Also, gawd knows how they get this stuff, a used (looking like bloody new) Bad Cat Hot Cat head  8)  and a Koch Powertone II 1/2 stack  :twisted:

Sam look into the laney VH100R. Has the gain of the GH series but with a fender like clean tone. But it's easier to get the clean and dirty tones with its footswitch

Had a Screamer


I had a screamer last night too... the people next door complained that she was just too loud....

jk!

I've heard good about the Genz Benz El Diablos for sure.  Also I've been digging the Laney GH50Ls too.  Laney TTs look cool too and have midi support!

Depends... it's a quick, easy transcription tool for one.  And two, I like messing around with MIDI.  None of my amps have it and it wouldn't be a major deciding factor, but I'd certainly have some fun with it!

Here's some I did (the first one is the most complete... play it all the way through, trust me, and the last is just something I threw together quickly and the middle is something not complete but not a hackjob).
