  1. I have noticed that my SR15 has a "maximum dB", which surprised me for instance if I put my Gain on 10 then gradually increase the Volume the dB increases until I reach about 7 on the volume then flattens out, by contrast, if I set the Gain at 1.5 the amp will reach the same maximum dB as I approach 10 on the Volume. The point being is the maximum dB the amp will produce is about the same, whether you are going for clean or driven.. Anyway the SR15 puts out quite a bit of sound in its stock configuration.
  2. My SR15’s are krank’in with no problems, the tubes are still sounding good, the Celestions are solid and with the gain on about 1.5 I can turn the volume control to a very respectable level and still have some headroom. I have never really had to use both of my amps to be loud enough even out doors. There are a lot of new right-ups on these amps on YouTube, it seems that the people who actually try these versatile little amps early like them.
  3. I will miss him I enjoyed his posts and comments…
  4. Something happened when I pulled out my swamp ash tele from my previous post, I was going to work on it but I got sick right after. Wonder if it had some covid in it.. This last bought kicked my assss pretty good. Anyway I re-did the wiring on this one below and its functioning properly again.
  5. I agree, its an excellent playing guitar, it went into the closet because its a little on the heavy side.
  6. Thinking of getting this one out of my closet and blowing the dust off.
  7. This was one of my favorite rigs, I did go through several Ampeg guitar amps. I really like my pegboard pedalboard, I keep adding of updating the pedals, oh it has a rubberized back on it
  8. At present nothing worth posting, we perform every weekend in our remote neighborhood which our friends in the area like to come and enjoy. We mess with a lot of other groups material as well, Beatles vocals in the past were always difficult to present, they may have been the first boy band but wrote and played their instrumentation.
  9. I love playing Beatles songs and jacking them up a bit, partly because my group has a really really good singer. When people hear her, they cut her a lot slack because her vocal interpretations are so pleasing. For me just about anything to the accompaniment can be done if the voice is exceptional.
  10. The “Blues Hawk” should be re-introduced with real Gibson P-90’s in place of the anemic stock Gibson Blues-90s, the Epiphone version “Blueshawk” sounds way better with its basic P-90s in it.
  11. I just got an acoustic guitar bass, it is a 30” short scale with a single cutaway and of course built in pickup. I fell in love playing it in a store had to bring it home. It is so much fun, it seems to always be right next to me where ever I sit, I can’t stop playing it and it sounds so good unplugged. Also it sounds great through an amp, but most of the time I just play it unplugged. Great bass for practicing. This is the same model I got, not very expensive either.
  12. So many rigs and so little time. Do it now the clocks ticking. Tick tick tick Tick tick tick
  13. An unusual Epi 335 markedly the clipped ear headstock instead of the larger Epiphone style normally used on archtops. Because of this it could be an early Korean or even Japan build which frequently did not have SN's imprinted on them, or SN's on a stick-on label that could fall off. Not a lot of documentation on models like this, but could be worth considerably more than the auction price. Could even be a Czech build. Inspecting the markings on the electronics could tell more.
  14. I had mine shipped in its Epiphone 339/Casino Coupe case from the Music Zoo. My 339 uses the same Rounded C 24.75" Scale neck as the 335, which is killer and very well balanced. I did do a few minor mods to mine.
  15. The Epiphone ES-335 Traditional Pro in Ebony or any color looks really good to me specially with the new Inspired by Gibson design including the new style headstock. I love my IBG 2020 Epiphone ES-339.
