Love the amp, love the guitar, and I want to love that Flashback X4 too. What's the deal with it?

Sweet rig dots - what's the dinky blue pedal on the top left? Forgotten the name of the company, but I like their looper...

While I'm here, here's my "Home alone for the weekend so drag gear downstairs" rig du jour:

MJT tele > BYOC Superfuzz (SO good) > Fredric Utility Perk (SO SO good) > Soul Food > Superego with a Nobels trem in the loop > El Capistan (MY FAVOURITE PEDAL AND I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY) > PRRI.

LURKING BEHIND THE SCENES: Phase 45, about to replace the trem in the Superego loop. Also our new kitten Purdy HIYA PURDY.

that's a hotone choir chorus pedal. if all you need is a mono chorus that gives you the basics (speed, depth, and level), it's great for that.

dig that shell pank!

pretty sure this was my bad in trying to share too much power, though i still need to get everything connected properly at full volume before i will know for sure. i didn't have the x4 at rehearsal last week, but i thought i had everything sorted before the gig with all the pedals rightly powered, but shit went sideways after a couple minutes. i may need to pull the modded muff until i can get a bigger psu as that's the only pedal that i currently don't have an immediate need for. it needs some repair anyway...

Long time no post (lazy AF), but made a picture of my current rig as I wanted to share my happiness, especially with the JM4 i picked up last Sunday.
Already switched the Greenback out for a Blue Bulldog (got it for cheap).

Image

Signal chain: Tuner > Diamond Compressor > 1976 LPB-2 (found this at a flea market) > Menatone Foxy Brown OD > Way Huge Aqua-Puss > Way Huge blue hippo Chorus > Malekko Bright 300 Delay

Guitars ATM are a Gibson Custom Shop LP Special 1960RI and my trusted 1978 Mustang (which I posted aaaaages ago, can post pics if smbd wants to see this one again)…

Thinking of switching from lurking to posting again, haha.

Nice rig! Is that the 1987 or 1959? What speakers do you have in the 2x12?

It is brilliant indeed, I'm already addicted to the 'Vox chime' - the JMI is far far better than the (non-handwired) Vox AC4 I used before as bedroom/recording-amp. I just sold my band rig, it was a Orange AD30TC + Orange 212 cab - don't miss it at all.

Concerning the Diamond Compressor: It sounds really nice, I have it for two years now and I hardly ever turn it off. The compression never sounds un-musical to me, even on high compression levels. The EQ knob is useful as well and very precise (at 12 o' clock it is flattened, btw).
Ohh, and it has plenty of volume to boost tube amps!
All in all just a lovely pedal - I had a vintage MXR comp from the 70s first but sold it after getting the Diamond, it is just more versatile…

I totally agree. I am big fan of this compressor.
