Ah. Gotcha.

Thanks for sharing and going to all the trouble to demo these amps! Does anybody know what pickup was used in the DIs? Does Holy Diver mean BKP Holy Divers? Anyway, cool comparisons! :headbang:

That is a nice clean tone. Thanks man! Is that a profile of an actual amp?

What reverb (hardware or software) are you using? That acoustic + voice sounds nice!

Whatever is fastest and easiest for you; one file would be great!

I've had good luck with http://www.savetube.com/. It looks a little sketchy (ads everywhere) but lets you select video or audio and quality settings.

+1 Also it would be cool if you could add a rendered (wav) drum track (for noobs like me)! Thanks!

Sorry I'm so dumb, but what do you mean by "MK1" and "MK2" versions? Does this mean that MK1 = 5150 (similar to 6505) and MK2 = 5150 II (similar to 6506+) or that MK1 and MK2 simply refer to two different schematic versions/revisions of the old 5150? Thanks for the sim btw, it's very cool.

Silly related question: do pickup covers make a difference in sound? I have nickel(?) covered distortion/59 pickups that came stock on my Schecter, and wondered if there would be a difference if I got the uncovered ones that everyone else seems to have...

And this video... I'm really liking Merrow's guitar sound.

Mmm, kinda sounds like there are "sleigh bells" on the overload 20% Gtrs only track... weird.

Thanks for the test man! Not a huge difference between 0 and 20%, and if anything I prefer the 0% (hopefully not just because it's louder).

Yep, I'm an idiot. It is in PI-FREE, so I will try it out for myself (in a few days when I get Sonar reinstalled--I recently put an SSD in my desktop)! I was thinking of buying a Torpedo live, and wondered if I should spring for the VB-101 in order to not miss the overload feature. Hence my...

It would be awesome if Djabthrash or someone could post a track with zero overload setting, then the same track with non-zero overload setting, to see if we can detect a difference and if it is pleasing/useful!

This may help. Go here: http://www.schecterguitars.com/Products/Guitar/C-1-Custom.aspx and click on the "Download Technical Specification" link. It will open up a pdf wiring diagram (with a '59 and sh-11). The your 'DPDT' switch looks like it's on the back of the tone pot on these Schecter...
