Re: Yngwie 308 My Old Much Missed amps!
Eric Bazilian, there's a name I haven't heard in a while. In college in Philly, we'd go see the Hooters in bars a couple times a month. They were a super-fun act live back in the days before Eric got in touch with his inner mandolin player.

Re: Yngwie 308 My Old Much Missed amps!
Who Fan,if you met the Jamaican girl I was engaged to you would have sold them too.But I don't regret anything I have done in my life,I was playing Marshalls in 1967 in London,bought my first amp,a Marshall Lead stack at Jim and Terry Marshalls original Hanwell,London shop/factory!
I used to see Bluesbreakers,they weren't know as those back then of course!
For you guys salivating over the Vox's that I had at my house,those weren't even the best ones!! I had 8,yes 8 JMI Vox AC30's at my house ,copper panel,Vox Blues,Top Boosts,you name it.I even had conversion kits,small little circuits on an ally panel,with a control knob,that would convert your AC30 to a top boost.And in the mid nineties,I couldn't give any of this stuff away!!
Nobody was interested in buying any of them,didn't know what they were.
In England the Vox AC30 is known as a working mans amp and they laugh at us revering them as they are as common as a siver panel Twin to them!
I am done with vintage amps,as I have been there,done that for all of my playing life,and there is only rubbish for sale at ridiculous prices now,and I got hardly anything for my amps,believe me ,and Bazilian bought them as a favor I think yo help me out as he flipped them shortly after!
Here are some photos of Eric playing my '54 Junior in his home studio,and he is a good songwriter and guitarist,not just a mandolin player!
My Semer Crocodile finished amp there as well with the killer creme back Celestions.

Here are shots of Jimi playing the Black Flag head on stage in 1967 in Europe and in 1968 in NY:
These are of the JTM45/100 head and the basis for Marshalls latest HW JH100 stack,at the Bag 'O Nails Club ,London 1967:
Here is one of the 12000 series behind Mitch Mitchell:
This is Andys site,the Black Flag is on Pg 2,in the white cab:

You can read of my 1959 Super Lead HW amp woes on this thread,and now my HW is basically modded as george does in this thread,changed OT ,zoso caps,F&T caps,allen bradley resistors,you'll see,also clip the bright cap on the lead channel!!!!
Unfortunately I took a big chance dropping over $5K on this HW stack,the cabs are great,almost like my old ones,but the heads have serious quality control issues,poor wiring ect.Well read for your selves:

Re: Yngwie 308 My Old Much Missed amps!
man they have a Hand Wired 1959 reissue at my local Canadian shop.... the price has dropped $1600 in the last 6 months.... It's now around $2900 Canadian for i think the head and a 4x12... could be wrong, may just be the head...
anyways a 100 plexi reissue would blew away my hearing.... ha ha ha.... i know a player that uses a 50 watt HW and says it is too loud for stage work and sticks to a jcm 800...
