Well, not literally 300 decibles... i know 85 make you deaf. On my map it says 300 decibles, its why i said it

" probaly like 300 decibles on my amp"I think you are mistaken. Check out this link from betterhearing.org
-
Nvm, its only 60 dB. 300 is how much Hz my guitar has to be able to take with out getting fried, last time i had to change the transducer!
-
LMAO! Purple, I'm dying here! Watts...you mean watts! 300 decibals would probably implode your eyeballs...eardrums having long ago departed company. 150 dB would cause instant hearing damage if exposed for any amount of time. 85 dB would take an hour or so to cause any kind of damage...and it would most likely not be permanent.
-
possibly you are confusing an actual volume control with a gain control.
-
I know, i mis-read it, damn amp was made in the '70's! I did tweak it a litte, It's a Marshal amp. How come last time it fried my transducer!?
-
ummmm.... are you talking about the imput impedence now? that would be ohms, not Hz
-
My guitar is in Hz, Ohms is resistance. It can has any power.
-
Input impedence on a 70's Marshall is about 1 Meg. (1,000 K-ohms for all you wise-guys.)It has transformers, but no transducers (unless it's a combo...because, technically, a speaker is a transducer)
-
Hz represents frequencyOhms represents DC resistance and/or AC impedence... similar concepts but things get more dynamic in AC.the input device and the input of the amplifier need to be impedence matched.
-
Pick-ups are transducers as well. I tweaked it to have more power and it friend it. Do i have to upgrade my guitar?
-
I "tweaked" my guitar with an on-board pre-amp... that put my amplifier at some risk.Not sure how much you could tweak you pickups to produce that much more power.
-
I was talking about your amp...you want the output impedence of the signal source at no more than 1/10th the input impedence of the amp. (This is a guitar amp, folks.) No problem because most stock Pickups vary from about 5k (single-coil) to 8-15k (humbuckers).
-
I think i have to change it then. My amp give weird frequencies. when i start it up it goes from 10ohms to like 100ohm then to something else. It has low voltage and low power. I tweaked the input of my guitar so it can last longer, but after the mid pick-up fails. if i try to play the solo for stairway to heaven(only for this song) My amp can't handle it. Should i push output on my amp to 120?
-
120 what?
-
Volts. This amp is different than my others.
-
kripes... I may have a poor memory in my old age but...I have a background in both pro-audio and distributed audio not to mention a number of years paying guitar in bands.After all that, you're still confusing me lol
-
OK...I think I get it. Must be an export amp. They have a switch on the back that goes 110-120-220-240. Put it on 120 cuz that's where it belongs here in the US. 110 will give you more power, but could fry your amp. Use at your own peril.
-
Finally! It works clearly! I can now add split-phase to it! And distortion! I love my SG Godess! Thank you Thor

Unless you plug your guitar cable into the AC outlet, your pickups won't burn out. If one failed, then it had some random mechanical problem, a bad solder joint. The coils very rarely fail, unless you piss them off by playing badly.You're going to have to wait until you get to heaven (or hell) to see Led Zeppelin play. I hope your repetoire goes way beyond Stairway to Heaven. Do you play Freebird?
