The wave file sounds much better, but this will give you an idea.

Have a drink on me. Les Paul with T tops - '67 replica - '70 cab with G12H's - e609 - Mackie mixer set flat - RME Multiface - Cool edit Pro 32 bit mono.

'67 replica specs: new Sozo caps. Tung Sol pres (you need to try these) JJ E34L's. Vol II on 10, treble 8, middle 10 bass 4, presense 5.


EDIT: this is a new clip with both an SM57 and the e609 mics.

bring it on home.

short clip of the end part from we will rock you.

Fantastic

Funk 49. Please disregard the phrasing, timing and pitch. Other than those things, it rocks.

I can't believe this. Here's a clip of my G&L Legacy (Strat type guitar) doing a terrible Jimi.

I hit the Fulltone '69 fuzz at the end.

George

Here's the G&L through my JTM 45/100 prototype and the Fulltone 69 fuzz. I just dimed everything on the amp and went for it. Way too fuzzy IMO.

The cool thing is, at the end I started the lead break and saw blue arching in one of the output tubes! You can hear when the nasty hum starts in the clip.

I hope it's just a fluke and these Valve Art KT66's can handle 520 volts.

Hey you stole my 2 favorite riffs to clip with- The Queen and the Joe Walsh. Clip police... Wasnt Funk49 really a Deluxe? Its got the soul of a Marshall though.

They sound great! Im already checking the mail every 2 hours for my caps damn you.

Now that sounds exactly like a 40 year old amp!

Guitar Player Amp of the Decade!

Great Job dude!

Sounds fantastic George - both of those amps are killer! Could you do a VH inspired clip of the '67 replica? Would just like to hear in a more gain intensive environment..............

Thats not the VH circuit is it?

No, that's the early circuit. First revision after JTM45/100. Basically a plexi superbass with a 100pf bright cap.

George

Do you think it likely that any guitar rag- world, player, vintage- ever got a new production amp of Metro caliber before? They probably would make it amp of the decade. The price is just the icing on the cake. Fuck that its a whole second cake.

i love the blues saraceno things...
perhaps he used marshall on his first album ?
and his father amp was a great amp
perhaps not really away from a plexy ..

I think I read a long time ago that he had an old Marshall. I recall something about JCM 800's too. It's been so long ago that I'm probably wrong. Anyone remember?
