I have an intermittent problem with my amp and would appreciate thoughts on what might be causing it. I played for around 3 hours at the weekend and on at least 4 separate times a loud "popping" sound occurred. This was similar to the sound heard as if a lead had been disconnected from the amp or a ...
I used to have an Egnater Tweaker 40 head but struggled to get a good sound from it. I didn't keep it long and sold it to help fund my Andertons CSJTM145.
I've got both a DGT and an LP and have similar views on them as you. The DGT is a recent addition and I'm very impressed with its versatility as it can cover more bases than the LP, especially with both full humbucker and authentic split coil tones on tap. Of the 2 I still play the LP most but they'...
The dealer has replaced the missing A string. I've sent an email to GHS also, just to make them aware of the problem. I'm not expecting anything from them, but you never know. Al - I presume you were referring to the Gibson event at Peach Guitars in Colchester? I was thinking of going as my 1990 LP ...
Slightly off topic, but I fitted a new set of strings to my LP yesterday. I blindly opened a pack of 9-46 GHS Boomers and didn't notice that it contained 2 low E strings, but no A (36). It wasn't until I started to fit the A string that I realised. The pack was sealed, so obviously a mistake when th...
For as long as I can remember I've used D'Addario XLs (usually 10s) but decided to give GHS Boomers a try on the last string change for my Les Paul R9. I played the LP for the first time since the change at the weekend and during a 3 hour playing period the strings stayed in tune the whole time. Ver...
I've had a look at the Roulette in my local store. They had one each of the combo and head + cab in AFD style silver. I picked up a Marshall flyer which states that there are 100 each of the combos and 50 each of the stacks. These are cosmetic changes only - disappointingly the low power switch is s...
Coverdale should realise that he just can't cut it singing in this style any more. I reckon he should take a trip down the Paul Rodgers route and try a more soulful blues-rock approach, maybe renewing his partnership with Bernie Marsden from the first version of Whitesnake. Bernie's album "Shine" fr...
