Back to the basics!

Re: Back to the basics!

Guitar -> OD pedal -> Amp.

And I have the best tone I've ever had, by far.

Tasty!

Basics, essentially, a Les Paul into a Marshall type amp

Good as it gets!

Interesting. I've definitely got the variety of guitars:

Gibson LP 56RI w/ Stock P-90s
Gibson LP 58RI w/ Seths
Gibson LP Standard w/ APH/Custom Custom
Charvel Standard w/ Jazz/JB
GMW Strat w/ 59
Fender JV Strat w/ Antiquity's

(Damn, thats too many guitars!!! :laugh2:

But I think your absolutely right as far as amps, and having a variety of tonal choices.

I just found myself playing around with the effects more than "playing" if that makes any sense.

A very nice collections of guitars you have there. But too many guitars? You can never have too many guitars :fingersx:

I love pure amp tone, like Clapton's tone on the Cream albums, pure amp distortion with just some wah thrown in here or there. But I really like all those different effects, like the Univibe on Bridge of Sighs or Machine Gun, phasing like on Nobody's Fault But Mine and early Van Halen, delays and reverb, and fuzz and distortions. I wish I didn't contradict myself so much :smack:
