2 Variac's clip

[jape88]

THANKS!
Do you then lower the Variac from the wall socket? I mean 110 isn´t that what you´ve got in the US? I mean if you have it at 110 why the need for a Variac? I got 230V here in Europe Sweden. Does the Variac between the amp and cab become like an attenuator? Could you use an attenuator instead?

Different for us in Europe. Have a listen to this guys clip, I've no idea what he's saying but it gives you a feel of straight 230/200 and 180v. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2NB5bbg6bY

There's another guy who's on here too and in Sweden, Staalhoofd. He's running his at 185v in this clip...

I haven't tried a variac yet, I need to get one after these clips

Yes. That Staalhoofd clip is a great example of a plexi circuit starved of voltage, and its effect on tone.

Most of my wall sockets are outputting anywhere from 121 to 127 depending on the time of day.

Wait. Are you asking why we're dropping the voltage because you are thinking that 110VAC is already half of the 220VAC that you electricity is? You do know the PT has different taps for US, Europe, etc, right?
