I like many different types of amps for many different types of sounds. For instance, Mesa Boogies. I will never play enough "crushing /\/\ET/\LS!!" to need super variable circuit path selection and MEGAODISTORIODETH. I love Fenders for jangly cleans, and lush groovy harmonics. I have an o...

me too! model 4500? i also have the bassiest plexi ever. this thread makes me bored/sad except the pics of mike's amp. Model 4500 it is. I love my amp.

Hi, I'm new, nice to meet you all. I'd like to derail this argument by asking a stupid pickup question of my own. I have an LP studio that sounds too similar to my SG standard for me to bother using them both much anymore. So I was thinking about putting a P94 in the neck of the LP and a seymour dun...

Hi, I'm gaybear's friend. I play drums. What type of sound are you going for? Are you going for a nice open ringing sound? Are you going for a dry crisp attack? Are you going for '70's studio thudditry? If you're going for the open ringing sound, then Evan's G2s or Pinstripes with some moon gel will...
