back when i was a nipper we had an old H&H amp head that had an output for a leslie cab, so you could stick your guitar through it easily. you could pick leslies up for about £50 then too. and all this was just fields, etc.DuoSonicBoy wrote:

Yeah I love it. Since getting it, I've pretty much played with it on 99% of the time. It loves the SHO into it to boost and adds a really nice tone to the Crunch box after it. Definitely one of my favourite pedal purchases ever.Progrockabuse wrote:how you getting on with it? think mine's used for 95% of a gig. i flip between the rock and rawk setting for the song or even mid song.lamp wrote:Progrockabuse wrote:just noticed lamps signature. dam right brother
Just gave it another go. It could be my memory failing me but it seems worse. Worse or not it's way beyond acceptable levels of background noise. It's a shame because the amp itself sounds very nice and is exactly what I wanted. I'll try a replacement out in the shop before bringing it home, hopefully another one will be fine.Mike wrote:Nope, sounds electrical to me. Back, back foul demon!James wrote:There might be no need to be. It looks like it'll be going back. Its crackling like a bastard even with nothing plugged in. I didn't notice anything at first but it's quite bad now. It sounds a bit similar to a scratchy cable or interferance on an old radio. I just tried it in different rooms around the house and it's no different. Could it be a not broken in speaker? I don't think it would be but it's the only thing I can think of that would mean it's not spannered. It's not the one I played in the shop but one they had boxed up in the store room.Mike wrote:Very cool, it looks lush. I'm mildly jealous.
Boo urns. Will likely take it back on Saturday.

I'm going to have to try out both of these at some point very soon...


Both lovely guitars, think the CP has the edge

I much prefer the tremolo placement on the original. I don't think it makes as much difference on a jag (although I've never really compared) but looking at those two pictures the original placement just looks more elegant. It could all just be familiarity but the spacing relative to the bridge and the butt of the guitar just flows better.

As far as tremolo placement goes, I don't really use it so it'll probably be unscrewed and left without on a day to day basis.James wrote:I much prefer the tremolo placement on the original.

The '66 reissue also has the 'limited edition' factor, there's only going to be 50 of each colour in Europe so they say.
The black/tort of the CP is cracking though. I'd have this if there were no limits

It's probably going to be down to how the neck 'feels'.

Because I never had a Jaguar before I bought the CP, it has never bothered me at all, plus I'm not really hung up on the aesthetics of guitars and gear, I just want it to work well for me in terms of sound and performance.James wrote:I much prefer the tremolo placement on the original.
