    NGD: 594 Singlecut

    My SC 594 is my favourite guitar, and I have a lot of guitars! It would be the last to sell if I had to for some reason! Love it! Mine is a McCarty burst too. Love that finish! Yours is lovely 👍 Here is my SC, and another McBurst for good measure. And my Rosewood neck McCarty…

    HDRX20, can it get EVH, early 80s metal sounds?

    I have been thinking about getting a Hot Mod V2 for my HDRX20 to pump up the gain. According to their site, the reverse wired version works in the amp. https://legendarytones.com/hot-mod-v2e-the-ultimate-marshall-2203-2204-high-gain-plug-in-tube-modification-module/

    HDRX20, can it get EVH, early 80s metal sounds?

    I have an HDRX20. I would say the modifications done to the original Hendrix amp that this amp is based on make the amp softer, leaning more towards a JTM45 than a plexi. Not really a brown sound/VH amp to me.

    Played it for a hot min , HDRX20

    I am loving mine. I sold my Dr Z EMS after about 10 days, and the EMS is no slouch!

    Hdrx20- NAD and first tube amp! Attenuator help

    I got a previous version of the Audiostorm Reactive Load Hotbox attenuator that is really good. I got it through Reverb (I live in Canada, they are in the UK.) https://audiostorm.uk/product/hotbox-130/ On a side note, I got the HDRX 20 a few weeks back too, and it is such a great amp! The...

    Hence why I put in the title "Just for Fun".

    HDRX 20 (non-scientific) Decibel Levels - Just for Fun

    I did one meter as that is what all the measurments I’ve ever seen are measured at. No other reason that that.

    Yeah, I'll spam you with HDRX 20 sounds - this time humbuckers, and Horsemeat!

    I pretty much expect that a Plexi type amp needs to have some volume to sound good. I haven’t come across one that doesn’t sound thin and fizzy when played quietly. Gotta get the master at least above 2.5 or nothing but thin, weedy tones. HDRX amps are not bedroom amps in the slightest.

    HDRX 20 (non-scientific) Decibel Levels - Just for Fun

    I find it makes me somewhat nauseous when stuff gets that loud. I wore hearing protection during all but the first part with everything at noon.

    HDRX 20 (non-scientific) Decibel Levels - Just for Fun

    Update: I redid measurements with the decibel meter I forgot I had at 1m. In dBA weighted mode. All controls set at noon was measured from 110 dB. Fairly clean tone overall. I didn’t touch the eq knobs, just volumes. Master at noon, Treble and Bass volumes at 8/10. 113 dB. Master, Treble and...

    HDRX 20 (non-scientific) Decibel Levels - Just for Fun

    Update in post 2 with proper measurements. So I used one of those little signs you see in the back of YouTube videos to measure how loud my HDRX 20 is out of a single 1x12 open back cab with an Alnico Cream. Yes, this is not scientific at all, but some people may find it interesting. The...
