Very nice tone VH.

I hope I will get similar one with my JTM 45, I just wait for a hotplate.
Do you use an overdrive stomp ?

Thanks captain cavman. No overdrive pedal, just the gain from the amp. I turn it up real loud to drive the tubes and then lower it with a Variac to get that nice overdrive.

The Variac thing is a tip from Ed if I well remember.

You slightly change the voltage to increase the drive , right ?

Yeah, Ed used it on all the old DLR era records. He may even do it now, not really sure. When i use the variac all i'm really hearing is the volume drop. If it gives it more drive it's only a slight amount imo.

Gotta say I love those clips you always post. If you do any request I would love to hear some old TOOL with/without changing your settings. That would be cool.
