keep it simple-classics ala '57 that's what comes stock - Epi's version of the 57 Classics. what kind of sound are you after? Brutal metal? Jazz? More of a bluesy sort of crunch if you know what I mean.... I can only really compare the sound I'm after to a sort of Lou Reed meets Rolling Stones........

A know a guy who put one on an Ibanez hollow body (not the same guitar I know) but he said it didn't keep in tune very well when after he attached the bigsby..... I don't know if this would be a factor. I have always liked them though, a bigsby is the sole purpose I wanted a Gretsch Electromatic.

Are the AC15's loud enough to gig a decent sized venue?

I had Ruby tubes in my Hot Rod Deville but didn't think too highly of them to be honest. @ 1:54 pm (POST #50) I have a Fender Hot Rod DeVille 2x12 combo for sale. It's a 60 watt tube, has 2 twelve inch fender special design eminence speakers. Two 6L6 groove tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes. Im ba...

Re: Advice on 6L6 tube brands

Okay, I need to retube my Twin I think. After a few shows where I completely cranked it, now it's breaking up at around 5 on the dial, and kind of cutting out a bit (just like how the Univox head did after a while). So I'm shopping for sets of 4 6L6's. It has Groove Tubes in it already. Based on wh...

I've been looking at AC30's but their are so many variations. It's pretty confusing to choose a good one. Plus the prices seem to vary. Quite drastically too!

Beefheart was brilliant. Musically amazing! Lyrically hilariously elegant. Trout Mask Replica is a perfect example of this! Song's wise, Making love to a vampire with a monkey on my knee really tells you everything you need to know! Captain beefheart and His Magic Band nothing short of brilliant.

Another thing with Beuys is that you (I, I don't know, I don't want to apply my thoughts to y'all) need to remember that he was really the first to do that sort of shit, I mean you had DADA etc but he was a bit different, and I think if you want to appreciate his stuff you have to push out of your ...

Look at 'Foals' E.P and Album art work by a guy called Tinhead.
