My Remington d8 was really dead sounding at first. I had to tighten nearly every screw nut and bolt on it and then it sang light it was supposed to! I still remember how bummed I was when I first set it up. I'm wondering if the "dud" you had might have had something similar going on.

They decided to put it on eBay.

Thanks Paul. Any other advice?

An older (I think) Excel D10 with 8 pedals and 5 knees has come up for sale semi-locally. I have been interested in the idea of a D10 (I have only played single necks). How does this compare to my single 12 Dekley thinline? The seller isn’t a player and can’t tell me the copedent but I could try to ...

nice guitar! I liked my S10 Slimline alot. I replaced it with a U12 that I still need to setup!

Anyone else have advice to offer?

Darn! I missed this set books!

Hi all! I just picked off a little project. I believe it’s a Rickenbacker DW16. Both fretboards are loose and need reattached. Any advice on how best to do it? Heat up the old glue and restick? Scrape clean and use something new? Any other tips on bringing it back to usefulness also appreciated. I w...

Very cool!

Thanks for the ideas! Anyone else have wisdom to share?

I have an original D130 16 ohm speaker. It is not an “F” model. Was salvaged from an old vintage Hifi cabinet (incidentally it had the JBL 075 tweeter and 2500 crossover). Anyway I was hoping for some low powered tube amp recommendations to go with this speaker. I’m happy to make a cabinet if needed...

I think AC#EGACEis a strong contender!

I’ll take it!

Thanks everyone. Get to play it a little bit tomorrow!

Thanks everyone! I did go ahead and get it. Looking forward to getting a chance to really play with it for a while. I see that people mean when they say it’s size to power ratio is very high!

I had always thought that a Peavey Austin 400 (one acoustic channel and one electric channel) would work well like that I believe it has the tweeter on only for the acoustic channel. Very inexpensive (my brother bought one for $100 a few years ago). Sounds great just ugly and heavy.

There is a local Ampeg Gemini I (G12) for sale. I think it’s a 1966. Hand wired 22 watts, reverb, tremolo, two channels. Seems a lot like a Fender Deluxe reverb in a bigger heavier cabinet. Do people like these as non pedal steel amps? It seems so inexpensive I’m worried I’m missing something. Any e...

Hi all! Does anyone have an idea where I could find the test roll information for this tube tester that I was given? It’s a Superior Instruments Co. model TV-12. I have tried to Google up that information but no luck so far. Thanks for any clues of info! https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-0...

I’m interested in finding a lightweight cabinet (either head or combo) to fit a Silverface Twin Reverb. Anyone have a good lead on one?
Thanks!

I am still waiting for it to come back from the repair man. Thanks!

I guess I’m not 100% sure it’s D series. I came from a LTD 400. I’m sorry that picture isn’t clearer but maybe it will help:

I picked up good condition (I believe) 1972 Quad Reverb the other day. After a few age related fixes of capacitors and a general service I expect it will be sounding good. I would like to build a head cab and matching speaker cabinet for a single 15. I want to use a peavy label JBL I have but am wor...
