This is good advice... think kid in candy store. The sound clips are great, but hearing George's stuff in person is heaven.

Welcome!

Thanks for the warm welcome, guys! I would love to stop by and chat, George I will give you a call.

My amp history is mostly Fender, but i have owned a Mesa Boogie Mk IV and a Matchless Chieftan. I've never owned or even played thru a Marshall! But from what i have read over the years, Marshall copied the fender Bassman for his first designs..I dont know how true that is..just what i read some where. So, anyhow, if this is true, I am sure I will like owning a Marshall in any event!
I have played blues mostly but have a band now that is playing Classic rock...I think I found you at the right time, George! lol 8)

BTW, i think i see a JTM 45/100 in my future... :D
