Re: Matamp vs Electric. someone explain.
GTO is a bit confusing to know exactly whats up, like i said they changed schemes, threw names around. Its all super confusing. Without awesome gut shots I dont know and if its turret track its fuckin hard to figure out

I read that on one forum (cant remember which one but it came up in a Google search) but this one has a master volume. It doesn't do high gain and doesn't seem like it is 120 watts, but that could be because the power tubes are about 2 years old. I'll try to get some gut shots the next time I bring it home.

Re: Matamp vs Electric. someone explain.
its likely similar to a GT120 but if I see mid I assume its a FMV and not a bax so all bets could be off

When I was reading up on the GT200 the 2nd gen had a mids control but it was active. Does that imply its still an FMV? I thought you had said before that bax can have an active mids control but it still vastly changes the overall tone control.

Re: Matamp vs Electric. someone explain.
an active baxandall could have mids but a passive max I have yet to see with mids. You could have a bax EQ then a separate active mids EQ elsewhere in the circuit line (ala V4 and SVT).

Nick, I just had a chance to take some pics. Here is a link to about 20 pics in a photo bucket album.

Sick I will take a bunch of pics of mine as well when i get the time to delve into it. While my presence shaft is broken there's still enough there to secure the knob on there in the correct place so its not vital.

Aren't you supposed to add "in a jeep" or something on the end of that?
