I'm definitely going to snag one. Awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I DMed that dude about buying it off him but he never even read the DM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveyjones Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 @Q182 @blinkstillrules... my VL-1002 is ready for pickup. completely retubed, cleaned, voltage tested, noise and hum eliminated, completely re-soldered. $50. edit: it still has a bit of a hiss when it's fully overdriven, but the BOSS noise suppressor pedal i have in the effects loop takes care of that. i got some short patch cables and velcroed it to the back of my cabinet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveyjones Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 so i did a bit more detective work. remember i mentioned that the ampeg VLs are known to be a bit noisy when overdriven, and i have a BOSS noise suppressor pedal in my effects loop? turns out, so did tom. i also have a furman power conditioner and the very same 90s korg rack tuner in my setup. you can see the white pedal sitting inside the empty 1U bay: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also use a Furman. I use this one: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SS6Block--furman-ss-6b-6-outlet-power-strip I don't get much hum with it. Works really well for the price. I don't even use my Boss NS-2 anymore. No rack setup for me though. I do have a pedal board, but the only pedal I really use is my Polytune 3 tuner.
