Its gonna be great to have in a stereo set up for larger gigs, but also a massive Brian May fan so gonna get a decent BM rig together for my own fun! 8)

What are the pedals on the bottom left and bottom right of your board?

Bottom left is a modified Marshall footswitch, bottom right is a JHS/Jen 70's fuzz. It needs attention though!

Nice one! I have a cheap effects unit called a Yamaha Magicstomp that has a brighton rock patch. Its great fun I bet the stereo amps is way better!

Is that a looper in the pic too?

Post by: Spitfire on February 17, 2009, 07:51:12 PM: i used to have an ac30/6tb... very nice :)

stereo effects for the win!! i want a pair of orange 4x12s to add to my stereo rig... the single stereo 4x12 has sweet tone, but i want more distance between the cabs.

Post by: HTH AMPS on February 17, 2009, 09:13:33 PM: I don't want to dampen your NAD, but get that amp checked out before gigging it - those Korg AC30s are renowned for blowing up. Get the bias checked (might need to tweak the cathode bias resistor - 68ohms is generally perfect and 82ohms used in the older AC30s gets it running cooler again with a gnarlier tone).

On the up side, when cranked they sound awesome - my first AC30 was like yours (a 30th Anniversary model) and was a br00tal amp when cranked with a Les Paul.

Korg AC30s

After spending a few mins searching, so many brands have owned the Vox name! i never knew that...
