about, but right now this does everything I need. The guitar is a recently acquired Rob Williams custom build (see the separate thread for more info), and the amp is a Cornford Hurricane (20 watts). Couple of Boss pedals (CH1 chorus, GE-7 graphic that doubles as a booster, and a DD-3 delay), and away we go.

Beer of the Bass Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Guzzibass, how do you find the Bigsby/3-saddle tele bridge combination on your bitsa tele? I've got a similar setup on my cheapy Axl, and it seems to retain the tele sound and feel well enough, but I find I need to keep the saddles well lubricated with graphite from a pencil to keep it in tune. The last guitar I had with a roller bridge was a wobbly, rattly nightmare and never actually rolled when using the vibrato, so I guess the tele bridge is a reasonable compromise.

leftybassman392 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Used to have a 175 (It was actually a Heritage 575 as it happens, but since it was made using the original Gibson jigs by former Gibson employees you'd have to say it was the next best thing). Straight into a Polytone Mini Brute IV. I did solo dinner/function jazz gigs with it. Lovely, lovely guitar. I sometimes wish I'd never sold it, but needs dictated at the time.
