    Using tube amp heads as power amps?

    Guitar -> Axe-Fx input Axe-Fx loop send -> 5150II input 5150II fx loop send -> Axe-Fx loop return Axe-Fx output -> 5150II fx loop return So would this mean that the head preamp, and the standalone preamp, would be switchable just by one footswitch? Ie, would turning axe-fx loop on cancel...

    Using tube amp heads as power amps?

    Well the thing is, if I was going to go a used power amp, I could go a used 6505 and save even MORE money. Whats the difference between the power amps in a head, and a stand-alone poweramp?

    Using tube amp heads as power amps?

    Hey guys I was looking around at a few different guitar pre-amps (Engl E530 in particular) and noticed that getting a dedicated rack-mount power amp was usually pretty expensive.

    Help For Death Metal

    Diminished scale? Hate eternal diminished scale? Whaaa-? Rutan uses a flat 5th chord shape a LOT, but he does play more than stacked minor thirds up the neck If something sounds atonal, it usually is. You can analise music as much as you want, you can aim to sound like other bands as much...

    ESP SC-207 issues

    I'd say new machine heads will fix the tuning stability issue, as for the 5th fret being sharp, id say its been put in a tiny bit too sharp or something. If this is the case, you should be able to get a new neck or new guitar on warranty (im not 100% sure on this since the pickup replacement may...

    Killing amp hum with NS2?

    are you reffering to the NS2s loop or the amps loop? i realise you can drive a preamp from the loop However the boss manual said to put the distorition effects in the Ns2s loop however i was thinking more along the lines of killing the preamps hum, then ill tackle the metalzone after that...

    6L6's vs EL34's

    Cheers guys, I was going to upgrade the tubes just because I figured its like the same thinking as pickups or speakers in a cab, stock is never as good as aftermarket and they make big differences to tone quality But as for tube screaming my amp, im definately gonna give that a try! Any tips...
