Don’t. The amplifiers tone circuit was always what determines the tone of its sound, but even if you can dial several amps to sound the same there’s a value to having the same range of sound provided by yours.

It’s the reason comparison videos like these don’t do control sweep comparisons or use the foot switches like normal people do.

If you still feel bad, buy a quality clone to gig with and keep your antique safe at home (where it can appreciate in value).

Breadtube if it didn’t suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It’s open submission unless there’s something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it’s currently in.
