Cheers - I was hoping the guitar and amp combo would come across OK rather than my playing.  I really should learn how to record stuff properly, oh and play more accurately! :lol:

I dunno, I reckon that's accurate enough for just an electric on its lone... :D I've seen footage somewhere of Billy Gibbons playing like that, without a band - and he's not a great deal more accurate... (just call it "feel" if anyone pokes holes in it :lol:)

And the guitar and amp tone are fabulous.

Cheers Andy.  I call it feel too  ;)  I don't know how all these super accurate guys do it, they seem to play every single note and pick stroke perfectly.  I don't think I'll ever be able to do that!

Thanks Don - it's an awesome rig, and it feels great to play through.  The 'regular' JTM45 is even nicer at home volumes with the 4x12 - I'm now using that as my main practice rig.

You have some great combinations of guitar and amps to play with, and I know you can't get the exact sound via soundclips and laptop speakers etc... but I was really liking that there tone!

Yeah, the crispness of the bridge pickup and the slightly loose and warm neck pickup comes through OK.  In the room, it's a big bold and bright tone - not like a lot of LPs, which can sound thick and flabby.

Wow, congratulations! A great LP really is a thing of beauty, and Francine's without a doubt one of the best I've seen.

A slightly old thread I know, but I'm been having trouble with YouTube and I've just done a quick test upload of me mucking about with Francine though my JTM/100.  Very similar to the last one I uploaded, but I used my 45/100 half stack instead.  You can hear the woodiness of the guitar better in this one, plus you can see it - albeit in the shadows  :lol:

Usual sloppy playing from me etc:

Well that hasn't helped my GAS and jealousy at all.  Very nice playing and guitar and amp and everything. :)

Too kind Andrew  :oops:

It's a great rig, hopefully one day I'll get a gig where I can use them both LOUD!
