i reeeeeeeeeeeally want to hear the mako custom 100! and that one's on a VHT cab... *sniff* i dont know where i can find VHT in canada :(

that looks to be a makoplex to me
Georege's Guitars has Some VHT stuff in stock. I think their located in Cobourg??? If you're just looking try out some VHT stuff, make the drive over to Mattawa and you can try my Classic or Deliverance 60. Both are absolute metal machines!!!

I'd like to hear the Mako too. Are you able to post any clips Ben?

i think i'll take you up on that! and i'll bring my JSX and my les paul! no pittbull, or is the classic a pittbull CL? :p

i blame unearth for giving me VHT GAS :D
Yes, the Classic was part of the Pittbull series(91-94?). The Classic is now called the CLX. Hartley Peavey made VHT change it because of their Classic line of amps. I believe they're built by hand and only made per costumer order.

BTW:Just PM me if you think you'll be in the area and we'll set something up.

Hey Metal#J#,

Does your PRS have a blend knob? I just looked at your pics and didn't see a selector switch.
No, but I've tried one. I wasn't really impressed with it mostly because it seemed to drop the level and make my EMG's not sound as hot. I've tried forever to find a 3 position rotary switch but haven't been able to find one. Right now, only the volume pot is hooked in to the bridge p/u and it seems to be working quite well. The EMG 81 came alive when I simplified the wiring and removed everything else. So I guess other than the volume knob, the other 2 knobs are just there to keep it looking pretty:smile:

The rig has changed a bit since my last post. I picked up another Classic cheap. I think I'm going to have to try some stereo effects or a dry wet mix. Sadly, I'll have wait for the preamp tubes I ordered from VHT before I can get to any of that. When I recieved the amp (that was supposed to be pro/packed) the casters were loose in the back of the combo and they smashed all the preamp tubes.:mad:

Looks like this is a good place for my first post in almost 6 years lol.

This is my latest rig.....quite a contrast to some of my earlier rig pics. I picked up the Boss GS-10 on kijiji for $100 and just recently started running it thru the Alto Trouper. The Trouper has bluetooth and a 3 channel mixer built in. Combined the Boss and Trouper do a lot for the overall cost. It's way loud (200w) for bedroom playing and the full range is nice. I'll probably get another Trouper soon.....apparently they link wirelessly.
