How about more time wood-shedding and less time chasing your tail around looking for a tone that someone described to you on a forum once? I guarantee that if you're warmed up enough, every amp in your extensive arsenal will sound better.
Go take a VH song and spend alot of time dissecting it and learning the nuances of Eddie's playing. That's a much more worth-while investment if you ask me.

Shit, people were willing to send their Old marshall heads in with full payment and wait for yrs often with no communication and many times no amp returned just to get a chance at owning one. Now owning a ptp board Cameron jose or aldrich with loop and warranty is becoming a reality. I do agree that if u have the skill and already have an old marshall laying around that U can build a killer head on the cheap and am interested in following the build, not everyone has thousands to shell out on the next new thing and i get that but I think that what brad is doing with mark is great news for guitar players and gear heads everywhere. Once out I will probably order one.

I saw it the same way but I guess others saw it as an attack. Forums are funny things.![]()

Well to be completely honest, "in true EVH spirit" I screwed up a lot of perfectly good stuff before I started getting it right. I even destroyed a perfectly good vintage mightmite 1300 distortion pup on my kitchen stove swapping magnets and trying to pot it. It ceased to work and still smells like vanilla to this day. My wife was a little pissed about the good yankee candle missing off the mantle too. How was I too know those things are like $20 a piece? It's hard to deny what you did when the whole downstairs smells like vanilla.ratter":1u0ndwq3 said:ejecta":1u0ndwq3 said:mentoneman":1u0ndwq3 said:digi is getting punched in the face but i read he just wanted to put an atomica type amp together on slightly more than a used marshall budget, to prove it could be done, and is frustrated by all these $killer$ new amps tweaking a higher gain VH jose master formula ala kid in a huge new candy store!

And not for nuthin', but putting it together on the kitchen table is as true to the EVH spirit as it gets. They can't all be hits but I don't see the harm in a little DIY action, clone or not.
I have a Friedman-modded Naylor that is awesome. I would love to own a Metro, and a Cameron. And I love to see guys getting their hands dirty with guitars and amps in DIY fashion. It's ALL good...
