Title: DJC: we're missing you!!!
Post by: Iperfungus on June 23, 2017, 03:50:00 PM
Hey guys...does anyone here have news about Danny Joe Carter?
He suddenly disappeared after all that bad luck with every MP-1 he and his fellow Jason put their hands on and I did not see any new post from him.

I just remember he sent his Holy Grail MP-1 to MJMP for some mods but maybe, at the end, Philippe bought that unit when DJC gave up.

I still hope he will come back, with other MP-1 (good) stories to share.

Ehi bro...be happy, wherever you are!  :headbanger:

Hey Max, DJC is alive and well and sends his regards, he's focusing on his guitar business (http://www.dejayceguitars.com), he said he pop back from time to time, he didn't want to be negative, not that he had much luck with it all, 11 units and not one usable.. :facepalm: .  You can email him from his profile if you want to.

Hey Iperfungus I am here again old friend!

 I greatly appreciate the kind words and for thinking about me, it really does mean a lot!!

 Yeah here's the run down; it is hard to explain how bummed I was I wasn't able to get any of the numerous MP-1s I had to work properly and I just had to walk away from all of it. My buddy and I went through 9 units and then started unloading them - and yes my Holy Grail I sold to MJMP.
 Man I would have given, and still would give anything to have two units just like that one! It's why I'm very excited about the news of the newer updated MP-1 Channel and hopefully they come through with!

 So guys I am back and appreciate so much you thinking of me and I'm still seeking my new TONE which I'm fairly happy with what I have now but it could be better!  ;D

 Hey guys I hope all is well! Been busy with my business and trying to keep the band going. Richard it's always great hearing from you in email, which is always the best way to get ahold of me because I still don't get notices from the forum here.


 So how is everyone!!!  :wave:

Definitely count on Richard for that.  Myself, I don't care what the other guys say about him, I think he's alright. ;)

But yeah...don't be a stranger. You dont have to necessarily own something by ADA, just need to be a fan!

Hi Kim for sure this is a great forum and so many great people on here!


 I'm still trying out gear these days and just got a new power amp, went with the Marshall EL34 100/100! Loudest and meanest amp I have ever heard!  :whoohoo!:
 Ridiculous power and amazing tone! I am selling off all the Mesa Boogie stuff, just too much coloring and I just didn't like the tone. But the Marshall is the magic!
And I have been looking at the MP-1 Channel preamp and wishing one day they reissue the MP-1, which I know is a near impossible task for various reasons, but I'm still always checking in here to see the latest news on ADA products!
 :banana:


 And not only that - you guys just ROCK!  :banana-jazz-smiley-emoticon:

 Hello old friend!
 I'm certain you did! What power amp do you use MJMP?
Title: Re: DJC: we're missing you!!!
Post by: MarshallJMP on July 25, 2017, 11:49:56 AM
Well I use 2 old 100W marshall heads (a '67 plexi and a '72 JMP) and one of the inputs is modified so it goes straight into the power amp. Then from the heads I go into 4 4x12 marshall cabs with different speakers in them. An old '68 with celestion greenbacks, one with V30's ,one with G12-65's and one with G12T75's. And it's a stereo setup.

 Now that's what I'm talking about MJMP!! A serious let's go on tour type of rig - Amen! :whoohoo!:
And what are your thoughts still on my old preamp? Just curious if the unique sound still maintains or does it sound like some of your other MP-1s?  :)

Well it performs very well, haven't had a single problem with it. The only thing I did ,I put in a 220V transformer that came out of Iperfungus his MP-1. Sounds great, just don't understand why it gave you so much trouble.

Max will be happy you used his bits for a transplant  :thumb-up: , kind of like organ donation without dying...

Well at first he wanted to keep his original transformer, but when I told him that it was for Danny's holy grail he said it was for a very good cause  :lol:

Wow this was a blast from the past!
I'm sure missing a good working MP1 so hopefully very soon I'll snag another one!

Wow...I didn't remember that story of you asking me to keep my MP-1's original transformer for Danny's HG!
That's something good to remember and I'm happy that unit is still alive thanks to a piece of my MP-1 in the inside.
