    Excellent! I won't however be updating my unit until the rest of you test it real good for me :D -Max

    I love my JTV 59 also. For me, the neck is perfect and the whole guitar just feels right to me. I just picked up a used JTV 69 for $450 last night. It was too good of a deal to pass up. Funny thing is the guy I bought it from is a new member in the band that our current singer left about a year ago. -Max

    It appears that you have proven that the noise is coming from your guitar and not the HD500. Are you playing something like a Stratocaster with single coil pickups by any chance? Single coil pickups are so good at picking up noise and hum that someone went and incented the humbucking pickup. I found that at bar gigs you really have to turn off any neon signs that are too close to the stage if anybody in the band uses single coil pickups. -Max

    Gotta have something for the sub woofer to reproduce right? -Max

    We often run a send from the bass to the P.A. We really don't want to have to use massive stage volume to fill the room with sound. -Max

    If I remember right Clapton's Layla record was recorded using Fender tweed champ amps for the guitars. I think they got some good tones on that record. -Max

    It might be time for us to purchase 2 L3 and one L3s! -Max

    I don't think he is talking about us. Do you guys make costumes? (check the spelling in the title). -Max

    I did just that the other day when recording some guitar parts for a demo. I had our other guitarist just hook his pedal board into the input of my HD500 for recording. It let him use his overdrive pedals but still go direct to the recorder. It worked great! -Max

    It was also described by many when it came out as sounding like a can of bees. -Max

    It is in the setup menu. Hold down the view and then scroll. I think it might be the 8th setup menu. -Max

    If I didn't read these forums daily I probably would have been fooled by the email. -Max

    We ran a test with an L2 on Saturday. It was a Fender Jazz bass into a PODHD500 set to the ampeg flip top model into the L2m. We found that it was able to get quite loud and I did not hear the speakers farting out. In the end my wife decided that if she could get the L3t with the mixer inputs that she could probably run her bass straight into a mixer channel and get a sound that she would be happy with. It was really punchy (could be due to the amount of power it has). We play 60s and 70s classic rock in mostly small bars and clubs, so we don't need massive amounts of volume. -Max

    It would have been nice to hear some non-metal guitar playing on those vintage amps. That style of playing probably doesn't do some of those vintage amps justice. -Max

    Leesteel, Necks are such a personal thing on guitars. For me the JTV 59 has the best feeling neck of any guitar I have owned. I have always been more comfortable on a Les Paul neck than a strat neck though. -Max

    I work in software development and I don't find this odd at all. The development team that writes the code is probably not huge and the testing team needs time to test and are probably not huge either. They probably just don't have a large enough team to do all the work concurrently. -Max

    I don't use any amp model with the JTV variax acoustic tones. If I remember right I use the tube compressor and the studio EQ and that is it. I think it sounds great through my L2 speaker and it also sits well in a mix with the band. -Max

    BigBob, not sure about feedback as I don't use it. I can't imagine that it wouldn't unless you are using a Stagesourse speaker with feedback suppression turned on. -Max

    I have the HD500 also, but I would not have rushed out and updated firmware until a month or so after release. There needs to be a little time for any bugs to get worked out. -Max

    Hmm maybe I just need new shoes :D -Max

    I had heard that peavey amp described as sounding a like a can of bees. I would expect that it would have had a decent amount of gain on tap. -Max

    Leesteel. I have triggered the looper in the middle of a song before also. I will try the rubber band suggestion for sure. I do use the looper function when learning a songs. I can loop the rhythm and then practice the solo over that. -Max

    Put a tube screamer in front of the amp with no drive and just use the volume of the tube screamer to goose the front end of the amp. It works wonders for a lot of the amps. -Max

    I am selling a couple of amps but there are few tube amps I own that I won't let go of. I don't plan to gig with them anymore though. -Max

    If it were recessed far enough it would be good, but I never missed having power switches on my stomp boxes either. I had to unplug every single one of them to keep the batteries from dying. -Max
