    Can i run just 2 Kt77's in a Dual Recto?

    If i only have one rectifier tube in, can i just run at 50 watts? I tried this with my 6l6's and worked fine. I just wanted to give a pair of KT77's a shot, though i rather not buy 4 of them and find out i don't like em!

    What product to clean the metal on the guitar?

    Something that won't take the shine or finish off. I have a PRS custom 22, the pickup covers in particular seem to get grimey and i can't get them back to the factory shine.

    Why do people leave unclipped strings while playing??

    Ok maybe i don't know the reason, could be missing something. Though from a pure visual standpoint nothing irks me more than when i see a band and the guitar player has a new set of strings on there that are not clipped. Seriously am i missing something? Does it stay in tune better? How long...

    WTT Dual Rectifier 3 Channel Solo/4x12 for Roadster

    Hey guys, i'm in the South Jersey/Philly/Delaware area to start. Willing to travel for an exchange and trade. I'm more inclined to do this in person if possible. I'm looking to downsize my 4x12 cab(It's the old smaller recto cab, its a slant). When i bought the cab there was the "oversized"...

    Retubing Dual Recto Preamp

    Hey guys quick question, i know its pretty much subjective but i want to retube the preamp of my Dual Recto. I changed the stock V1 to a Tung Sol reissue only, seemed to sound a bit better than the stock one. Anyway i'm running with a pair of El34's in my amp. I keep the effects loop off, so i...

    Is the Ts808 that much better than Ts9??

    I just got my first tubescreamer a Ts9 and it's really great. It added just a little something to my sound as soon as i plugged it in. I really can't imagine using a dirty channel without it. Anyway i didn't play through the Ts808 version, is it worth the extra 80 bucks for it? Honestly $169 was...

    So who else doesn't use "modern" on a Rectifier?

    I can't be the only one... When i bought the amp i just put it with a ton of gain on the red channel/modern and cranked it. Since then my tastes have changed, switched to el34's and a couple of pedals. I pretty much stay within raw for tight chord work and vintage for soloing. The clean channel...

    WTT: Recto Standard Slant 4x12 for Horizontal 2x12 Mesa + $$

    First off, i'm in the Philly area so i'd like to try to keep this local and be able to meet up and trade. I have no idea how i could ship a 120lb 4x12. The difference in price new between cabs is about $300. This is why i'm asking for a trade plus some Cash, NOT $300, but an offer below that...

    Changing from a 4x12 Recto to a 2x12

    Anyone do this could tell me what type of sound difference i'd get? I'm guessing less low end and you would have to crank the amp a little more for the same volume. Problem is my car is too small, i don't gig and i'm not in band right now. The 4x12 is just too hard to bring with me for a simple...

    The best book for a newer guitar player

    Ok well i'm not new per say to playing the guitar, but skill wise i guess i'm not very good, or close to how i want to be. I tried lessons but they are far to expensive and had a few bad teachers who thought that teaching me a couple licks from songs was helpful. Anyway i strum my way through...

    Changing to El34 in DR

    Hey guys, first post here. Long story short just got back into playing recently, my DR has been sitting there not getting much use. Anyway I was wondering what exactly switching to some type of EL34 tube would do to the tone. I'm running the DR(3 channel) with a mesa boogie recto 4x12 cab, the...
