    RM20 reverb

    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?

    Loving my new RM20BP and have some questions

    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...

    Loving my new RM20BP and have some questions

    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...

    Broke G-Major $158?

    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

    Cables

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

    What power tubes are you guys running in your RM50s/RM100s?

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

    Please Help Rm100 dead

    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.

    What power tubes are you guys running in your RM50s/RM100s?

    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.

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

    RM100 is cutting out

    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...

    RM100 is cutting out

    Ive cleaned the contact on the module and the amp still cuts out. Ive taken the amp apart to have a visual and it shows nothing obvious. I am running out of ideas.

    Alas I live in a small secluded town. The nearest city (Vancouver) doesn't even have a store that stocks MTS.

    RM100 is cutting out

    I did move the module into another slot and it was the same. The tubes in the module were swapped and made no difference. The contact that the module could be the problem. I inspected it and it looks slightly corroded. It is also a very old module. What can I do to clean the contacts? Would...

    RM100 is cutting out

    I only have one module so I cant eliminate it as being the possible problem. I have tried other guitar and speaker cables also. I also plunged directly into the series fx return and got sound so I suppose that eliminates the power section as being the problem. Ive got a gig at a hall on Saturday...

    RM100 is cutting out

    Been having some trouble with my RM100. It cuts out when I play the strings hard. I have tried to troubleshoot the problem by swapping tubes and I still have the problem. I made a short video to better show the problem. It seems that when I put it into standby and then back to play the sound...
