    Blue speakers

    Let me know when your in Nottingham Jacco, bring a few tubes and I'll organise some music. Ha ha. Yes, its a cool amp. Just got a Mullard el34 and it's a different league from anything else I ever used. I have put a 5751 and an ECC82 as pre-amps (I think); it doesnt distort anywhere near as...

    Blue speakers

    Ok thanks, perfect information. What amp do you have? Mine is a univalve so 15w, but it does overdrive quite quick, not a lot of clean headroom, so sounds like the gold may be better. Only new ones on ebay, shame, but have a great guitar shop (hotrox) within a couple of hours and they have both...

    Blue speakers

    Thanks Jacco. I have heard those golds are amazing. Do they drive well? They are the same price (give or take) as the blues. I am not sure if there higher power handling makes them break up less easily?

    New set-up

    Can I thoroughly recommend my new set-up? I have had BKP mules in my 150, and recently bought and soldered myself (I won't post pictures, its not pretty!) an RS kit, the Jimmy Page coil tap and phase kit. Playing through an EL34 amp it sounds sooooo good. As I said, can I recommend it. It is...

    Blue speakers

    Hi, has anyone tried a celestion blue (or similar) in a 2x12? I have a THD cab, and was wondering about putting a blue in it. I imagine it would sound good, especially at just break-up, but its an expensive experiment? J

    Boutique PAF Clones

    I have BKP mules in mine...definite difference to the original, which are un-named but presumably gotoh's. There is more difference between the bridge and neck now, and clear but with more smooth midrange. I don't know if its an improvement to how other people hear me. To add to the scientific...

    LS150 caps and bumble bees

    Having just played my LS, the tone pots work, the volme pots work, it doesn't get muddy except when it really should. Makes you wonder what I was thinking when I ordered the new stuff. Oh well, live and learn, I hope it is better, whatever that is....thanks for all the comments, knowledge and...

    Wait!

    I have just bought some scales. To weigh luggage so I told myself. I have a 7lb Tele, an 8lb Strat, an 8lb Westone Thunder 2, and a 9lb Love rock. Much more interesting than my 12kg luggage.

    Correct RS Kit Long or Short?

    Thanks. I have emailed. Its out of stock, the set with the phase and coil split, so will wait for it to be made. I hope I can wire it all up when it comes. I made a shredmaster clone from that clone stompbox supplier and it almost works sometimes! I haven't ordered the braided wire, just going...

    Great information and help as ever, thanks. Anyone know how I change my order with RS then? Ha ha J

    Correct RS Kit Long or Short?

    Thanks John I read a lot, then pressed the button on an RS JP Vintage coil tapped/phase kit. With long pots...I did ask, on the order, for them to check I had it right, pot lengths so here's hoping they read it. :oops: I accept what you say about the changes, seems to be so many thoughts on...

    Correct RS Kit Long or Short?

    Which kit should I order, the long or short shaft kit, for my 06 LS150? I gather, having searched, that I will have to enlarge the pot-holes to fit... Will I need new knobs as well? Incidentally, how do I get the current knobs off? Thanks, enjoying a Sat pm tinker ;) Jack

    LS150 caps and bumble bees

    Thanks again. Did you do it all yourself? I have just been looking at wiring diagrams, at my LS, at wiring diagrams, at my...you get the picture. There is a lot more wire (!) in mine, and I cant seem to place one bit from the other! Not sure what I am asking you, except I see RS and others do...

    LS150 caps and bumble bees

    Thanks both, thats helpful. May have a tinker, though I accept the quality of what I already have. I can always change it back. Were the changed electrics a kit, or home wiring and parts?

    LS150 caps and bumble bees

    Hi, I have a 2007 LS150 with big orange capacitors...may get a picture up with this, may not....what will they be? I think they may be Orange Drops, but only from the way they look, there is no 'name' on them. Should I change them to bumble bees? Thanks for any help Jack

    Oh God

    For absolutely no good reason I can possibly explain, despite owning a lovely LS150, a strat, a nash tele (hehehe) and a Westone Thunder 2 from 1980 something with a straight-through neck, I want that LS1 http://www.musicland.co.jp/store/campaign_detail/shinjuku/359 It must make my life better...
