Several recent efforts proposed to re-implement DNS as a peer-to-peer network with a flat structure that uses Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) to improve the system availability. ", "I thought that Shred mode is the same as the Red mode on the Triaxis which is just a treble boost on the output when, in fact, it's a clean boost on the input similar to a Tube Screamer but without the treble rolloff. It feels like there's a small nuclear explosion going off inside when ever you hit a power chord. ", "The BE/HBE has a fixed depth circuit that gives a lot of bass boost. The Pink Taco is a super versatile hand-wired, 20-watt, EL84-powered, single-channel fire breather that is capable of producing many styles of music, from blues to classic rock to heavy metal by merely adjusting the gain and master controls. The FAS Modern model is similar but biases the stage more towards the center. ", (Thordendal models) "The old Recto models weren't terribly accurate. 16 Ohm Celestion 12 G12M Creamback speaker, Controls: Reverb, presence, bass, middle, treble, volume. For the Plexis I have the damping set to flat with no resonance because that's how our vintage Plexis measure. As soon as I changed the model to split cathode it was spot on. Two channels, master volume, EL34 beast. The JB100 model is basically an OD2 with the entire OD circuit on the board with predefined filters made up of quality components without adjustment through fragile trimmers.

We earn a commission if you make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. ", "The JP amp has a fixed input gain control. ", "The Treble control in a Chieftain is actually a "Preamp Presence" control, similar to the Presence control in a Dual Rectifier in Modern mode. It's different than the pull shift on the other Mark amps. Everything on 7. I always raise it up a bit with that model. ", "Ruby Rocket is based on a Paul Ruby Rocket which is based on a TW Rocket but with some notable differences. An Express (at least mine) has a three-position switch: Off, 100 pF, 500 pF. The model is the Plexi version. QA on Friedman solder joints is pretty terrible from what I hear. In terms of amps, his early years with the band saw him use a Mesa Boogie Studio Preamp as his main stage amp though lately he has been known to use Laney L50H Lionhart Amp heads and. After 7 the treble increases rapidly. PBGas Well-known member May 18, 2021 #5 So the board thickness should be chosen for the design. That amp was one of the primary amps used in the G2 modeling development. To my ears (and my measurement equipment), the Axe-Fx models are spot-on. ", (Cygnus) "Carvin Legacy 100.

In 2017, Fridmann became the director for the Western New York Alumni Drum and Bugle Corps, where he plays the bass drum. We will also explore the top queries and questions that we have come across, during our research, concerning Friedman Amps before finishing with our final thoughts. ", "That "interference" is due to all the treble peaking used in the design. Steve Stevens and Jerry Cantrell turn the bass way up too. The AFS100 models are based on the actual amp but I think my version of #34 sounds more like AFD. Incidentally, anyone have any Twin Sister gut-shots? The cathode follower in an AC-30 doesn't even do all that much. ", "The design is weird as the negative feedback is taken off the speaker jack. So I took the old Recto models and made them "Thordendal" models. Its harmonically very rich and gives a clear definition of each chord.

Mu followers address some of the problems of cathode followers. ", (Boston/Rockman sound) "Plexi Jump. "There are quite a few differences between a 5F6-A and the reissue: Different tone stack (this is a big one). big caps filtering the B+. The preamp is virtually identical to a Twin Reverb but 6V6s break up earlier than 6L6s. As with the real amp everything now interacts. There are several reasons for this: The source impedance to the power amp is changed. ", "That model does the chugga-chugga better than Thomas the Tank Engine. He has been modding, repairing, building amps for nearly three decades and is responsible for the signature tones of some of the worlds best rock icons such as Steve Stevens and Eddie Van Halen. It's called a Rockerverb not a Metalverb. I would've made the capacitor around 1uF. Clean channel, hot rod Marshall channel, and a super hot rod Marshall channel. Even the greatest guitar in the world can sound pretty dire if played through a poor-quality amp. ", "A DR is numbered 1-10 so 3 on a DR is around 2.2 on the Axe-Fx. If you look at the schematics on the web the Maz-38 is shared cathode. Still has the original tubes. Most issues I have seen involved the shipping company punting these amps around like footballs. Hard amp to play though. ", "IMO, it's a very good amp. For the money, you could opt for amps with many more features but the simplicity of the Buxom Betty is perhaps the best thing about it. The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here . Both techniques being expensive. To derive from Classic American Clean to Classic British Crunch all you need to do is turn up the volume knob its that simple and the results are incredible. When mounted in a typical cab the resonance will be in the low 70s. Adjust LF Res, Freq and Q to get desired response. ", "JP (Green) has less gain (than USA Clean) and a much larger midrange potentiometer. Sound great though. It's the same idea as a bright cap on your guitar's volume knob. USE THE EQ.

Power would be unsuitable at bedroom volumes! This also smooths out that funky midrange. This amp is able to project phenomenal tones with a wealth of modern features to meet the demands of contemporary players. Close your eyes and adjust the tone controls with your ears. Remember this was BEFORE anyone had even degooped or documented a Bluesmaster style circuit and the only thing Shad was building was his post count at AmpGarage asking about Dumble circuits. The Rumble cab is unique in that it is ported and has two different types of speakers in it. The unique thing about a Dual Recto tone stack is that the Presence control is part of the tone stack. The information also partly applies to the previous generation of modelers (Axe-Fx II series and AX8).

On the real amp the controls do virtually nothing until you get near the ends of the range. ", "Another caveat when comparing amps: many times the knobs aren't "centered". Reduce this to around 2 kHz to start which is typical of amps like an SLO100, etc. ", "The very first models used a 5881, after that KT66 then EL34. JavaScript is disabled. This bypasses the EQ for more gain. My Runt 50 is far and above the best sounding amp I've ever owned. It's very loud though. Depending on the firmware, some models may not yet be available on every device. For a given voltage into the power amp a 6V6 has about 70% of the headroom compared to a 6L6. ", "The design is weird as the negative feedback is taken off the speaker jack. 3/4 Guitar vs Full Size: How to Choose the Right One? However, if you crank the Master you might find the extra brightness helps compensate for the power amp getting darker. ", "The BE has very light power supply filtering like old Plexis. I would say it's a very functional layout and fair job, but I miss some attention to detail I can see in other similar priced amps (Germino, Metropoulos).

I've debated changing the taper or adding a pad between the preamp and power amp but, in the end, I decided to keep things authentic. This particular model is based on Keith Urbans #1. Enter your email address to be first to hear about our new products and special offers. Was hearing a lot of ghost notes compared to the old algorithm (in the debug build I can select between algorithms with a hidden parameter) and figured that couldn't be right. Dumble then released the "Dumbleator" which is nothing more than a buffer and recovery in an external box. Most people assume knobs should be set somewhere around noon.
