Old People: How did you feel about the JCM800 at the time of its release?

Exactly, I never listened to that fucking trash. You girls love that garbage.

Do you boost ?

Rarely. As soon as you add a boost or overdrive it becomes a different type of sound and is less touch responsive. Typically I use more like a effect than the main sound.

I'm sure there are some, but those old Mesa amps all need some fixing up by this point. Probably not the best thing to take on the road. They are very complicated amps.

This aint yer Mama's triple Rec and with todays crappy tubes good luck.
My biggest beef with old Boogies is no 16 ohm tap. Ive used a loadbox but another link in the chain of 500 volts that could get blown to
- smitherines.

...and this?

the spandex years...

I saw racer X at a dive bar in Fresno in circa 88?? We were into thrash at the time so although we knew they were insanely good we were sooo anti glam we called them posers and stuff. Side story the singer of Racer x who was not very good (Jeff ? later was the drummer for Badlands toward the end) currently is a friend of a rock climber friend and they work construction together in the Reno/Tahoe area

Jeff Martin. Good singer, drummer....lots o talented dudes back in those days. RacerX wasn't exactly glam tho lol. Closest thing to metal without being a chug chug no midz machine.
