Spending a few days with James Lugo

[hthomas]

Headed off to James' place tomorrow. Gonna hang with him for a few days. We are gonna compare the new Friedman Pink Taco to his amps. Should be a interesting comparison. I'm sure he will have a video for you all to see. His new band has a gig Saturday. I will def get some video. I'm sure some of you would love to hear some of his tunes being played live.

Gonna be a great few days of nerding out with a bunch of gear!

More to come!

Cool dude, what amps are you guys planning on comparing to the pink taco?

i enjoyed his pickup shootout series he did a while back, the accompanying video he did was pretty informative/humorous as well

More than likely his 100w Marshall (modded by Friedman),100w Ceriatone Plexi, and a 50w Marshall JMP. Can't remember what year though.

Cool...
If he still has the Reeves Super '78 around, throw that one in the mix again. I've been intrigued by those amps but the clips he did of it previously sounded nothing like the clips on the Reeves website, which left me

Awesome, looking forward to the videos!

Don't let him get you into the white van with no windows...

Harris, tell James I said "Hi! and have a good time. He's a wildman, in a totally acceptable way...wish I was there, to be honest with you.

Will do! He is wild! Love it. Been here a few times since he's moved to my neck of the woods. Would love to have more of you all to hang with. Like the old days at James' old studio.

Well, you have fun. He's a good resource for knowledge. I've been to both of his studios in LA, it was a fun time! Enjoy!

When we did the amp shootout a few years ago that amp turned a great deal of heads. When it came on everyone stopped what they were doing and we're like, "What amp is THAT?"

I've been toying with the idea of getting one for far too long. Just need something to push me over the edge...
