Great video! There's not many people making videos like this, keep up the great ideas!

We knew the dolly would come in handy! Wasn't it nice of us to pack one for you?!

[@rickyrayreid]

Where’d you put it? Can’t find it 🤣🤣🤣

Why the Ironman over the Twonotes, which gives IRs and such?

[@rickyrayreid]

So here's my personal experience and a quick breakdown of the ironman vs two notes vs ox.
Best attenuator:
1. Iron Man II (Cleanest and most transparent sound, extremely noticable versus the other two attenuators that would get "fizzy" sounds when really pushed with overdrive and distortion) Also have some tone options/switches if you hear something interesting happening with high-end of the amp.
2. OX (barely beats two notes because the ox has 5 levels of attenuation)
3. Two Notes (great size)
Best Attenuator/IR Reactive load box:
1. OX Box (sounds are absolutely incredible, cabs are great. Cannot download additonal/custom IRs. Just the size is biiiig and bulky. 5 levels of attenuation. Incredible though.)
2. Two notes captor X (Downloadable IRs available. Great all around. Only 3 levels of attenuation)
X. Iron Man II (because it CAN'T do IRs or any modeling unfortunately)
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!

FYI all types of tape continue to cure and will leave residue eventually. Board tape is a good option for less residue. The real solution to tape residue is either not use tape or have a bottle of Goo-Gone around.

Thank you for the information! Definitely appreciate it! I personally haven't had an issue with painter's tape yet but I'll keep you/everyone posted if it turns into a mess. Then I'll do a video on how to use Goo-Gone on a cabinet! 🤣
Thanks again for the comment and tip!
