Nice! I really want to a/b a 2000s with my 1200s some day

How wide is that?

[chillerthanmost]

It's easily 30" wide. Sounds huge, I liked it on bass more than on guitar from the little I played to make sure it was all working. It's literally brand new inside. Apprenly it's been in a closet it's entire life. Everything is original and no branding on the tubes seems even remotely faded. It doesn't even look like the two prong cord has even been plugged in. It's kind of mind blowing because it's either brand new or someone did the best job ever maintaining it. I'm gonna swap out all the shit needed to bring it up to date. Should be set for a long time after that.

So how did you stumble onto this amazing deal?

Also, going to be sacrilegious for a moment. I didn't much care for the couple Sunn amps that I played through, UNLESS I ran a boost or dirt into it.

My friend randomly picked it up from someone in CA a few months back, but it turned out to be too much amp for him. He wanted a bass and I had a Fender Road Worn bass collecting dust, so he offered a straight trade and I took it. I'll have to ask him if he has more info on who he got it from.

This and the Model T are entirely different except being about the same volume. The Model T I can never get to stay clean. It's dirty no matter what guitar I use (well, at least at the volumes we play). Even with KT88's. The 2000s is much cleaner and obviously has that hi-fi thing going on. So it definitely sounds better with a nice boost or push to get some drive out of it. When it's cranked it starts to sound squishy and kinda loose in the low end (where the Model T stays kinda tight almost the whole volume spectrum). Yeah, idk, definitely different beasts. I'd use the T on guitar and 2000s on bass any day.

The Noel Redding amp!

Does anyone here know any doom, stoner, sludge bands from Charlotte? Playing there in Nov and need a local or two for the show but I dunno anyone besides Buzzoven and I don't see that happening.

First stage completed.

Man that's rad about the condition that amp is in. Would a solid state recto tighten up that squish? My 1200s stays tight as fuck with low end. I use it as the dark side of the Sunn/Simms combo.

Did anybody post the whole Serial Hawk album yet? http://www.invisibleoranges.com/2015/09 ... for-light/

It's already got a solid state/diode rectifier. Factory stock. One of the two tube sockets isn't even connected on the inside! It's not terribly squishy, maybe it's just the nature of the beast. My 200s was exactly the same. I think I'm gonna put the KT88's from the model t in the 2000s, and the og Coke bottle 6550's from the 2000s in the model t. That I way I get most headroom out of the 2000s, since the model t gets pushed with pedals either way.

DA100-R. JFET Overdrive modeled after ORST + built in verb integrated into the JFET circuit.

That's dope.

Also, saw some love for Battle Hag over at Vice. I guess I can't like you guys anymore. trendies. (also they basically went "hey check out this new band Will Haven. )

Just heard masters for the Fister / Beneath Oblivion split. Its amazing how angry Fister sound.
