Oh trust me, I shall. I'm gonna replace the speakers with new Celestions in a month or so. Just to make sure the sound is reaching its 'potential.'

Haha, if you think that speaker combo is good, then I'll trust your word, instead of just two of the G12s like I planned on it.
I was thinking more of a Camo grille. how about you?
Edit: if anyone could tell me the material the grille cloth is made out of, I'd worship your feet.

Thanks a ton guys. I have my hopes up for this amp.

(I did it because of my family history; you guys know as well as anyone should that I love to drink. Just. Can't).
I'm praying its condition is only bad on the outside.

I did it partially FOR someone, as well. I just didn't need the feel to make this a discussion on it.
John: Ask any of my close friends: I was trying to catch you online today to thank you for the link, and to tell you that I bought the fucker. Seriously man, I REALLY appreciate it.
Btw, that was a low blow, Dave.

pfft... lemme guess... you met a really hot sxe chick that wouldnt even hold your hand unless you sobered up?
i just think it's silly to do it for any other reason than for yourself. saying you love to drink, you just can't... then you have a bunch of sxe pride stuff up like it means a lot to you. kinda sketchy that's all.

Hey, its cool
If I could have known better before I bought the Shockwave, I would have. So to know that I prevented someone else from buying the Shockwave in favour of something better, that brings joy to my heart.

Actually no, her mom was an alcoholic. And mind you it was 6am when I wrote that, and I'm still taking muscle relaxers for the car accident that I just realized I didn't tell you guys about.
Well, seriously, I loved it when I did it. But now that I've sworn it all off, I feel a sense of pride and all that junk. Practicing self control. And what I meant by family history is the fact that alot of my family has turned to drugs and alcohol, and I don't want to end up like them. Just a bunch of stuff that I sat down and thought about. Think what you want, but I get made fun of for it, so its not like its a "scene" or "popularity" thing.

You really don't have to take a blood sworn oath before all the world or a girl if you don't want to end up like those other people you mentioned. That's what Emo kids do and I know you don't want to be called Emo. I fear Emo may be slowly poisoning you though, but lets leave that for the RTT.
If you don't want to drink or do drugs then just don't do them. End. You don't need any reason like a girl, family, sxe, or other crap to be clean, becasue no one should care more then you about you. You talk like you just got out of rehab and if that was the case I would understand needing an exterior reason to remain clean, but I know thats not the case. Its a choice and an easy one to make for most people. Either way, I think its great that you are a clean dude but your reasons are frustratingly flawed.
If you want pride then try something like not breathing air anymore and I'll be impressed

Flawed to others, but I know my motives. Its not some "blood oath," its one of those "I feel the need to start clean and stop taking these risks" type of things. I swore it all off, and then got into being sXe BY MYSELF, I might add. Like I said, I didn't do it as a motive to fit in.
And this emo discussion is dead. I don't dress it, I don't act it, and I don't live it. Everyone bitches, its called a habit of expression. Some people bottle up their anger because thats what they know to do. You are brought up a certain way, and thats how you act. Unfortunately somewhere along the line, thats how I ended up, and I'm sorry thats not to your liking. Personally I hate it too, but I dont care. That doesn't make me "emo."

Yeah, out of nowhere the thing goes WHUBWHUBWHUB, and he swears up and down it isn't because he's running it through a bass cab.
Apparently it had always done that, but he didn't have the courtesy to tell ME that. So. Yeah, he hates it now.

Cool to know actually. Thanks. I feel like you are not BSing me for once with this post.
As for Holland's Crate making odd sounds? SS amps can heat up to a point they will make fucked up sounds. The reason why is the silicone componants ( semi conductors ) can only operate correctly until they are heated to a certain temperature and then they behave drastically different then tube technology. Once heated to a point they become just like a wire conductor with no resistance... for a short period of time. By that time 3 things will happen. The componant will cool and perform correctly but over time the malfunction temperature will lower as its molecular structures weaken with age and heat. If the circuit is designed with a fail save a backup circuit will take the load or blow a fuse. Last, if the part has aged so long with years of cyclic heat stress it will "open" the componant ( it will be like it was never there ) and the magic smoke will escape from the solid state componant forever.
Keep in mind that SS amps also need capacitor checks and refits from time to time just like tube amps. A bad cap can cause the same problem as a bad transistor, diode, or IC SS componant. It only takes one part going bad to ruin the tone in a good amp.

I missed the beginning of this thread. Is it about amps or about Dissection being emo? I think, sad to say, we have to separate the two topics of discussion. Maybe someday Dissection will create a thread called 'Hey Dave, guess who just bought an emo?', and the guesses will come flooding in, but until that day let's talk about amps. Or emo. Just not both at the same time.
And especially not being straight edge.

That's not typical of a Shockwave. John Holland needs to keep his pecker out of his amps. I know how they do in Luziany.

Hm. Thanks man.
As for John, he's also made the claim that the advertised 350 watts is when you are running it at 2 ohms, not the normal 4. I haven't checked it out, so really, I'm only passing this on.
