    Dawson1498, what’s your opinion of that Epi stack you’ve got there? I’ve been REALLY loving some Gibson amps, from their vintage, low watt crestine series combos to more modern goldtones. I’m curious if the Epiphone’s are similar to their Gibson relatives? Um, I see you’ve got a mic on it….. any chance you could share some clips from it?

    Say, Dawson, how do the Behringer Vintage series stack up to the real things?

    I love all the Behringer pedals I have. The phaser is great, the time machine is cool, and I modified the tube monster with the Bitmo kit and it is one of my favorite distortions. Flemsy made, but if you are careful with them good pedals. Check the link below to hear some of them, I use the phaser on Sound of Conception and I use the Time Machine on Crossfire…the distortion is used throughout.

    I love the Valve Junior. I modded it with the Bitmo Trio kit and it is great. I have never played any Gibson amp and bought the Epi stack as a basic “intro” tube amp for me. It will do anything I ask of it and can be pretty damn loud for 5 watts too. The Trio kit adds a tone and 3 voicing switch for around $50 and is a great addition. Simple to install to, I do a lot of pedal mods and the trio was quite easy to install. The speaker is an Eminence Lady Luck and I like it as well.

    Here is my site…lots of jams (I use the Epi on all the ones I play in which is most.)

    If you know a singer/songwriter and a bass player in the Memphis area, hook us up! Lol

    Take it easy guys, PM me if you have any other questions or anything. Also if you are ever interested in getting something modded or doing electrical work just drop me a line and I’ll see if I can help you. Later dudes and keep rockin’!

    Aww, your a dirty guy Dawson. I should’a asked you how it sounds clean (being a 5 watt’r, I figure not too loud), but I’m really interested in it’s clean tone. I checked you samples (great stuff by the way), most of it’s driven. Is that the Valve Junior miced on the opening part of the song named “beauty” ?

    Yeah I guess I should have mentioned dirty (I use effects a bit). It breaks up pretty early but I think you can get a good clean tone. I just got a compressor so I think that can help the clean out. Long Hard Fight I know is clean with it (or maybe just the volume on like 10-11 o’clock. On beauty the rhythm is my strat coming out of a Line 6 Spider, the Epi is lead and yes a little dirty. I’ll try to record something clean for you. With the Bitmo you can keep it on Low voice and boost it quite high and it still stay clean as well. I’ll try to post a video or something for you soon.

    Oh and my girlfriend surprised me today with a Voice Box, she rocks so hard!

    great pic Sim Tut!

    It’s neat seeing the time line between your board when you first joined and now! Your board went from looking very amateur to looking very pro.

    Sim Tut, your board is pretty awesome too. I could really rock that.

    I like it. I don’t hardly use the chorus or vibrato on it but for the delay and the self oscillation stuff it’s pretty cool. I think the only song on my site I use it on is Crossfire.

    Pedal Board – this is constantly changing, but currently from left to right top to bottom-

    Boss CE-2 Analog Chorus – I’ve tried them all and this is the best sounding chorus ever (so far). I do a mod on this pedal so that I can set the mix to 25% wet or 50% wet with the flip of a toggle switch.

    Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive – I do a mod on this pedal to give it the same circuit as a TS808, but I leave Boss’ Assymetrical clipping intact. It’s pure TS808 overdrive but with more crunch and grit. I use it in conjunction with my modified TS9 to get a real hard rock Marshall tone.

    ProCo Rat – Love the rat. Built like a tank. Sounds like a tank if you set the controls the right way.

    Boss TU-2 Stage Tuner – Gettin’ in tune, right in tune, I’m in tune…

    Danelectro Dan-Echo – This is the best sounding Delay pedal ever and it’s the only Danelectro pedal that’s worth a crap. It’s got a tone control for just the repeats so you can cut the treble to make it sound more like a tape echo. I like it so much I have two.

    MXR Distortion + I do a mod on this pedal so that you can use it as a clean boost. Which is what I use it for.

    Ibanez TS9 Tubescreamer – I do the standard TS808 Brown mod on this pedal and it sounds great. Much better than stock. Stock they sound like doo-doo. I can’t believe they charge $100 for them fresh out of the factory like that.

    Ibanez CP-10 Compressor/Sustainer – Great sounding Compressor because it’s got a real gentle attack and great sustain. “You can go out and get a bite and come back and it’ll still be ringing.” I swapped out the ugly orange case with the sexy silver case from an Ibanez LA Metal pedal that I had. The sexy silver case was about all the LA Metal pedal was good for.

    Vibrato On/Off Switch – I made this from parts that I bought at Radio Shack. Someday I’ll make a nice one that isn’t all plastic. Works great, but don’t stomp too hard or…..CRUNCH!

    Dunlop Crybaby GCB95 – Haven’t got around to modifying this one. All in due time though.

    Boss RC-2 Loop Station – This is the most complicated pedal I’ve ever owned. I’ve had it for close to 6 months and I’m just now figuring out how to make it do what I want it to do. I’ve cursed at this thing in so many different ways, no wonder it’s red.

    Boss FS5U – There are two of these right next to the RC-2. They make the RC-2 do some stuff when you step on them. What they do I’m not sure, but they do something. I’ll figure it out eventually. Lord knows I hate to read the manual.

    Not to gripe……. but I have a gripe: :doh:

    Isn’t the “poll” attached to this thread kind of pointless? Aren’t both single coils and Hb’ers great. I play through them both, depending on what the sound or style calls for. I have mutual love for both, not to mention guitars that have both and that get used equally. I guess it would be more realistic results if it had an added “both/either” or “depends” option. That would probably take most votes.

    It’s about as telling as a “tits or a$$” poll……. Aren’t they both just great! :love:
