    What's The Greatest Live Rock Guitar Album Ever?

    I know he owned a Melody Maker but I'm not familiar enough with it to say for sure. This my all time favorite slide by Rory - check out the reach in to the back pocket at 2:25 - Old School! Rn1r95Vj6IA

    What's The Greatest Live Rock Guitar Album Ever?

    My vote in two categores: 1) Just pure live microphone in the room rock: Rory Gallagher Live In Europe This video is not from Live in Europe, but is signifies why live Rory is really tough to beat. I'm not sure I've seen anybody match the "immediacy" with which he connects to the crowd...

    Flame suit on! New Winger!

    What? What is such a thing? You buy music and wait for it to be mailed to you? How peculiar. You actually handle a disc in your hands? You actually buy an album with cover art and an album insert? :D Just joking of course.

    Jaded Faith Mod Website now online

    Suggestion for the site: Move the menu to the top. I had to visit the site 3 times before I realized the menu was even there. It should be "above the fold" as they say in web design land - immediately viewable without scrolling in a 600X800 monitor. Anyway, I'm not being critical, it's just...

    George Lynch and the Egnater SL?

    Just from hanging around the board - the SL along with the VX - although not the most hyped modules - are the one's that most often come up in the "I could do an entire set with just that one module" type of comment. So, just like the brand new, dual gain, midi switchable JTM45/JMP50/1987 Lead...

    Matchless, Bruno, Top Hat module unnecessary?

    bscfo1 & muudrock - thanks for the replies. Sounds like the stock VX could be the ticket. I did some more searching on the 5751's and it looks like a lot of guys are using them to for just what I'm looking for. thanks guys. Also, once you dive in to the world of Vox variants, you realize...

    Matchless, Bruno, Top Hat module unnecessary?

    56 Post views so far and nobody saying, "Heck Yes, the cleans are that good." Perhaps a call to Jeff for some exploration of the concept is in order. In case it ever does come to light, here's my take on module description: VX-B As the fluorescence of the 80's was fading into the earthtones...

    Matchless, Bruno, Top Hat module unnecessary?

    I don't have a VX (yet)... But, I'm wondering if the cleans are good enough to make a "Boutique el84/ef86-ish Clean" module unnecessary. Matchless, Top Hat, Bruno... etc Just looking at the cleans only. The main quality I'm looking for is the throaty compression that brings out the pick attack...

    Clips of the Blues,Rock and Heavy tune are up!

    I love the clickiness of the BMAN clip - best of the bunch for me. I was pulling for the Vox Blues but after 5 A/B listens - the BMAN has it beat. This concept of clickiness (audible string and pick attack coming through the speaker - not being picked up by a (bed)room mic that's too close...

    I joined the speaker-swapping club.

    Eric - thanks so much for the detailed response. On the iso cab, have you ever tried running the iso cab signal to powered speakers (or a power amp and speakers) in a room and then room micing the full range speakers? Basically re-micing it. I wonder if that either on it's own or mixed with...

    I joined the speaker-swapping club.

    I always wonder how much of speaker swapping is finding the best speaker for the tone your looking for and how much of it is just finding the best speaker for your bedroom, or garage, or basement, and at whatever volume you play most of the time. Anybody have thoughts or experiences with...

    Flame suit on! New Winger!

    Back in 1992 I got that Guitar World album - "The Guitars that Rule The World!" It was my first foray away from Metal and Grunge and into instrumental soloing. The very first track on that is Reb Beach - Black Magic KWGQWu6mSWM It was my first - "Oh my gosh somebody is better at guitar than...

    New Egnater goes country!

    Did I miss the ETA somewhere on when the clips are expected to be posted? Sorry guys, the posts were fast and furious - did all these clips spoken of get recorded and we're just waited for mastering? thanks Nick

    Mod50 vs. MICA TOL

    I think this is what stops me from just pulling the trigger on the TOL. No two amps are going to be the same, but if they both keep you smiling then I should probably go with the one that's most suited to how I'll be using it. But, if I can pick up a TOL head for around $1500 then the ever...

    Mod50 vs. MICA TOL

    Thanks for the heads up. Getting a bead on the market value is really helpful. Hah! Maybe Bruce can do a limited run of TOL's with the old logo and a power section that's rated at 1.21 giggawatts!

    Mod50 vs. MICA TOL

    I keep hearing that from the occasional guy who owns a TOL - they're like, oh all Egnater stuff is great, but dang that TOL head is just..... The half stack I was talking about is still up on eBay. https://cgi.ebay.com/Egnater-TOL-100-MIC ... 2c5180e111 Completely different vibe going on...

    Mod50 vs. MICA TOL

    Hypothetical Scenario: You've decided to add an Egnater amp to your line up. But, the goal is to add that "Bruce" flavor to the line up rather than trying replace the lineup with the modular stuff. Would you: 1) Go Mod50 anyway because it's current production, you can still get the...

    The Egnater info session at NYC Guitar Center was great!

    Rock on Nick's Dad! Winning totally cool stuff, is well totally cool. Didn't have a Renegade on the way in - got one in tow on the way out. Awesome. As Eric said, hopefully we'll get to see some of these on the web.

    RM100 vs. MOD 50-Third Slot vs. Less flexible power section

    Hey guys, Weighing a MOD 50 vs having Jeff mod me up a Randall RM100 to take the dual modules. The plus on the RM100 is the extra module. Downside is that it's straight up 100 watts - no power scaling The biggest thing I'd ever play is a club or a state fair so stadium volume isn't exactly...
