I wanted a bicycle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But; They’ve gone the Orange route of using symbols instead of letters for knob descriptions: awful!! It's a cunning plan; You fiddle with the controls while playing, inadvertently fry your drivers in the process of finding out what the controls do. Then you have to buy a new cab. Which Barefaced will gladly sell you.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level, gain and some kind of EQ, as in a miriad of dirt pedals out there... Even I can manage that, and I'm having a doofus maximus week I'm pretty sure you will not damage anything by mistake by turning the wrong one, unless I missed the nuclear launch button Personally I had more trouble with the controls on a Mesa D800+, to be honest: dark knobs on a dark plate with a tiny white marker and small lettering labels above them. I replaced the knobs to aid visualisation, and as for the labels... I just learnt what they do. Much like in a lot of other amps and pedals: Ashdown RM series with their mirror-like face panels and black letters, great when I need to retouch my make up, terrible otherwise... and ultrabright leds on pedals that mean I can't make out where the controls are pointing at. I suspect we'd manage just fine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice! I don't own one but here at Pirate Studios they have a few and I always liked them, but in dim light with the mirror panel... yeah, not great. Last thing I want when trying to read which knob does what is seeing a guy that looks a lot like me staring right back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
