Sup folks,
After discussing with Kyle, wich is a member here, about his module modification in the MTS thread, I decided to give it a try and send my almost unused Ultra XL to get a complete makeover. Basically, he modified the base circuit a little and added three extra three position switch, wich mean a total of 27 combinations added. Had the time a little yesterday to give it a quick try, so far I'm satisfied, I'll try to use it as my "Thrash Rythm channel" and keep my 1086 as my "Sludge Rythm channel". The switch on it change the sound quite a lot, especially the mid one (I don't ear a lot of difference with the low switch, but that might be caused by my muddy cab lol). I'll have to fuck around with those a lot to get used to it ahaha
I found the package between my front doors, at a freezing -20°C (-4°F). Not really good for the tubes, eh... stupid Canada Post
So, enough talking, here comes the pictures. No clip, I tried to video record using my little camera, but it was too loud and it sounds like shit, maybe I'll be able to post some later on.
The original un-modified Ultra XL
Package, knife and a module
Here it is! Custom faceplate with my band's mascott and "Troll" instead of "Gain". That way, I'll be able to add or remove some troll in my sound![Metal :metal: :metal:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/hookem.gif)
Picture of my jamming place. Used to have more amps than that (lost a couple of bandmates...) On the left, my lead's guitarist amp (Peavey 3120), on the right my amp (Randall RM100). Cabs are a 6505 on the left and a Triple XXX on the right, but both have the same speakers (2x 6505 & 2x Triple XXX).
Amp from a closer view with the last setting I've used. Mids joke aren't allowed here. Slipknot jokes are welcome, though
And thats it for today, cheers!
