Who in LA is into this and wants to bring their amps to the shootout? Looking for Bogners, Soldanos, Egnators, VHTs, Diezels, Boogies, Camerons, Riveras, Wizards, Randalls, 5150's etc... Who's into this? Any manufacturers want to bring anything by?

This is gonna rock. We're gonna do the identical thing with each amp;
- 2 or 3 song clips (rhythm & lead) - different players on each clip to show styles. Different guitar each clip.
- Play solo guitar and turn knobs and switch channels with each amp, to show range.

The focus of this is going to be heavy rock to metal sounds. Everything will be recorded and video taped. I will post everything.

Please RSVP on this thread and list amps you want to bring. Also email me if you're bringing amps; james@jameslugo.com If you have no amps you are still welcome to come, everyone is invited! Would love to maybe get a shredder guitar player on board, I don't practice these days so my chops are kind of haggard. If you want to play on the shootout email me.

So there it is, let's do this. Please list the amps you are bringing on this thread.
 
Would you be interested in checking out the Egnater Seminar amp I built? Pretty high gain...

:shocked: Nice collection !
If we get all these amps on tape, it will be probably the ultimate high gain amp shootout we could ever dream of.
:rock:

Thanks for doing that James.

Perhaps you could also get a PT 100 from Suhr.

I'm scheduled to be doing some tracking on the 20th but if that falls through I may be able to make it. I've got a number of amps, but would probably bring the VHT D60/D412 rig.
 
Dave,
what type of mod do you do to the VL 1002? i sent mine too lee and he fixed the heaters, the thing with the light and disconnected the lock. it's pretty cramped in the head case do you add or subtract stuff? thanks

Tip of the iceberg in terms of what Friedman has access to... every significant amp in history. I've seen the room and almost wet myself.
