Im looking for a way to retrofit reverb into my RM20bp and need some feedback on my crazy ideas before I spend any money. So far the my solution is to hook up a reverb pedal to the FX loop with a ebtech line shifter and use the DC from the fan to power it. Will this work?

Can anyone tell me if the boost is in fact a tube boost and what tube is used?

1. The 12at7 seems like an obvious choice. Ill try it 3. I believe its the rm50 boost tat maxes the volume. My guess is that the fx loop tube (V2) is the tube boost. A 12at7 could be a good choice there too. 4. as anyone sucessfully powered fx from this? 5. So theoretical I could record the...

Hi, Ive searched the internet extensively and still have a few question for experienced RM20 owners. 1. The phase inverter socket is labelled 12ax7. Is it recommended and what would be the effect of putting a 12at7 in there? 2. Is the FX loop -10db for stomp boxes or +4 for rack units? 3...

Randall sent some thumbscews with the blank plates. Now I only use my trusty blackface module

I had a Gmajor and it died twice on me. The last time I had it fixed then sold it. I think these units have spotty reliabilty. My old Digitech TSR-24 is 3 times older and hasnt missed a beat

When Im not using my wireless I use a Canare GS6 with G+h ends. It sounds great and is trouble free.

Try calling them. I bought some blank faceplates from them with some thumb screws and they weren't even listed.

JJ's . They are the only ones I know that will work.

These two fuses had me stumped before too. It seems like every time I take the amp out of its chassis some of the covering gets pulled out. Ive resorted to cutting the loose bits off.

Currently im using a pair of 6v6's. When turned up the tubes compress the sound allot. I usually set it just before the compression begins. I also bias them on the cool side so I guess im running about 25-30 watts.

It worked! I had a great night and no problems with the RM100. Heres Proof :) Alittle blues http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Kd9H32WUA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_MyJMUVbLQ

I will use the amp for my gig. I always have my Crate powerblock nearby if I have any trouble.

The last time I had this amp break down I had to take it to a tech. It seems he had left a 2" long stick of solder inside the amp to bounce around freely. I removed the stick of solder and the amp has be fine ever since. I can only speculate how this could cause my trouble but it is the only...
