Guitar wise I switch between my 88 charvel 475XL special and my 2018 Les Paul traditional.
Amp wise a 4 gain stage jcm800 I’ve designed. It’s not a jake e Lee or YouTube mod. It’s a ground up voicing done by ear the hard way. Jeremy has a copy of the schematic, he actually said it’s close to his hellion build he designed but still different.
The Laney, Bogner, and Aldrich all get the most playtime. The metroplex gets the least - hence the classifieds. It can do high gain too but that’s not what it was built for - the others just outgun it.
My Modified 1989 Les Paul Custom Straight In To My Hopkins Pandora Modified 2203 1980 JMP.
I removed all of the 1989 electronics (Stock Bill Lawrence etc…) & set her up with a 498-T & 490-R single conductor wire in addition to all 500k pots wired 50’s style using single conductor wire & Sprague OD .022uf caps like my Standard.
I love this set. I can play for hours. It certainly sounds as if I need to for certain.
Thank you @Bash_Man for such a great compliment.that sounds THICK.. very nice.
@Beandust thank you very much for the kind words and support my friend.Sounds really good!. Dig that tone, and playing, very nice.
Hello brotherman. Thanks for the listen, posting & kind words.Sounds killer David! Great stuff for sure, I'm rocking the 1987 you modded for me everyday. I've my own modded Les Paul these days.
