Dunlop 35th Anniversary EVH FX pedals:

[DLR Bridge]

Now this is the kind of crap that annoys me. Ed's 35th Anniversary pedals are $80 more than the usual ones. All because they have a different franken-stripe scheme? Those things are pricey to begin with, so that's just ridiculous.

"It's what I use!"

Uh-huh...since just about when, exactly?









Ed's credibility as a pitchman ranks right up there with the guy selling cars with leaky transmissions stuffed with sawdust at a light-bulb lot on your local Martin Luther King Boulevard. Just say no, folks.

"An innovative, and tour necessary world-compatible switch-mode power supply and advanced design provide stadium levels of explosive tonality."

World-compatible power supply? It only has to work in the States and Cabo. And I doubt that Mike will ever see a stadium from the stage as long as he's with Hagar.

A suggestion Mike......"SPEAK INTO THE MICROPHONE"

And the EVH stuff? Sells like crazy & makes him a ton of loot.....not that I'm gonna shell out extra cabbage for a "different kind of paint job"

Pretty underwhelming...

[Hardrock69]

Yeah....it IS all underwhelming....

I just posted it to post some dreck for you all to giggle at.

No, I mean even the head just looks meh, too!

[Matt White]

I thought the same thing...perfect for Mike...."underwhelming" might the MO of his life!

[Coyote]

Stick with the Ampegs, Mike...

You really can't go wrong with a couple of SVTs...

[Nitro Express]

There are so many good bass amps out there now. The good ol SVT is great but you can get the sound out of preamps and solid state power amps now. I have a rack full of power amps and a rack of preamps and effects. I use those two boxes for everything. I find myself using heads less and less.

[Hardrock69]

When one has the money to own any sort of bass amp on earth, why do something like that with a third-rate amp manufacturer?

No need for you guys to mention they are not that bad, and perhaps not.

But the last time I even considered owning a sleavey was in 1978, and it was only because I want to at least own an amp, and there was a beat-to-shit sleavey Classic 2 X 12 in a small mom-and-pop music store in Tacoma for 80 bucks. I put 20 bucks down on it, then moved away from the NW.

Oh well. Mikey can do what he wants.

Only Peavey I'd look at might be the 6505 cab. That sounded pretty decent.
