Little Wing w/Metropoulos 12000 Series and El Capistan Echo

[sah5150]

Also using a Badgerplex Pre in front of the amp. El Capistan is in the loop... I also know that I'm playing the intro wrong... I just thought folks would like to hear George's amp doing something mellow:

CLIP!

Sounds great Steve!

I'd like to get my hands on that echo pedal, I heard they are killer.

I think you'd dig the El Capistan, George. Closest thing to an actual echoplex I've ever heard and the Badgerplex Pre in front just adds this nice chime and brilliance to the tone - it is basically an echoplex preamp...

BTW - thanks for doing such a KILLER job on this amp, man! I love it!

Very nice! Please give more details, guitar, which pup, which position, amp settings, what speakers, whatever you can stomach to share.

Thx
