Ontopic String's and Adi's gear & pedal thread

Well they're Pro-Line starting with the 3 Pro tube mosfet hybrid head was pretty Innovative in the 1990s. But the first issuance of that 3 Pro head was horrible. The Mosfets over drove and nobody was able to troubleshoot the issue for several years.

True but other companies were already doing that then too. SWR and Peavey to name a couple.

What's a Milkman (half & half)?
I gather a hybrid head. Just never heard of it.

Bassman case, layout, look.

"Creamy distortion"? Lol.

Maybe it pleases the wife while we're at work.

Is it new?
Looks like it'll fit nicely on top of my new (classic) rumble cab.
Might have to look for reviews.

Never heard of it before. I'd assume another one-man shop or small maker type deal.

Ooh. I thought it was a Fender head as it popped up when I searched fender bassman amps. $1,299.00.
And it does say creamy tone in the description.

Boutiquey fendery stuff.

All the highbrow extras. Cloth wire, carbon comp resistors, etc.

You can get a Dairy Air for $1900 and it's only $600-700 more for a speaker to plug it into.

If I gotta pay $1900 for some der·ri·ère it better be damn good. And I'm not paying $600-700 for it to peg me.

Yeah that's a tube preamp with a solid state Poweramp. For $1,900 I can get a real tube amp

The Dairy Air is 30watt all tube. Guitar amp. Could handle bass for recording or coffeeshop stuff.

Boy that was some Darth level not reading on my part I'll tell you what

 

[Strings]

I'll stick with my hartke and fender amps for now.
I'm sure you're all relieved to know that.

@Strings arrived in the mail!
TI Acoustacore™ have a phosphor bronze wind on a nylon core. Smashing! They slap like butter. No fret noise.
I left the shitty™ phosphor bronze B on because frankly it's the only B string which meets the volume of the other @Strings either unplugged or plugged in.

I may splurge and buy a whole set of D'adarrio phosphor bronze soft @Strings just for the B, $26.95 plus shipping.
I tried them on a Breedlove and they sound really good and don't generate fret noise.

 

[nukes]

Best $50 I've spent in a long while.
Meanwhile, these nylon core might take a week to tune.
