No prob Mark. Vox ad120vt modeling amps, and most other Vox modelers usually have blue diamond grill cloth unless the cabs were customized by someone like Dr. Vox at Northcoast Music. Then they'd probably have the traditional brown weave grill cloth.

Brian May usually plays AC30's. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if he was playing a couple of the new Brian May Limited Edition AC30's that were introduced at NAMM.

Ahhh, all is back to normal. The Pyramids went back on the the 370/12 last night. That coupled with the Janglebox through the Vox AC30 and, well, nirvana once again. That sound is so distinct. Jingle, jangle, ping!!!

Funny...Just last night, for the first time in my life, I put a set of Rickenbacker Rounds on my 370/12. Tonight I'll be replacing them with my fave Pyramids. The sound, to me at least, isn't even close. If you want 60's, Beatles, Byrds/McGuinn, it's Pyramids all the way. I've always wanted to try ...

There isn't a better stomp compressor out there. My Ric 370/12 never sounded so good. Besides, Roger McGuinn uses one and swears by them. Nuff said. My .02.

That's all I play through also. What a great amp. I also use an attenuator (THD Hotplate) with mine as to be able to play at lesser volumes while still getting that creamy overdriven sound when I need it. An AC30 on 3-4 will blow you and your family away!
I agree with Greg. An AC30 with a ...

Janglebox Review - Incredible!!!!!!

Well, after Fedex tried to drop off three times (no one home to sign for the package) I finally got it today. WOW, WOW, and WOW!!!! Steve - you did an incredible job with this compressor. I plugged my 370/12 into it and started with MTM, EMH, TTT, etc. It DEFINATELY nails the Byrds/McGuinn sound ...

Thanks a million Steve! Can't wait! I'll definately give you a review after I test it out. I plan on running it two ways. Through my AC30 and through my Tonelab for direct recording.
I'm sure all "Janglebox waiters" will be happy with the performance of the box. If it's good enough for McGuinn ...

Mr. Hall, if I may ask, am I assuming then from your response that it will be quite awhile before my store the HOG sees any of these? Are we talking weeks, months??
