Some Rocket Foolishness

[Billion81]

El34 Rocket clip I did.

The clip got a little clippy when uploaded to YT.

Anyway- Here it is

Sounds good, I find that I can also get the honky tones with my Reverb Rocket 6550 tube version by using the watts control on the PI.

I lowered the 220k plate resistor on V1 to 120k to clean it up and added a foot switched boost on V1b with 10uf cap to ground for more gain on demand.

Reverb stays subtle, I didn't hear much reverb on your video?

Tanatlizingly, your clip is blocked for viewing in Germany. That Rocket must have some seriously naughty content.

Actually they keep on doing this, especially on video links from the Dumble Dept. I 'm wondering if there is crawler software looking for performance rights infringements. Did you happen to play any well known licks?

Best, tony

Thanks you guys-

As far as the reverb level I keep it pretty low. It's like a safety net for me. I am an admitted (though not recovering) reverb junky.

Sorry OT- Not sure why it's not working in Germania. I tried to look at settings but it may the fact that I used a Beck track in the intro/credit.

That could be a major issue for the EU folks. I'll put my thinking cap on. It's not as good as the source vid since so much is stripped out during upload/compression.

Dude,

Great tone and excellent playing! Well done. Hope to see more from your Rocket (more reverb too) and something from your Express. You've really got the chops. Don't forget to crank the gain on the Express and light that thing up.

sounds great! what speakers?

Thanks. The speakers are Celestion Golds. I have a 4X12 of Blues that sounds really good with this and the express. Louder than shit though.

I think I can figure out how to get some better recording..to highlight these amps.
