    FS: Carvin DC727 7 string guitar

    Hello gentlemen, My Carvin DC727 7 string guitar is up for sale. The guitar plays and sounds great. Problems: Finish chip on the guitar. This is in a photo. I had to route out the pickup holes to fit DiMarzio pickups, and I didn't do a great job, so it looks kind of sloppy if you're...

    FS: Mesa Boogie Mark III short head shell, by gts

    Up for sale is my headshell for a Mesa Boogie Mark III short head or combo. I purchased this shell from gts (of grailtone Boogie forums) last year, and transplanted my combo Mark III into it. The head shell looks great and makes a combo way more convenient to use. I'm no longer playing...

    FS: Shure SM7b, Mesa Mark III, Rectifier cabinet (Athens, GA)

    Shure SM7b -- SOLD Mesa Boogie Mark III Here's the story -- bought a Mark III combo, loved the sound and hated the weight. Bought a headshell to put the combo in, loved the sound and loved the convenience. Then my band broke up and I haven't played much music lately. No need for the amp...

    yt: Bogner Uberkab vs. Mesa Recto (Parker Fly Deluxe)

    God damn, I miss my old Parker Nitefly. The Recto cab has an awesome aggressive punch, and the Bogner has an awesome meaty roar. The combo s just absurdly great. Now I want an Uberkab too... This forum is bad for my wallet :|

    Babyface vs Firepod comparison

    The DI on the Firepod is vastly inferior to the DI on the Fireface 400. I used an A/B/Y box to compare the instrument input on the Firestudio Project with a Little Labs Redeye. The Redeye sounded much better, with a ton of clarity and tightness that the Firestudio lacked. Did the same...

    Hot, aggressive, thick, passive pickup

    Came here to say this. X2N is so good for metal.

    Hmm, something is missing....

    You're missing a few MT-2 pedals. Or, you know, a high gain amp. . .

    Carvin Guitars

    :mad: Oh well, whatever. I'm pretty sure a mini switch broke anyway, so I'll probably be replacing all the electronics fairly soon anyway...

    Carvin Guitars

    Lol. That sort of wiring accommodation was one thing they didn't want to do for me. I think I requested two volumes and a 5 way blade... "No can do". OK. Whatever.

    Carvin Guitars

    I own a Carvin DC727 that I installed DiMarzios into. The Good: The guitar sounds and plays fucking-amazing. Great tone, great playability. One of the nicest playing instruments I have ever laid hands on. Love it. Carvin was the only way I was getting an ash bodied, ebony fretboard 7...

    FS/FT: Mesa Mark IV B for Rev F (or earlier) Rectifier MINT

    Killer amp! You should post clips of it in the MF400 and Recto cab, just to help sell the amp... :D

    Marshall Mode 4 cab vs Mesa Rectifier cab

    Yeah, and that's one of the main reasons I want a Mesa Recto cab at all. I had one a while back and hated it, but it IS the standard so I'm going to chalk it up to user error. :) Yeah, it was also used on Ghost Reveries... Some of my favorite tones, so I'd like to have the speaker to mess...

    Marshall Mode 4 cab vs Mesa Rectifier cab

    I strongly desire a 412 cab, and these two are my top picks. Marshall Mode 4 (either the V30 or G12K100 one) or the Rectifier cab. Your thoughts?

    Cabs: Mesa vs. Earforce

    Earforce sounds a LOT clearer. Less midrange fuzz. Any chance of a clip with a recto cab? (Fixed for clarity :o)
