Just curious if you can change any of the channels on a 3 ch recto with the old 1/4" cable style footswitch?

I recently picked up a Boss gt 10 to replace my old gt 3, and I have found the functionality on this thing to be outstanding. I was getting some bad popping when switching to my Orange clean running direct, and was chewing on ideas to get both distortion channels AND still have a clean channel...

Thinking about using an alternate clean amp for my 2 channel for 2 reasons.. 1) i like orange to modern high gain, and red 2) I dont like the massive POP i get when switching into clean. So i thought maybe i could buy a used head that would just be used for cleans for cheap.. Any suggestions...

So i noticed tonight that for some reason, orange to modern is actually louder than red modern, settings being the same.. 9 oclock orange (to modern) = 10 oclock red.... Edit. the contrast comes more at 10 oclock orange where i have to be at a solid 11:00 red or so to match that volume. The...

Wanting to see if any of my new jj's are better than others for certain slots... ie high gain, any way to test them with a multimeter? Hows about putting stickers on them to know whats what?

So my local mesa tech says he prefers not to clean pots unles they are bad, but i know i have heard many recommend it as general maintenece. He says the cleaner breaks down the original grease in the Pot, and causes them to loose their natural drag. I saw the deoxit fader lube is supposed to...

Have a Crate DX212 good shape non-smoker. I'd like to get $200 for it... but make an offer. Shippping arrangements would depend on offer.

Amplified parts has a preamp tube chart where they show tung sol's as very quiet, and also high gain. True?: http://www.amplifiedparts.com/tech_corner/12ax7_comparison_of_current_made_tubes I am playing through a 2 channel Triple 97' (Rev G?) new tubes: JJ 6L6 JJ 12ax7

So it seems i have to crank the gain all the way up to get any saturation, anything between 12-3 oclock on the gain is flubby... normal? same on both channels. jj12ax7 preamps (Not high gain) jj6l6 power tubes all new..

So i just put in a full new set of JJ tubes, and am still noticing a change in tone as i play. It's either a sudden drop in high end, or it is starting out thin.. sometimes it does it shortly after i start playing, it also will switch to sounding thin after playing for a while. Had mesa tubes...

So just retubed, and forgot to switch the bias, quickly shut it of, I think it was still in standby... did i do any harm?

Anyone use the metal preamp tube sheilds in their 2 channels? If so will just any work? looks like the socket is smaller than the tube, not sure whow they would go on..

So is a sudden tone change, a major jump in high end, tube related? If so, power tube or preamp tube related. My 2 channel triple has el34 442's and i was unknowingly running it in diode mode at high volumes..

So i have a 2 channel triple rect. is it still under warranty for anything? do i need to concern myself with what tubes i get? ie mesa tubes?

I'm sure there are many opinions. Looking for a basic inexpensive re-tube. Amplified parts has inexpensive set of JJ's for trpile rec for like 190. I have looked at eurotubes, and dougs tubes... Thoughts? I have a 2 channel and play metal in low tunings (in the b,a#,a, g# range) Thanks!

Hey guys, I have a few questions. 1) The 2 channel manual doesn't specify which pre amp tubes effect which channels, it only labels them in stages. Anybody know what tubes effect what? Not identical to the 3 channel is it? 2) I have noticed the the clean setting when "style select" is in...
