This, pretty much. Except my jcm800 is a Mesa Mark IV... it does what I need it to do.JCM800.
Boost of your choice.
JB style humbucker.
Everything else is useless bullshit.
ymmv

I don't play brutal AF metal, so I really couldn't say.
I play VH, Nuno type stuff - that's about as brutal as I get.
Mine is a "homebrew" JCM800 circuit I built inside the chassis of an old 1989 Laney 100W
Mine's just a stock circuit.I've done the same with an old Pro Tubes 88'.. a few minor tweaks on toggle switches and it sounds phenomenal.

I pull two 6CA7's and dial the variac down to 105VAC
Yeah, I'm using the Electro-Harmonix 6CA7's.Love me the 6CA7's in mine as well. Your amp cuts, love it.
My playing has gone to shit since this last episode of GAS. I spend way too much time fucking around with pedals, pickups, different amps/cabs than I do practicing.
This is exactly how it’s been for me as well. I let the gear shape me a little bit rather than being one of those guys that sounds the same no matter what they playThis is something I never understood with so many guys as I’m the complete opposite.. any new piece of gear I buy I have to try it with every guitar/amp/cab combo I have which usually leads to new riffs and ideas. I hardly ever play the same combo of gear for more than a day, I think it helps keeping me playing more
Give us your secret rig then ! We know you can play !Never really chased tthe tone /gear so much. It was more just trying to get what I was looking for…a JCM800 with a boost just wasn’t it.
Wouldn't be a secret anymore.Give us your secret rig then ! We know you can play !
Thanks. No secret really…just my Wizard MC1, a cab using my Anderson Hollow Cobra and a couple pedals.Give us your secret rig then ! We know you can play !
Maybe I should rephrase this. My picking hand is still solid and I can still riff like always. I just haven't recorded/remembered/written any new material in over 2 years. I have a few friends that are in touring bands that are just waiting on me to get some stuff written so we can record some tunes. Due to my amp flipping, pedal buying, etc, I haven't put forth the time or effort to concentrate on getting stuff written.This is something I never understood with so many guys as I’m the complete opposite.. any new piece of gear I buy I have to try it with every guitar/amp/cab combo I have which usually leads to new riffs and ideas.
