deadastronaut Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 A bit of frivolity here, but: While editing Spider V patches, I noticed that, to my surprise, the amp setting on the "Welcome to the Jungle" preset wasn't a JCM800 or Plexi, it was the famous L6 Chemical X. That, of course, brought to mind stories the legendary Marshall that everybody loved at S.I.R. Studios in the ’80s, the one that Slash notably tried to steal. It would seem to follow, then, that Chemical X is that 100-watt Marshall Super Tremolo 1959T, modded out by Tim Caswell of S.I.R. and subsequently Studio Electronics. I need to check if tremolo is one of the built-in effects on that patch, which would (kinda?) seal it. Anyway, an OCD sufferer's soliloquy.

kraid Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Well, based on what you said I think Line 6 could have got the Chemical X name from "Caswell #39", so I think you got it dude! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraid Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 More speculation, the Line 6 description says Chemical X has now the X-27 ingredient, can this be like X=10, 10+27, Caswell mod. #37?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
