Steve Haynie Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 The scratched film effect is unnecessary. The out of focus effect was even more unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubs_42 Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 That is the sound I want. I sure don't need 100 watts of it, but I wish my little Class 5 was about 12 or 15 watts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost reminds me of the overplayed Rodriguez/Tarantino retro cinematic shtick. A little goes a L O N G way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redline Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Meh. When Rick did the mods, he put the master volume on the back panel for good reason. The faceplate just looks stupid now. You really adjust your pre-amp all through the show? Not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More headroom, more volume, more flexibility...still without making my ears ring (usually).

His classmates had a field day with that one. Many years ago, I once was in a college Psychology course, where one day we had a 'word association' game in class using Psychology terms, and the class was split into two sides to make it competitive. One female student was given the word 'oral', and the associated word the instructor (who was also female, BTW) was looking for to complete that term was 'stage'. That's not what the female student said, though. Moral: you don't need modern technology to make a 'Freudian slip'. P.S.: This happened in the very early '80's, so it's not likely that the current events of the time influenced the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studio Instrument Rental is still around, and Tim Caswell, who designed the modification, is still around too, though he left SIR in the mid 80s. I think he actually put out a #39 amplifier for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubs_42 Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 Yes, we all know its "In the hands and the heart" and not int he gear. Not only did Slash use the amp but that amp was rented more than any other amp in the lineup for a long time. Could it be cloned? Maybe, but sometimes those old amps have it and sometimes they don't.

I think he actually put out a #39 amplifier for a while. Well, Caswell had the advantage of the integral Tremolo circuit in that particular head, which made his modification a bit easier to execute. After reading accounts of what he actually did to #39, I don't think it was anything really exotic or voodoo-centric. In fact, Marshall's own factory mods to Randy Rhoads' custom heads followed a similar preamp architecture IIRC. What Caswell did with #39 that might have made it sound slightly different from similarly modded Marshalls was his experimentation with various cap values. Lynch has always been a footnote in the historical timeline of #39, but as others here have mentioned (via Michael Wagener himself), multiple Laney and Marshall amp heads, plus a pedestrian Fostex 4-track were employed to build his holy grail tone on ULAK. So, if you're interested, here's one distillation: SIR #39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
