Re: The bottom of the snare

I once hadda dream about an internal snare mic.

I guess I went to bed with a pretty good ...


... wait for it ...


... buzz.


But even if such a thing existed, we would be debating whether to point it more up or down, or utilizing a stereo capsule.

Re: Latest gear you've acquired.....

a Slick tele, my third - I love the sound and playability and look, but damn this one is heavy a 50% steel guitar - cool with heavy distortion, I already had the requisite bar slide (on top, a bunch of other "slides" I use at lower right) the Fox pedal Killface (bass) and Kingdom (guitar) dirt pedal...

Re: I'm not a piano technician

I repaired a Rhodes 77 some 20 years ago.

Not the same, I know, but I mention because I was able to tune it with a Sabine tuner (after I did a lot of mechanical work on some of the tines and key arms and hammers and further work on some coils).

Would a modern tuner with a mic help with that?

Re: The bottom of the snare

The only "mods" I did to my Pro,Jr. (tweed) was to change out the speaker (can't remember what, I think a better Jensen) and put a 12AU7 in the pre because I use pedals for dirt and like the clean sound I get without 'em. Also, there's some screw in the head frame that I recall is like 1/8" too long...

Re: The bottom of the snare

I reca roscoenyc as a long-time proponent of The Pro,Jr., using them ( a pair, I think?) on stage with Earle. I think his might have been goosed, as, I believe, were Jeff Beck's. Lovely amp, awesome pedal platform but good sounding on it's own when ya want that just-at-breakup sound, it's perhaps le...

Re: 1073's... Real deal or one of the many clones?

8) I will say it is the mostest cleanest, stream-lined looking piece in my racks. Of my <$1k pre's (and they all are), it sounds closes to the ISA1, a little meatier in the low mids, not as bright; the PM1000 is a fave on guitar amps (I alternate between a UA710, the ISA1, a UA110, and a Altec 1589b...
