Hey Mr Mug, would you ever do a custom colour Tolex cover? Does it come in a lot of colours? Would it be super expensive if I asked for that?

Woo hoo!

It's the conveyors that scare me

In sixth grade, we had to come up with a packaging scheme that could protect an egg when dropped from the top of our school. That was a valuable lesson

Hi Ms Pixie: No upcharge for that, assuming the tolex is the same price--a $20 difference at most. Grill cloth is either brown or black.

Gee, no one told me I could change colors, I really wanted red white and blue....! Nah...looks great and will match the palamino amp....Maybe I just discovered a way to stretch out the weekends....everyone knows time stands still waiting for gear

Good advertising for you Jer, this thread has had close to 2000 hits....be looking for a heck of a discount on one of them fine looking guits !

Hey Dan, cream and brown is the bees knees

I'm going to build a guitar, brown mahogany with cream TV P90s...should be a nice match.

P.S. 1832 of those hits belong to you

dan P · October 22nd, 2009, 08:08 PM

...worth a try...

Thanks Jer !

hey dan, do you think when it arrives you might be able to record it a little bit? I'm thinking of buying one too but I want to hear what it sounds like. I'd SUPER appreciate it!!!

ms pixie riot: I do believe that Mugsy has some good sound clips on his site, just go here and take a look.
http://www.delisleguitar.com/index.p.../56-amplifiers
Scroll partway down the page and there are 3 clips of his smaller 5 Watt amp. The clips are labeled "Dirty Nickel".

Yep! I listened to those but I really want to hear the 15, so I'm hoping if I bat my eyelashes all pretty at Dan he might give me some clips. ;D

mugsy · October 23rd, 2009, 12:31 PM

I'm behind on clips. I'm sorry about that

My recording gear is at home. Since I set up/mic the amps in the family room, I have to coordinate with the wife and baby. I'll see about scheduling a "session."

ms pixie riot: I also just recieved one of Mugsy's fantastic 15P amps. Got mine in a 2 piece unit. Just bought the head as I have my own cabs I want to run it through first. I just bought a digital recorder and am learning some of the user functions before making any clips. Might get to it next week.

I bought a Tascam DR something hoping it would do the trick: Just pop it my pocket, take it to the shop, and everybody is happy. It didn't quite work out that way. I'm back to using a tube condenser mic and recording to a console in a separate room. It takes a little more time to set up, but I like the results a lot more. I can also hear how things are sounding through the monitors without dumping mp3s on a computer first. I'm so old fashioned

workknot · October 23rd, 2009, 02:05 PM

Mugsy: I bought the Tascam DR-07 and it works relativly easy. Did have a bit of a struggle getting the MP3s on the computer but did work it out. Mine also has a headset jack that most MP3 players earbuds will plug into. The few things I have done with it is so far are OK for my needs.

rothnroll · October 23rd, 2009, 02:24 PM

That looks really cool. I need to not visit here so often. Everytime I do i see a new piece of gear I want.
I would also like to hear some clips of the 15

mugsy · October 23rd, 2009, 02:26 PM

That's what I bought. A headset jack...you must have read the instructions

It is a neat little device. It's amazing what they can squeeze into small packages. The Tascam will be in my pocket at the upcoming Black Crowes show.

ms pixie riot · October 23rd, 2009, 02:48 PM

Hey if you BOTH record clips I'll have lots of material to listen to.

In talking with my Tommy, essentially what he's said is even if it's more expensive, if I decide this is THE amp with the sound I have to have, we'll spend the money on it. Like with my guitar, he's stressing that I should have whatever feels right for me, and that I have good instincts on this.

Sooooo I just need to be patient and wait for clips. Patient. me. Yeah right. :P

mugsy · October 23rd, 2009, 02:50 PM

Don't you have a 5129? I have one of those, too. I can use it to record.
