That's actually not different at all; I've always said that if I practice on an acoustic, or like you mention "action waay too high" that absolutely helps in some ways when you pick up your main guitars. After warming up on 'harder to play' guitars I'm in a great spot and am ready to go. It's...

Amps that have great feel/touch sensitivity, mostly tend to make you work a little harder. But when you spend more time with them, I feel that your playing improves because you're forced to up your game a little. Vintage Fenders, some Mesas(Mark IIs), old Marshalls, Wizards, SLOs, VHT/Fryettes...

I can't pick just one... Peavey 5150 EVH 5153 (the Iconic is damn good tho) Splawn I just don't care for any of those. I've had a Nitro(yuck), played a QR(was OK at best), owned 4 5153s (both stealth 100s, 2 50w), and I've never heard a live 5150 sound decent nor the one I played through years...

The DeYoungs have a 'HiFi' thing to them; different than the BAD versions made now. That said, I've heard good things about Fusion Bear's work.

Yep....only 50-60w amps that sound/feel like a 100 are the D60, a 50w Wizard and a 50w NMV Marshall. That I've owned anyway. HUGE sounding amps.

Not for me. D60s are like a modded Marshall, the way I dialed them. The 120s are modern, smoother and will shake your bowels with the low end....but I preferred the more aggressive D60. Had both at the same time (when you could find them for <800$). Both are great amps. Just depends on what...

I have a quad of those G12 S50s....same as those ADA 212s...surprisingly good sounding for a small magnet Celestion. Have a great show!

Have a great gig!!

I think that would be killer. The J90 I have in the soloist, may be too hot for either of these preamps. But, I do have a vintage Mighty Mite 1400 I can throw in to my 86 Jackson; I'll bet that will work well. This soloist sounds really great with the stock J90..if the pre is too much, I'll...

That one looks even better...since you can control the frequencies....ordered....thanks!

Alas, it does not...I was hoping for one, as I had a 1991 Soloist with the JE1200 and I LOVED that boost. I ordered a copy on eBay Wed, we'll see how it does next week. That 1991 came with the lower output J50 bridge pup and the boost was perfect with it. This soloist has a J90, which measures...

It's an OFR...from the 80s. You can tell with the nut using the stupid 'screws through the neck' which most mfrs did back then. And, the fine tuners are showing some brass underneath the black paint. The very bottom link, click on that and it'll show a close up of the OFR.

Have a great gig!

Thanks gents! I believe they spell out "London"; but not positive. I read that Warren got his first one from Charvel and was just glad it didn't offend anyone in Japan lol(since he didn't know what it meant either haha)

Another GEM from Alund's collection that he is assisting in selling...this is a 1988 Jackson Soloist, top mount Floyd with an 80s artist graphic(this is a unique thing in itself..I always thought you couldn't order an artist graphic during the 80s). Comes with a J90 Alnico bridge pickup, and a...
