just thought it might be interesting to see pictures of how you all use your overtone and incorporate it into your rigs

nice.... i'm planning to use mine with a tc electronics G-System... the guys over at tc electronics tell me that by using a 'breakout box' the din connector of the footswitch can be converted into relays so i can assign the switches to buttons on the G-Sys. Hopefully it'll work!!

How do you find the Two Rock Cabs with the amp?

Also wats that on top of the Overtone

The Two Rock cabinets are nice big open sounding cabinets. the unit on top of my OTS is a Mr. Springy reverb -works great with the OTS.

A supposed Fuchs 1x12" front ported, closed-back cab.  I found it at Austin Vintage Guitar last month for $150 unloaded.  Right now it has a WGS E65 (Celestion g12-65 clone) in it, but I'm thinking about putting in my EVM12L Classic.

I don't really know if this is a Fuchs cab or not.  It looks very well made, but most of Andy's stuff is also A LOT more expensive.  Admittedly, I did buy this used & it has a few dings, scratches, and gouges in it, but $150?  I gotta get some good pics of it & send 'em to Andy to find out for sure.

hey if it sounds good badges don't count!

fair play it seems like you got a bargain!

just while you're thinking of replacing the speaker, i emailed nik about cabinets and speakers a while back and this is the response he gave me...

"As for speaker cabs, I'd say speakers would be a big part of it. If you can get the old EV M12L speaker, it'd be great. These are often found in Pa cabinets - Fender, Carvin, Peavey and such. Sometimes, you can get these cheap used. Then, you can perhaps make or commision a 1x12 cab."

Maybe something to think about?

Yeah, I've had the amp for about a month now, just without a head cab.  While it was "naked", I tried the EVM12L Classic & the WGS E65, right now the 65 is what's in the cab.  I love the sound of the 65, the weight is another thing compared to the EV, but the EV does sound great, too.  What I'm really waiting on is the opportunity to turn this thing up, then I'll have a baseline re:  E65 vs EVM12L.

Also, since the EV is 16ohm, I could eventually augment my setup with another 1x12" cab, 16ohm speaker (perhaps a Celestion Heritage G12-65) & get a total load of ~8 ohms.

sounds good... wat effects are you running with it and how have you got them routed?


Title: Re: post your entire rig
Post by: bobgoblin on September 04, 2008, 03:39:56 AM
I have a Kleinulator and a TC Electronic Nova Delay, that's all.  I have a Barber Small Fry and a Vox V847 wah, as well, but I'm not using those at this time.

how do u find the nova delay?how does it compare with a dl4 or the boss DD-20 for example


Title: Re: post your entire rig
Post by: bobgoblin on September 04, 2008, 04:05:58 AM
I've never used the DD-20 or the DL4, but the Nova sounds great.  I did have a DD3, an Ibanez RI AD9, and an original Roland Space Echo RE-201 for quite awhile.  The Nova does great tape sounds, analog sounds, and (obviously) fantastic 2290-esque sounds.  Admittedly, it is A LOT of pedal to get a handle on, & I haven't even begun to really figure it out.

nice..been looking at the wampler pedal...thats the brent mason sig rite?

what does the dynacord unit do?


Title: Re: post your entire rig
Post by: Steven_nl on September 04, 2008, 11:55:55 AM
Hi
No this is not the Brent Mason pedal. It's cheaper ($150 for members of the Wampler site). It has a toggle switch for Dumble/Boost/XTC setting. Pretty good for higher gain stuff. Nice people too.

The Dynacord is a leslie. (my only vintage gear). awesome ananlog sound.

how do you use the leslie in mono? or have you got it rigged up in stereo somehow?


Title: Re: post your entire rig
Post by: lstead on September 08, 2008, 03:31:51 AM
 hi,
  I use a Steelsound 2X12 unported cab with a Celestion Classic Lead 80 and an Eminence 'The Governor".  The effects rack is aTC Electronics G sharp and i use a KLeinulator.  The pedals are a bypass for the TC, a simple MIDI change pedal and aPeteresen Strobostomp.  i use a home made 12VDC-9VDC convertor to run the MIDI pedal from the live side of the OTS PAB foot switch.  It works ok with rervations.

Yeah Stereo would have been great. Mine is running in mono in de loop. (Kleinulator)

Guys- I thought I would put up a photo of the pedal board I use with my OTS. The board is powered by a 9v Makita power tool battery. The charger mounted underneath has been modified to act as a receptacle for the battery. This board is so quiet, it's amazing. There is no hum from the battery so the noise floor is 8db down from the Dunlop Brick, it's dead quiet.

The mini-toggle on the connector plate selects either the battery or the Dunlop brick (never had to use the brick yet).
The OTS footswitch connects to the amp via the 6-pin XLR connector so that its cable is detachable. The top hinges up for service. After years of having pedals mounted to an open board and the settings disturbed between gigs, this is working out great!
The OTS footswitch has been modified so that it switches in the Barber Burn unit (or any loop) when OD mode is selected.
