just caught up with this, proper made me chuckle.

i think i just had a bit of a panic that we'd be copying each other. think we're going amp shopping together, i'm toying with ditching the mustang II as i never use it and picking up a micro terror or other tiny head for home use.

Wanna buy an Epiphone Valve Jr head?

And don't worry about clashing sounds or lack of separation, I guarantee you will sound completely different.

The only people who will really notice will be guitar geeks and musicians anyway, and thats a very small part of your audience.

I keep having to remind myself of this. As long as you play in tune, in time and nobody's drowning anyone else out then 90% of the people listening will be okay with it. Everything else is sort-of secondary really.
