Re: NAD: Mesa Boogie Electra Dyne Head

How do the channels work, again? Are the knob settings shared between the two channels? And reverb is only on the clean?

Re: NAD: Mesa Boogie Electra Dyne Head

These were cool. Aimed to be American clean and a British drive sound in one, right?

The previous pickup was comically high-output. I love me a grunty P-90, but this shat the front end of anything I plugged it into.

Re: YouTube goodness

Reinforcing my belief that speaker, preamp and then power section are the most influential elements of an amp. Also reinforcing how good that 100W Jensen Blackbird sounds. https://youtu.be/XV0HlT6Q8GM?si=d9yAa7VqNGO564_w Which makes sense to me as a speaker has its own EQ curve (frequency response)...

Right on! Well let me give it some thought. I could send a template.
Any interest in making chassis’ at all btw??
Cool cool. Let me know, always have plenty of off cuts available.

By chassis do you mean car chassis?
Commercial aircraft, I presume.

It’s been there for years. And years.

Does anyone know anything about it?
Interesting. Reckon it's an export model? Can't be too many floating around.

Robin Trower says it means more tone. Can't say I'm a fan of his though.
James Tyler must think the same.

This annoys me as well. Specifically Strymon Flint. Its lack of MIDI capability too.
