I have an old Hughes and Kettner Cream machine but I have no idea how it compares to other amps. Not the best amp ever but fun to play through. http://hughesandkettnermicroamps.weebly.com/cream-machine.html

I've played at churches using at Tech21 Flyrig direct and got lots of compliments on how good my sound was. Throw in a better delay, Pigtronix Echolution for me, and it's even better. If I want to get fancy I can add in a compressor, Xotic EP booster or a modulation pedal. The biggest problem...

WHOAH, WHOAH, WHOAH!!! A demo that's not extremely gained out and is actually mid-gain with a strat?!?! On the the other hand, meh...didn't make me want it. Didn't sound that great. Probably just the demo. I would really like something like this though.

All true but what if your rythym guitar needs to be interesting? :confused: I'm glad albums by Zeppelin, Queen, Hendrix, Van Halen, etc. didn't have that. Just giving you a hard time. Different strokes and all.

No kidding! I've been waiting 8 years to find out. The suspense is killing me! :D

I wonder if you could just send them a pick guard to copy. Should be more accurate. I'd like to get a new for a So-Cal too. Seems odd that they wouldn't have something like that on file. Is it a liability thing?

Simple. Start the collection with this amber guitar then follow it up with green.

Not familiar with the store but it looks like I drive right past it when I go visit my in-laws. I'll have to go check it out.

It's been a long time since I've played a new Axis but I have one from the 90s that is definitely smooth playing.

Charvels with maple = No drag Eric Johnson strat with maple neck and funky finish = definite drag!

Cool! Personally, I wouldn't look at it as being in A major or minor but just in A because he's mixing scales. It's an overall "A" tonality. To me it's more like a mixolydian, dominant 7, type of thing because jazz/blues players will throw in every note they can squeeze out of their instruments...

One of the things that really defined very early blues was the tension between the major tonality of the song and the "blue" notes like b3rd or b5th being mixed in. B.B. King also did this a lot. I would say that all of the good blues players mix it up but B.B. in particular used the major...

Look up two posts from this one I just quoted and see if that helps.

I will say that if that guy in the youtube video is going to play the blues on that Strat he needs to raise the action. The fret buzz is annoying! :D

Responding to the last two comments: The video is about mixing both A major and A minor and he clearly points out whether he is playing major or minor. Fuego is correct about moving from the root of a major scale down to the 6th degree of the scale (ex. In C major going down to the A note) to...

I don't know who has a body already swirled but Ben Eller has done some amazing swirls. I wonder if he still does that?

He should just change his band name to something that affirms an absence of racism. Maybe George of the Jungle Fever

For Eric Johnson, it's basically a fuzz face into a Marshall so try something like that. May not need another amp.

I have the Fly Rig 5 and think this video is pretty accurate for how it sounds. I don't care for the feel when playing through it though. 0oqcEZxyKPU

No doubt. The headstock makes it look like the guitar came from Sears or something. I guess you can expect to get Varius opinions about them though.
