Session 500

Nashville 112 is a great little amp ! I really like the sound of my Nashville 112, but I absolutley LOVE my Session 500..... however, my back doesn't.

Best Purchase = 1971 Emmons D-10 p/p

Worst Purchase = Peavey 8.5C power amp

Just spent the past couple of hours tryin to figure out John Hugheys wonderful solo on "Sweet Memories" (with the Time Jumpers)..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES6dOxN3mEo

Anybody know the part at 2:40 - 2:46 ??? Thanks

Rob, My Session 500 misbehaves in this way from time to time as well. I usually correct it by simply unplugging, cleaning, then re-attaching the connectors to the circuit boards. This lasts for a while before acting up again. My next step is to chop off the connectors, and solder the wires directly ...

Yup... what John just said.

I'm still the best steel player in my whole house.... well... for now at least

Welcome to the forum Georgette! Congratulations on your new album.... we look forward to hearing more from you around here! Cheers

Gene, This is really wonderful. Thanks for sharing this info with us here on the forum. I have a Pro 1 Ser # 17681, and a model 6152 ser# 9613. Do have any info on these guitars? Thanks again Gene.

Those old Mavericks were, in the big scheme of things, pretty low cost/quality guitars. However, mine allowed me to learn lotsa good stuff ... such as bar slants,which I probably would have not explored,if I had started with a pro model instrument from the beginning. I also really loved the tone tha...

LKL = Raise E's
LKR = Lower E's

As a temporary fix, I find that good-ole WD-40 does the trick quite well.... but a scratchy pot will have to be replaced.

Thanks Joe.... you are the greatest!!!

Looking for a tab for the part beginning from 1:56 to 2:04 on this video.... thanks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQsICNO-IUs

Welcome aboard, David. You're gonna love it.... lotsa great folks here.

Greg, The NV112 is a great, little amp. It works really well (out front) when miced, but you'll need it turned up in the monitors to hear what's comin out on the stage. I mostly use my Session 500 (weighs a ton) and rarely need it in the monitors at all.
