Music Gear Discussion

Dude, "buttcheeks" would be the best moniker ever. Who wouldn't want some gear with Buttcheeks down the side?

anyone not white, under 20 or above 30 and not male

Sounds like you have your target market then.

I know that if I was at a music shop and saw an amp called the "Buttcheeks Mark II" or the "Buttcheeks Mississippi Delta" or some shit, I'd buy that shit WITHOUT EVEN PLAYING IT FIRST!

I haven't tried any Lyles but Bobkats are sweet

I had never heard of the Super Tremolo, what other weird tube stuff did Marshall have back then?

[Shakey]

He has a point, though, with all the effort he's put into this it should have a title that commands respect.

Dr. Buttcheeks imo.

Okay so I spent some time with the one watt Blackheart and I like it alot better. First I went over to Soldano and messed around with a bunch of cabs. Some sound better than others with these really bizarre (retarded?) things that the guy from Heart had custom built sounding the sweetest. I didn't bother getting particulars because I have no money for cabinetry or speakers right now. Anyway I brought it back here and then started fiddling around swapping preamp tubes. Every tube I put in it sounded better than the stock one. It sounds pretty decent now and I'll probably fiddle around swapping power tubes (since both tubes are 12ax7's I have plenty to choose from) later today or maybe tomorrow.

Damn the guys at Soldano are nice. They'll take time out for any question and they give me the run of the place with full acces to any tools I might need. It's been really cool having them in the neighborhood.

I'm really starting to hate that Epiphone. It may have the million dollar pickups but god what a turd of a guitar. Myk, I took some humbucker/P94 comparative video but it didn't convey much so I'll try again soon.

*edit* Spent a couple hours fiddling with the power tube on the 1 watt and funnily enough, it was the preamp tube I just pulled out of there that ended up sounding the best in that spot. This is not a half bad little amp especially at the price.

I can't wait to hear josh's new Buttcheeks gear.

I'd so buy a Buttcheeks drum throne.
