    Boost pedal comparison

    If you can find one, I’d recommend either a Majik Box “Rocket Fuel”, or the Majik Box Jake E Lee signature OD. I alternate using them in front of my Suhr PT100, and Bogner Helios 100.

    Ozzy with Joe Holmes Japan TV 1996

    I think Ozzy missed out by not doing an album, or two, with Joe Holmes. JH is for real. His Farmikos album is crazy good.

    Can everyone on earth all agree…*best clean guitar*

    Yep. We saw EJ three nights in a row during the AVM tour. Holy cr@p! It was a borderline religious experience. On night 3, we were in this tiny club in Sacramento, the Cattle Club. And he brought his full arsenal. Absolutely magical.
