Ask lang ako about sa pedal. Yung pitchblack tuner ko kasi napansin ko nung jam namin lowbatt na sya, ang pinagtataka ko eh nakaplug in naman sya lagi sa chain ko pero ayaw nung tinry ko mag tono. Bali may battery rin sya nung time na yun.

Next day tinanggal ko yung battery and then nilagay ko ulit sya sa chain ko ayaw na gumana.
I also tried na sya lang yung nakasaksak tinanggal ko yung ibang effects ko ayaw parin.

Any suggestions kung pano ayusin? Or kung may kilala kayo na pwede magrepair ng pedal?

Thanks

Well, in a different perspective, mas long lasting na ang switchcraft kumpara sa lesser available options na pwede masira ulit at magrequire ng replacement.

Otherwise, pasyal ka na lang sa SM Dasma. Last time I saw, madami available sa Lazer at JB.

Sa mga may experience using a vox ac15, how well do they take overdrive and distortion pedals? I've been reading that the normal channel is okay with pedals daw.

May AC15 Handwired ako dati. Yung Normal channel niya has a "bright on/off" switch pero walang EQ. Yung Top Boost channel naman niya ay may "always on" na bright cap, and a Treble&Bass EQ. What I did with my amp, I modded the Top Boost channel para switchable na on and off yung bright cap niya like the Normal channel.

Sa experience ko, nagustuhan ko sya with the bright cap off, tapos may flexibility ako nung EQ (treble and bass). Mas hindi piercing ang treble at low volumes and mas okay tumanggap ng high gain pedals.

Occasionally, I would tun the bright cap on if I miss the classic Vox chime ang jangle.  :-)

Here's Dan and Mick to help you out:

I don't own an AC15 pero meron akong Vox AV30 (hybrid tube amp) na merong AC15 Normal Channel voicing. Ok naman sya with pedals.  :)

I hope you guys can help me out. I recently got a Squier Telecaster Custom VM. The output/volume of the neck and the bridge are mismatched. There is a huge drop in volume when I switch to the neck position. Any ideas on how to work around this issue? Im not sure what pots are installed but as far as I know the guitar is all stock. Nothing was replaced or upgraded aside from it being shielded.

try to play with the pickup height... if the issue persists, ang problema na dyan ay electronic wiring. i-check yun solder ng mga wires o may problema ang pots.

I thought about that, but I doubt that it would solve the issue. Masyado talaga mahina. Thank you for the input. Would you know what pots are installed here or what pots do I need? The guy that I got it from said that there is no wiring issue. Kakadala lang daw niya sa luthier.

Hi Philmusic, question lang. do you know someone who knows how to fix tube amps? I'm experiencing microphonic tubes and have no idea on repairing/fixing this. If you can recommend someone pls let me know or if you happened to know how to fix this, can you teach me? thanks

If preamp tubes lang naman yan bro, easy to replace naman yan, basta same tube, I've done it myself after mang Raul's recommendation. You can try contacting him, sadly nadelete ko yung number niya nung nagreset ako ng phone. You can contact him through fb - Raul Quesada.
