The Gear (Pictures)
« on: May 11, 2003, 11:59:38 am »
Since there is no General Discussion Forum, I thought, hey, we need a pictures thread. Show off your gear!

Older pic of the Concert Leads on a reissue T cab.


The Betas with the Concert Slave.


A crappy picture of my gear. (The hiding Ampeg is not mine).


All of the above cost me a hair over $1,000. I love it when people don't know what they have. "$100? Sure, I'll take a $100." SOLD!

This, cost me more than a grand (go figure), but worth every penny.
PRS McCarty Standard, clear coat finish, adjustable stop -tail piece (for the big strings), wide-fat neck. Best guitar I've ever owned EVER.

THIS IS A GREAT IDEA,,,MAYBE MR, SUNN CAN PUT ON A PICTURE LINK JUST FOR PHOTOS ONLY...IT WOULD BE A GAS !! AND EDUCATIONAL FOR THE NEW SUNN GUYS JOINING THE SUNN CLUB AS TO WHAT VINTAGE STUFF THAT'S BEEN BUILT AND WHATS FLOATING AROUND .                                                                                                                                 BOB

trebuchet (and any others),

what is your favorite set-up? do you run the 2 concerts or betas into the slave?

what i would like (even more than seeing pics) is hearing how other people are rocking these monsters...

Two types of setups:
One Beta powering the Beta 4x12 and Beta 1x15. Master line out to the Slave that powers the Reissue T cabinet.

For phony twin guitar sound:
One Beta with channel A line out to other Beta. Second Beta powers Beta cabs. Channel B line out to Slave, powering Reissue T. I can switch channels on the preamp Beta and use both at the same time, running in "stereo". Sounds cool during certain parts of our songs, like there are 2 guitars going.

I plan on rewiring the reissue T to 4ohms, to match the Beta cabs.

have you ever tried splitting your signal entirely and running two seperate lines from your guitar into two seperate amps? i would be interested in hearing how it sounds, i have never tried it myself...

You could do that with a DOD A/B box if the pedal also runs both at the same time. I might look into that.

actually, splitting your guitar signal into two different amps makes a huge sound, very wide, especially when you use two different types of amps with different settings, for example, with my own band Orange Sunshine we use to split the signal with an old delay pedal with 2 outputs (batteries on, effect off!) and go into one hiwatt for the high and high-mid frequencies and into a model t for the lows and low-mid, the hiwatt is running 2 4x12 cabs and the model t is running 2 2x15 cabs, the result is quite impressive! that sound so full, from deep growly thunder to mean and sharp brightness, super sustain with creamy howling tone! you can also switch the delay on and put it on a short delay time (around 50 milliseconds), which makes it even more stereo. you can also daisy chain without problems with the model t, so you don't need to use a pedal to split your guitar signal, the T is doing that at its inputs (with 2 direct-outs), put your guitar lead into the middle input and go from the direct-outs straight into 2 other amps, enjoy! cheerio, guy

I'm the proud owner of a 72 scepter just got it a week ago, traded an old traynor head and a couple of bucks for it. it had a piece of ply wood in front, so I put some extended metal, looks sweet. I tried to post a picture. Guess i'm too dumb to figure out how to. I split my guitar cry baby, rotovibe, marshall (4 x 12 + 15) and metal zone, delay, scepter (4 X 12). it sound awesome. I love my Sunn((O)), it kicks ass!

one question what does the polarity switch do! [/url]
