    My 1986(i think) Mesa Boogie Mark III that gets the cops called when I crank it up.

    in front are two very non vintage Ibanez with Dimarzio pickups.

     

     

    My 1991 Fender Tele Plus with Lace Sensors.

    Because it's the same model that Jonny Greenwood plays I have had Radiohead fans offer to buy it from me.

    I paid $700 for it a few years back(stickers were already on it) and I've had people offer me double that.

    Thump, Kerry King Kevin that setup is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Love the Marshalls too.

    I am trying to figure out why my posts don't separate in paragraphs when I click post. It just strings along. I didn't write it out this way intentionally.

     

    You are correct...Kerry King or KFK as he says!

     

    For your problem...If you are using Safari this would explain your issues with formating text.  Safari is my favorite but it doesn't work well with this Forum.  I would try Firefox if you don't want to use MS IE Explorer.

     

    Hmmm....is the outer permiter of those Marshall stacks completely empty? Surprise I'm actually surprised to see two mics up there!

    KFK doesn't look like he plays music at all.... Wink

    Mike, yes. Actually, at least with many of the gigs I've been involved with, especially if the band was doing something for promo ~ a video for instance ~ most the "big" stage rig cabinets were empty ~ just props Big Smile

    Hey Prof Thump. Great thread. I guess I'll have to start posting here. By now, I suspect pretty much all my stuff is "vintage" LOL. Hmm, where shall I start? Maybe an old Kustom or Standel rig? or a couple of Fender Coronados?

     Good thing he's wearing sweatpants........

    I dunno if this flys for "vintage", but I took a cheap Sears Silvertone hot-chassis, single-ended 50C5 amplifier, and converted the circuit into a "Micro-Champ". It uses a 6AQ5/6005 output tube. I'm thinking seriously of pulling that ugly grill cloth and replacing it with black.

    With a actual PS transformer, there wasn't much room. It was tight. Vintage guitar chassis, case and spare parts.

    I have a perforated metal back panel, to cover the back of the innards.

    The PS xformer is from a FM signal generator. The single-ended 6BQ5 output transformer is from a Motorola 3-channel console stereo. The speaker driver is a 8" Motorola/Jensen "Golden Voice" fullrange. It may not be the optimum driver for the application, but it sounds good.

    Output tube is a 6005, the rectifier tube is a 6X4. The driver tube is a 12AX7.

    I don't have a guitar, but I have a somewhat decent keyboard I've used with the amp. It's got a nice creamy scream, with some rather nice clipping sounds when pushed.
