Awesome RID! You filled in some holes with the Selmers, Sound City, and Carlsboro. Bring on the pictures!!!

Forget about the 6L6 and 6V6 amps. We won't even hear you!!! The mids will cancel you out! LOL

You don't have to risk your neighbours sanity and your eardrums to get good tone though! Its all relative!

Re: Tribute to British Tone.

Well, I think Joe and Rid pretty much covered it....LOL. I'll put mine in here for good measure though.

80's Marshall Lead 12 (yes, it was made in the UK) and 1990 Marshall JCM900 MkIII 2100.
Edit: Forgot one, my Vox AD50.

Re: Tribute to British Tone.

1985 Marshall 4212 (2205 Circuit) Modded by Jeff Seal. PC boards removed and PTP wiring put in. Clean channel is based on a Fender Twin, and has a bright switch via pull switch. Overdrive channel is based off a Plexi when the gain control is kept in the approx 6 and under range, and then the drive sound of a 2204 kicks in when the gain control is over 6. There is also an additional gain stage available by pulling on the channel volume which takes it into TSL territory, but it's pretty damn noisey.

Cab is a 1960 with GT-75's
