Re: Concorde vs. Asteroid/Clone
I've had both, and Allyn's put a bigger grin in my ears FWIW. Simply awesome amp. Build quality was just off the charts and the addition of the footswitchable fast /gradual is genius.

Re: My Rocket has a new hangar!
That's a nice board. If you think that it would be too "purdy" for one of your guitar amps, I'll take it off your hands. I'm sure a liverpool would look frickin awesome in a Koa home! heh...here's a few brothers and sisters of roosters board...thought that one looked familiar :wink: some birdseye k...

Re: Bloom from the PLAYER's perspective.
You may be able to add gain at later stages as well but a terrific amp like the Dumble ODS will BLOOM at low volume and be crystal clear even when overdriven, a benchmark for amp design and TONE. Besides the above... Tip #2: drop the pick and start playing with your fingers...you will be amazed at ...

Re: Anybody heard a 'Pure 64' speak cab? How about 'Austone'
I did run into a 1/12 cab recently that had a speaker in it called the 'Austone 12'. It actually sounded pretty good with a variety of amps. Also, FWIW, the cab looked liked the Pure 64 1/12 but I didn't catch if it was actually a Pure 64 or something made by Austone. Can somebody give me a clue? T...

Re: Really liking my new "Ultimate Attenuator"...
Interesting...so the UA is a load/reamp kinda thing. Didn't know that.... I think for the $$$ I'll just build an Airbrake for now....until someone throws out a better DIY attenuator. I'm still going to install a VVR or two and compare notes with the Airbrake. :) Hey Dave - Get in touch if you still...

Re: Really liking my new "Ultimate Attenuator"...
I have heard too many good reports of the unit to not think it is the best of its kind. I have owned a few THDs over the years, an Altair, and a Tom Scholls PS, as well - all are a stab at the volume thing but nothing worthy of any real amp tone. Certainly hearing you weigh in on this makes any sli...

Re: Meet the Komutt
So the 60 day report on this amp is that it just completely freaking rocks...due to some travel and home sale issues I've not been able to really blast it as much as I would prefer - but got an hour or two in with it this afternoon and I'm still grinning. Girth and authority are two words that come ...

Re: Meet the Komutt
Bump could you / someone please explain the "fast - gradual " thing...?? Choke sag ? ( There's far too many "inside" abbreviasions and expressions here for a guitar amp novice.... :P ) It's a voicing switch that changes the character of the amp. "Gradual" mode is the regular mode, not as quick to r...

Re: Express Tone Controls
The Alan Phillips' clone is one of 5 as I hear it. Its in Oregon and it is a beautiful thing. Stevie, the 'Komutt' owner has played it too. I don't think he would dis it. Apparently, AP cloned 5 Express's for 5 original owners, tha's the story I heard. This was before he started rolling with Carol ...

Re: Meet the Komutt
Glad you like it! :D Me too :wink: It's really pretty amazing the tones from this rig. It seems that the volume jump going from fast / gradual is less noticable at higher volumes, but very noticable at low volumes. It would be cool if there was a trim pot or something where that level could be adju...

Re: what does a trainwreck sound like? Songs/guitarists
Great clips, I think I like the #2 clip with the LP best. I've listened to that one a bunch of times and that one has some mojo.
