Title: Bonamassa explains his amp set-up

This may bore most of you to death, but for an amp-head (ahahahah see what I did there!) like me then this stuff is fascinating.

Thanks shobet, I found that interesting. I especially liked the Two Rock ( very Dumble-esqe). It was also nice to see another EV12L user ; as I have a pair which have not yet been used to their intended capacity. Demos such as that are a great way of getting into the player's overall philosophy of tone production.

Cheers !  :)

Was fascinating for a bit, then I turned the volume back up on my Tokai Love Rock... and bugger me, my AC4TV sounds better!! (Er, it wasn't going through my laptop speakers though :lol:)

Yeah, I liked the Two Rock as well - ditch the other three for me :D

I thought that the Silver Jubilee sounded the best out of all the amps in isolation and also better than his tone with all the amps on.

Great tone, his playing bores me to sleep though. I do like that he is a total gear nerd though.

Yep - me too.
