no noise or scratch, but the taper is only about 1/4 of what it could be, which is why I was thinking about replacements. Any suggestions about good price/quality ratio brand?

thx for the quick reply myles

 

how about the tone pots, is it worth the money to (have someone) put in higher grade pots?

[Feel free to ask Myles]

hey miles, I have a couple of questions for you:

 

1 - have you ever heard of the "VR02 - 15W L-pad attenuator" from AmpMaker , does this work?

 

2 - I have just bought me a BRONX 112 amp (Fender Blues Deluxe clone), that has a decent basic sound, but it "feels" a bit "stiff", now that could be the speaker - a huge TheGovernor from Emininence - that hasn't had enough playing time yet, but also I find the tone controls are not very effective: they seem to be working in the last 1/4 of their throw only, so adjusting it is a bit hard. The amp being Korean, I suspect the pots are of the cheaper kind. Am I right in this, and if so, will changing them enhance performance of the amp and what brand / type would you suggest

 

3 - also on this amp: there is a "clean" and a "drive" channel - which pre amp tubes do I change to lower the drive in the drive channel? I basically want "clean" and "a little less clean" - as in just make it growl a bit

 

thx in advance for your time

I want to split my guitar signal, so I can have

 

-->effects-->

gtr amp

------------>

 

in order to retain the initial attack and ADD the overdrive/chorus/delay sound

 

I heard this is possible but NOT very good with just a Y-cord, and that I would need a splitter box - is this correct and can I make one myself?

Myles,

 

I have a Fender Hotrod Deluxe that is a 'bit loud' when crancked for tone. Is there a (cheap & safe) way to reduce the power, so I can turn up without being mistaken for a heavy metal guitar player?

 

Also, could I replace the 1x12" speaker with 2x10" ers of is it better to add a separate 2 (or 4) x 10" speaker cab

 

thx
