Sounds great, esecially with that Fender amp. Nice twang with a bit of rumble.

Sounds great. Did you use any overdrive or boost with that? If not, what kind of levels did you set on the amp? The reason I ask is that I've always been put off looking at Fender Twins because people say you can't overdrive them. From the sound of your clip I reckon a boost pedal would push that into a fantastic O/D sound.

Gary, The "overdrive" came as a result of recording the clip to hot on the computer..kind of like they did in the old days before tube compressors.
Most old Fenders will overdrive..but you got to crank them! The tweeds will break up easier than the black or silver faces tho'.
It wasn't my intention for the overdriven sound..just in a hurry late at night. Glad you liked it otherwise. I love the BKP's!

Thanks to all who enjoyed my playing and stuff, I thought I was just noodling something quick to get a sound clip added here because when I was researching the BKP-90's there wasn't one, so I wanted people to hear how great they sound. I will add more clips soon and get a better "dirt" clip as well. Thanks to Tim Mills for the great help and amazing fast delivery across the pond!

Hmmm.. well, I have spent alot of time in Texas..
Tha chords are actually Pink Floyd's  "Breathe".
I'm a huge fan of the whole spectrum of guitar playing in all styles.
I'm thrilled anybody thinks I sound like anybody. Cheers !
