Re: Fuzz roundup

I’m not a huge JHS fan for particular reasons and this pedal is one of them, but at least it’s a copy of a discontinued pedal, that makes me feel more comfortable :oops: . They make great pedals, but sure wish he’d get permission first on these clones. One of the original builders of this pedal was...

Re: Fuzz roundup

Back from the dead! After decades of not really understanding fuzz, I started to come around on it a few years back. While the splatty, spitty, velcro fuzz sound really works for some, I never connected with it. I liked the smoother fuzz sound, but I kept running into the more extreme fuzzes, so I n...

Anyone around?
As I get older, that’s all I seem to be doing: getting a-rounder and rounder.

Re: ALL GOOD THINGS....

It seems we’re still going. Maybe Orange turned off the power but left the standby on so we’re still getting a few sputtering notes out of the old server? :D

Re: Orange Rocker 15 Combo

After a few hours of playing, the 12at7 in my Rocker 15 went microphonic. Considering the price of the tube and the hassle of taking it back to where I got it, I just decided to replace the tube. It’s been running fine ever since, and I couldn’t be happier.

Re: Or15 noisy gain pot

A quick update: replaced V1 with a spare JJ 12ax7 and the gain pot crackling is gone. That said, I’m fairly new to Orange amps, having just bought a Rocker 15 combo last December, and now a Jim Root Terror, so I’m wondering are valve issues common with Orange? Within a few hours of playing on the Ro...

Re: Or15 noisy gain pot

Sorry for bringing this one back from the dead, but I’ve noticed the same issue on my new Jim Root terror, which also comes stocked with JJ valves (bought the last one I could find in Canada :D ). I tried a little deoxit on the gain pot with no effect, so I’m glad I found this post because I never w...

Re: Tube changing question...

So rather than starting a new thread, I thought I might dog pile on this one... I picked up a Rocker 15 combo last week and have been impressed so far. However, last night I noticed some valve rattle. I happen to know the dealer I purchased the amp from is pretty slammed for amp work right now, so ...
