Damn! Never heard of the smoke before!! I knew of the expansion rate from taking my guitars on airlines before,but mostly for the neck,not the body. Try a camera shop,they will have the lithium batteries in the 9 volt. that will give the closet thing to having the AC adaptor.
Lihium would really be the route to go for everyone,but they cost so much in comparison. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Saturday, August 16, 2008 11:35:08 PM)

Still on the battery. A regular, at that. None of those supercharged things (that I did look for but couldn't find around here).
Sounds great all the same. Just tone heaven this afternoon. Even took the time to read the instructions as to how to care for this fine instrument today. Just out of curiousity. LOVED the advice from Gibson Custom as to watch for "blue smoke" coming off the guitar if you move it from extreme cold to hot. Close the case immediately! Wood expanding too fast for the paint!

Are you still using just the battery or did you get the AC adaptor?

Speaking of tone, my friend. Sitting here with the SG in my lap + DS-1 + Vox Valvetronix = PARADISE!!! DAMN, this sounds good!
Still can't really figure out what the Keeley mod is doing on the DS-1, btw.

If the tone has stuck to you like that,try a little rubbing alcohol!!!lol! If you liked the tone that much,that`s your amp. All this time later and you still think about it, sounds like that your choice is made. The MG`s have a good thick tone,very tube like. get it and go for it!! When you need to upgrade,you`ll know what you`re expectations are from an amp. The Line6 stuff is good also,but I think I would go for the Marshall,since it`s "stuck to you" and all!!

i played through combo version when i was at guitar centre purchasing my RR3 back in march and the tone still sticks to me lol. I'm hopefully getting a new amp next april for my birthday but im not quite 100% sure on what i want to get. its either the Line 6 Spider III 75, or that Marshall half stack.
