I've not used the model you mention, but so long as whatever you plug into the aux-in (or an effects loop return) should work fine. All you're doing is (as you say), bypassing the pre-stage of the unit; assuming you're feeding the amp from an iPod/phone headphone output, the only overriding factor is to make sure the input signal isn't super hot or the output may overdrive/distort as you're hitting the power stage with a signal that's got too much gain. At the same time you obviously need to ensure there's enough output to drive what's behind the aux input, just don't whack the iPod/phone up to 100% immediately. Start low, work up and control the overall volume with the gain/volume pot on the front of the amp. Easy.

I had an Orange Matamp (top left). Bought it at this ex-hire place in Chalk Farm, Landaan, late 70s. It had Davey Johnson's name stencilled on the back. My dad had it revalved at his workplace (MoD) and it caught fire when we were jamming in a friends bedroom, at which stage we were pouring Coke into it to put the flames out. It was a lovely amp. I dread to think what it would be worth now.

I can get one cheaper on Amazon!

I like the Mooer. Likey very much.

We're not all party to information relating to an individual's membership; there's thousands of people here...how was I supposed to know the status of one member? Sheesh.

A bit of a strange one here. I run a small floorboard for certain applications, Boss tuner into a Morley ABY box (splitting the signal into two channels), channel A has just got a SansAmp BDDI (which runs whumpy and cleanish), channel B has got three dirtboxes in the chain (I only use one at a time!) in the order of Boss ODB, SansAmp GT2, SansAmp VTBass (the new one, BDDI sized). These signals run into a stereo power amp with the BDDI a 4x10 and dirt into a 2x10. Following a tidy up, I have a BDDI-sized space on the board that I'd like to stick something into. I'm not really a flange guy, chorus maybe. I'd like an octave up pedal, but everything bass-centric seems to be octave-down. Any suggestions?

Isn't Mani a member here?

Give Josi Warman a look up. (http://www.warmanguitars.co.uk) No idea where he sources his stuff from, but I fitted a pair of humbucker sized P90s to one guitar and a single zebra humbucker to another. Whether or not you feel they're too cheap for a PRS is one thing, but from a personal perspective, both mods have (to my ears) been a significant improvement to both guitars.

I had a 1978/79 for a very long time; got it in a trade. Weighed a ton and when I got it, it wasn't really considered as vintage just 'used and a few years old'. It weighed a ton, had a huge fat neck, was very boomy on the first few frets of the A & E strings, the stock pickup failed, the stock pots failed, but apart from these matters, it was pretty robust and needed little adjustment. Looking back though, it really was a nasty piece of sh*t. Compared to modern instruments it sucked big time. Glad it's gone really. P

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1465832266' post='3071387'] Spotify Playlist coming up ha ha!! [/quote] While a few people here have suggested their favoured albums, I'd advocate putting a playlist together of everything in release order and just listen to the band evolve. You'll find your favourite period. I'm a member of a closed member online blog...the guy who runs it is a huge XTC fan and he's been posting some rare stuff (ie the BBC/Transistor Blast 4CD and a bunch of great live shows). If anything, it all makes me wish it was 1980 again. Why did I waste so much time following Kiss in my teens and not homegrown stuff? Sigh.

Watched the program, after every performance there was an inevitable barrage of questions from my wife as to how good they were in my opinion. There were some good players, but I found the whole acoustic/percussive playing a but tedious. For me, the standout performances were the young kid playing Bohemian Rhapsody and the guy playing the jazzy stuff (with the brown guitar). Find it a little difficult to understand how that 'street musician' Dave actually made it on to the show.

Unsure whether anyone's seen this yet. It's a bit Living Colour, it's a bit metal. They seem like genuinely nice kids and they're not even 15 yet, so there's immense potential. They also have a documentary film coming out! P [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3ZdI2YxZxI[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYH7BkV1BPQ[/media]

I was watching the Rockpalast show on YouTube last night...suprised to see how many of my preferred tracks were sung by Colin Moulding.

My mate plays drums for Tesseract. They did a promotion thing for Jagermeister and played on top of a mahoosive igloo thing in the Artic.

Just picked up one of these from the sale pages of this esteemed forum. Honestly, is dead good. For certain situations I'm running a stereo board and trying to emulate dUg Pinnick's tone, so the plan is to have a Sansamp BDDI handling the low frequency stuff and the GT2 the dirty highs. Gotta say it sounds f***ing epic. Well pleased.

Nooooooooooooooooo!

Nice.
