Help me get Leslie West's tone

[Marshallman]

Okay, I've just listened to a bunch of videos on Youtube with Leslie West. I just LOVE is tone. Anyone got any advice for me on how to set the knobs on the amp to reach that mojo???!!! That is so huge!!!!!!!!!!! Long live Leslie!!!

Step 1:

Buy Budda Superdrive 45 or Superdrive 80 head.

Step 2:

Set all knobs to noon.

Step 3:

Run through 4x12.

Works fine for me! I have the SD30 and it's smoother and chimier, less aggressive than the 45/80, but it nails the tone with a Les Paul-style guitar and a hot, fat bridge pickup (Suhr Aldrich in my case.)
