    Deserted Island For Life...One Amp...One Guitar

    Of all the stuff I've had, when I listen to my recordings from the early 2000's, I had the recipe without realizing it at the time. Marshall 100 watt Vintage Modern and matching 4x12, with a Jeff Beck Strat. No-matter what pedal I put in front of that amp, it sounded great, plus the Gain...

    Are You A Better Guitar Player Than... Episode V

    When I post clips of gear, its mostly wanking bullshit. Back in the day though, when I was playing to backing tracks, I played with much more musicality. This is one of those, using a Menatone Top Boost In A Can, 7-knob version.

    Michael Schenker fans, dig it...

    That was awesome! Long-time fan. Saw UFO opening for Rainbow in '75. He was killer then and still is. Is that a Marshall 2000 series? If it is, between him and Nuno w/ the 2000, I'm interested in it.

    Best "Dumble in a Box" pedal, Menatone 7-knob Howie

    I waited a year for this and sold it within a month. The HOWIE pedal was fun, but to have a whole amp dedicated to that tone (at that time) it wasn't for me. I wish I still had it though.

    Best "Dumble in a Box" pedal, Menatone 7-knob Howie

    I had the 7-knob TBIAC back then. Awesome tone.

    Best "Dumble in a Box" pedal, Menatone 7-knob Howie

    In the early 2000's Menatone made 7-knob versions of most of their OD pedals. I had them all. The Howie in particular. Made me play and phrase things a bit different than was my norm.

    Is it finally time for a scalloped board?

    Fender doesn’t even offer the Yngwie in that Powder Blue color anymore. I had one or two of those too, nice color. I will way this. I much preferred the DiMarzio HS-3’s.

    Is it finally time for a scalloped board?

    I owned quite a few Yngwie Strats. My fav, a Candy Apple Red, a color they don't offer any more. I got one currently and I look at it as a novelty.

    What CAN'T you do on guitar?

    Probably from being naturally left-handed. My right hand is my weak hand, so it was the most natural way for me to hold the pick. I know Steve Morse holds the pick with 3 fingers as well. At least he used to. I

    What CAN'T you do on guitar?

    I’m good at playing it in a certain way, and that way doesn’t involve any of those techniques, which I really can’t do well at all

    New Satch Vai - pretty cool

    What CAN'T you do on guitar?

    Is there any technique, no-matter how much you try, you just can't get a handle on it? My personal list is a long one- 1. can't alternate pick 2. can arpeggiate chords properly 3. can't chug open A (ala every Ozzy tune) 4. can't hold pick properly (3 fingers) which in turn means I can't...

    NPD - BOSS WAZA Chorus, noisy little thing it is.

    I got my Boss Waza Chorus (and a bunch of other Boss effects) in front of my 3rd Power Dragon amp. I got the gain on the amp dimed. There is no annoying noise when I kick on the chorus. I've tried it in the effects loop, but the volume goes up several notches, so I don't use it that way.

    DLR Show- So much better than the Hagar/ VH show

    No huge fanfare. Just a killer band and great tunes. The 4 Convicts paroled to sing backup is a nice touch as well. Also, kudos to the Soundman, who actually lets you hear the guitar clearly.

    Friedman Jose, any news?

    I had no problem w/ the build quality. My gripe is the amp is excessively bright. Also excessively bassy. I found the brightness impossible to dial out, using a Strat. He addressed this with the 50 watt JEL, it has a 3-way bright switch for each channel.

    Friedman Jose, any news?

    In the meantime, while Dave is waiting for Trump to solve the supply chain issues, he could spend his time tightening up that piece of shit JEL 20.
