why Les Pauls are so easy to setup for great action, and
Stratocasters are the king of fret buzz (5th/6th), no matter the fret leveling or setup?
There has to be a reason, which I believe is down to bridge geometry or string length.
Comments?
Got my Blackheart 5W head yesterday. This is a smash hit of an amp.
I have 2 modified, re-tubed Valve Jrs, and this amp blows them away- even with stock Chinese tubes.

Does anyone make a wood head cabinet kit that you can glue the wood together yourself?
Basically, precut unfinished cab pieces with hardware.

Anyone have a lower cost solution for 60Hz hum than this?
I have 4 amps running at the same time and the only way to stop the

Any of you techies have any opinions about turning off the amps?
Is it better to turn off the mains with the amp OFF standby, or to go to standby, then off. I would think that turning directly off would discharge the filter caps faster, but don't know if this is good for a long life, or letting...
