Octave pedal now re-homed.

I'm selling my Marshall DSL50. It was bought new just over a year ago and is still in perfect condition. Recently re-valved and biased with JJ E34Ls. Looking for 500.

I have a Boss OC-3 Polyphonic Octave pedal that I'm no longer using. Perfect Condition. 90 new, looking for 45.

I have a Diago Showman pedalboard lying around doing nothing - aside from being a makeshift seat during practices. It's in near perfect condition. Pedalboards, Pedal Board Cases, Effects Pedal Power Supplies and the Finest Hand-built British Guitar Amplifiers by Diago - Diago Showman Pedalboard Looking for 70 (they're 130 new).

It was something like that. Robbo had his hand slashed and thus couldn't play so Gary was brought in.

I've heard that it was a heart attack but that hasn't been confirmed by any other source yet. Can't believe this news.

Clicky for bigger picture...!

I think you're confusing voltage and current. Your first example mentions "high current" which implicitly means "low voltage" (P = IV), i.e. cold biased or reducing the voltage across the valves.

Biasing basically means altering the voltage across the valves in your amp. Each amp will have a specific biasing range, e.g. my 50W Vintage Modern likes its valves between 44 to 48 mV. Biasing an amp "hot" means increasing the voltage above the recommended range. I think this means that the sound will break up (distort) quicker but the side effect of this is your valves will also die quicker. Biasing the amp "cold" means decreasing the voltage below the recommended range. As the inverse of hot, this will smooth out your sound and make valves last longer. Perhaps obviously, too hot or too cold will make your amp sound like arse... Although, some [strange] people quite like this! I believe the grading above describes the break up of the tube. I can't remember whether A grade break up first or last but I'm pretty sure that's what the spectrum illustrates.

Ah yes, I seem to have deleted them... Restored (slightly smaller than normal) from Google's cache... Will get higher res photo this evening.

Bump again. Excellent Christmas present possibly.

Bump. Would make an excellent Christmas present for someone who is new to guitar!

Will accept 55.
