Hey guys and gals.....
I just had my mind blown. Those who've followed my postings to date probably understand that I chase the quality of sound more then the quality of my playing, though I'm a passable rhythym guitarist. As I was doing the upgrades to my fatboy, I run across the idea of(and became enamored of) splitting my guitar output into two amps. I finally got my splitter(ABY box) today. It's nothing fancy but is solidly made unit by RapcoHorizon. It's a single input, dual amp outputs with switches for each output and a direct connect output for a tuner. I got it from my local music store at the recommendation of my favorite luthier Tony(whose done the work I was scared to do on my axe). He warned me about the ground hum so I didn't even wait and try without dealing with that. Before I plugged the splitter in, I use a ground prong eliminator. Plugged everything up(using my little Crates), switched one on and set it for some tremolo, then switched the other up and set up some reverb..........then both at the same time..............................and it just kinda blew my mind. I had been gassing over a Vox AC15 but have had a real hard time justifying spending $400 on an amplifier(but damn I love the sound of my fatboy thru that amp).......well, that gassing has finally passed.
I'm wondering if any of y'all have had similar experience running something like this........and what kinda of setups you're using........
Here's mine.....
Ibanez Artcore AF75 customized
Crate GXF 15
Crate GX 15R
Rapco Horzion AB1
