Always wanted a blacked out lpc. Looks great.

I just got watched that Jeff Beck video last night…. Then scolded my LP for not sounding as good.

While I think his gear reviews are pretty straightforward & honest… It’s easy to be fooled by hearing Andy make something sound great, then discover that my average playing doesn’t quite get there.

Just jumped on this Amazon deal. Hopefully they don’t suck.

Came across this on Amazon & ordered a pair to try out.

I went down a rabbit hole of collecting dirt pedals for a few years. When I can’t crank my big amps, or just want something different; I’ll grab whichever one I’ve been favoring lately, and run it into my deluxe. I can noodle for hours while the wife is in the next room & thoroughly enjoy...

Distortion pedals have come such a long way in recent years. I still prefer amp gain by a mile, but there are some pedals that really sound fantastic with a good clean amp.

I bought & sold a few old 5150’s over the years. I finally found a reasonable deal on another one & this one is staying.

The radio stations overplaying it became obsolete & people actually want to hear it sometimes.

I played Duncans pretty much exclusively for the longest time, and always kept one guitar around with EMG’s. More recently I’ve taken a liking to BKP, Fralin & Suhr pickups in a few of my guitars.

Funny to read about this. Just the other day I was recording some lead parts & was very happy with the tone, so much so that I left my entire rig untouched for a few days to do some more tracking. Same guitar, not a single knob touched, and suddenly everything sounds noticeably darker & less...

Every splawn I’ve played has to get stupid loud to really shine. Stupid loud on their 50 or 100w amps isn’t terribly high on the master volume.

Beautiful. I was watching the used section on their site daily for a while, hoping to find one half as nice.

Honestly I kind of have days where I feel like that on the drive modes, then days where I’ll grab a certain guitar & it just sits wonderfully in this tonal space none of my other amps do. I’d really love a chance to hear the 50w version side by side with this one. I’m wondering if I’d have been...
