The Fair Warning is what I have in my Charvel HRF.
There are two distinct tones on VH1, obviously. The Destroyer is gainier and fatter, the Frank is less gainy and more scooped.
The main difference between the tones in VH1 and VH2 is the fact that Ed got the Seymour (or Seymour rewound the...
Yes. Your tube amps are instruments. My nicest, most toneful and nuanced guitar is my ‘64 335 block. It is amazing. I don’t take it out. I record with it, but it hasn’t left my home studio since I obtained it. Am I overprotective? Yeah, probably. But my strats, my old tele and my Charvels aren’t...
Who wants to take a chance on this?

1968 Plexi Superlead, about 100 sn from Ed’s. It was PRISTINE — still had the asbestos tube retainers and original preamp tubes. What an impatient idiot I am.
2004 Soldano SLO — just fat smoothness that made G12-65’s sing.
After the demos I expected the Bogner Telos to be a swampy mess but talking to the Bogner guys they said it was a JTM45 with a switchable front end.
So impressed. Just a great Bognerized Marshall with a front end that can go from Tweed Twin to JTM45 to 1959 and really good FX loop. 6L6 means it...
Great thread and Jim I am so glad you are still with us. My wife used to be on the transplant team at her hospital before she retired from medical work. I know some of the journey you have been on from seeing it first hand. I don’t mean to offend anyone here with religion but know that I will...
