The ADA MP-1 is the greatest pre amp ever. I've had one (that's unmodded) for years. Almost every show I play I'm asked what amp I'm playing because of its great sound.
@DwDrake2000 You're absolutely right, dude! Many of the late 80's metal albums had the ADA on it. I was once stuck in an airport with George Lynch about 10 years ago and I asked what he used on what I think was his best tone (on Back For The Attack album), he said he used an ADA a couple different amps, but the amps were only for clean tones...all the distortion you hear on that album is pure ADA, baby! \m/
@tehhkrmn65 Maybe in Ebay! and this are Rack's no amps... (AMPEG Amp Head/ ADA Pitchtraq/ ADA MP1 x2/ Alesis Midiverb II/ Rocktron Hush BBE/ Sonic Maximizer/).
What is the name of the Head and amp he uses? and what is the name of the business that seems a box that has several racks inside? and lastly, I want to know the name of Red Foot, which is above the AMP?
A lot of cats are having those ADAs modded with extra gain stages. My friend and guitarist from my last band has an ADA. He used to play it through a Jackson Lee power amp until he went with a SansAmp PSA-1 through a Mesa Simul-class. I remember he busted out the ADA once at rehearsal. :D
You can plug it into the effects return jack (or power amp IN jack) on the back of your amp. If will not sound good into the front of the amp because you'd be playing through two preamps at the same time.
In this video He is Playing a standard Ibanez RG570 which i'm pretty sure has Dimarzios as well because this was one of his back up guitars for Racer X. i dont know why you guys think paul would play Dimarzios all his life except for this video..... think about it
It says at the end of the video: thanks to Ibanez etc... and Seymour Duncan. No mention of Dimarzio. Not sayin you're wrong just sayin that i think andersonguitar is right
well if you know anuthing about paul he has been playing Dimarzio since the start of his career, go to the Dimarzio website and it has a picture of this exact Ibanez custom Epiphone Wilshire copy made only for paul pink and the caption says 2 Super Distortions wired in parallel.
Jim1490 is actually correct. at this time he had a seymour duncan minibucker in the neck position. he was not yet endorsed by dimarzio. he also had this pickup in his wilshire, so idk where u get ur info..
you guys can think whatever you would like... im not gonna argue. i was just trying to give someone some correct info. but i doesn't matter because there is always some douche bag who just has to put their word in that is usually wrong. but im not gonna argue with someone who obviously just likes to argue.
calm down dude im just givin the correct info. im a member at the racer x board. people there know pretty much anything there is to know about paul gilbert and racer x. not trying to argue, this just happens to be a fact that im am 100% sure of.
Pink Ibanez RG - Super Distortion and Seymour Duncan mini HB <--
from here, he went into an ADA Pitchraq then into 2 ADA MP1's, maybe modded with different tubes but not more modded than that, pretty standard. From these, he went into an Alesis Midiverb II, then a Rocktron Hush and finally a BBE Sonic Mazimizer, an old version as you could probably guess. If your interested in any of these then Ebay is the place to find them, they're not very hard to find."
I never sold my MP-1's or the power amps. They have killer high gain & clean tones. They could re issue those today & sell a lot of them.

By that time he wasn't endorsed by Dimarzio. He is using a Seymour Duncan Mini-Humbucker on the neck, for example.
