They both look awesome, Laney looks a bit complicated though :P Cant wait to get my GH50L next month :D

I'm guessing they are similar.. so. Does the VH100R need a bit of cranking to get a decent tone or is it not too bad with the master quite low?

It is quite dawnting when you first get it, but after a bit of messing about it's pretty easy.

With the volume below 1, the tone is cr@p, sounds like some ones holding a blanket over it. But crank to just a little bit over one and it sounds fine and it's still ok for bedroom levels though still shakes the floors  :shock:

sounds even better when really cranked though, like most valve amps.

Edit:

and here be my Strat which i've had refretted with 6100 frets. I've been playing this one alot lately.

Cool stuff, I love natural strats! The cab I've got (well, getting) has castors so shouldnt shake the floor as much as one without (hopefully anyway). Not sure if its safe to run a 16ohm setup through an 8 ohm hotplate either.

Tom

16 ohm setup into 8ohm hotplate?

Don't. Bad Idea. At least one thing will end up fecked.

Post by: _tom_ on October 09, 2006, 06:06:54 PM

haha I thought it might. Anyone fancy trading their 16 ohm hotplate for my 8 ohm then?! :P

Here's my humble gear:

And I'm also modding a Charvel model 3.... I've filled the singlecoil-holes, one of the pot-holes, and the 5-way switch hole. I'm getting a Musikraft all birdseye maple strathead neck, OFR, and of course, a bareknuckle pickup! Can't wait to see her finished  8)

here's part of my rig, anyway.

The VC-30 and the Eggle. The indistinct black blob on the floor is a crybaby.
The Tele is off for a bit of erm...rehab at the moment. I was going to sell it and buy a feline, but those plans are on hold for the minute (Sorry, Johnathan!!) because It's perfect for a gig I've secured in the Medium-term...

So, after it's had a bit of a spruce, I'll post it too.

yes and no.. you need to EQ it properly for the given volume

when i was in london, i tried it out (though it was a full stack) started with the volume very low, and had to tweak the knobs to get the desired levels of treble (low end wasnt a problem), as i turned it up (gradualy to about 6) i had to re-EQ slightly, but it only started to sound more and more massive.

striking a power chord with an all maple feline gunslinger, with the volume on 6 is brain melting!

i <3 tube amps!

oh .. the splawn.. i hate ben for his quick rod.. it's the most kickass sounding amp ever!!! but the pricetag is something i cant afford for quite a while and IMO.. the GH50L is the next best thing for me!

1 short delay on most of the time.

1 long delay.
