i am interested to as to whats going to happen with steves amps.

new signature model?

if it was shown on tv at the time then i have it on video,but i dont have a vhs player to check

ive just booked my ticket for the london show

anyone know if steve might bring out an old multi coloured 7 string for this tour?

i have an evo bridge in the neck position in one of my guitars. imo its the best neck pickup for overdriven amp sounds,no mud just a lovely clear very hot neck pickup. the regular evo neck pup is a fatter/vintage type tone and i would say a better all round pup for clean and overdrive. i knew for ye...

i have a love/hate relationship with evolutions but in the right guitar in to the right amp they can sound great.for me they work best with a 250k volume pot ymmv. the gravity storm pups are my favourite at the moment,cant get a bad sound out of them.highly recommended(and ive owned a lot of dimarzi...

i would agree just buy used and sell if you dont like. ive had 2 jems a `89 floral and a 2008 7vw there both great guitars. to me neck profile is very important and the older the jem the more i like them.the older ones have a narrower thicker profile whereas the newer jems have really wide thin neck...

i`m sure someone on jemsite will have the answers for you.

i pre ordered my copy so should arrive sometime soon.

so regardless of what you do the amp stays on the clean channel? i would say there is a problem with either the channel change switch or the footswitch jack on the back. the other problem is perfectly normal. when on standby voltage is only applied the the heaters for the valves,there is no ht volta...

true.

i think they are very similar sounding amps.
the 100b has a less compressed/more open sound and i believe is similar the the ecstacy classic

so the second head's EQ is rendered completely obsolete? that would explain the weird settings. So where do the 3's come into it then? surely it must be the same situation but with different model heads right? so does that mean there's 4 feeds from the pedals in the loop? yes thats right,none of th...

the power amp section on the 2nd head is used for the stereo split,so you simply take the 2nd(normally r/h side)channel out of your fx processor or pedal if it it has stereo outs,into the fx loop return of the 2nd head.

thats great,glad you like the amp. imho the only downside of these amps is they dont play hi gain chords to well due to the high bass content.i always overcame this by backing of the volume pot on my guitar to get a cleaner crisper rhythm tone. nearly everyone ive seen sets there amps up like this o...

don't do it

total and utter rubbish,raising or lowering the signal through the fx loop will not ever damage an amp.many amps have fx send or fx return level knobs.

re the master volume,imho its just not needed,anything used in the fx loop with a volume control will do the same thing
