    Anything with Barrie Cadogan is an immediate clear the schedule and sit back kind of thing.

    Wowza! Love this series. Keep it up. And I hope you could hear/feel me hooting, hollering and clapping when each of those jams concluded. Such great playing and amazing sense of staying within the “retro” genres that showed off the amps in context. And it was fantastic to watch you guys played off each other so well. Add a bassist and drummer and give me an album, instrumental is fine- but I’d buy it if it’s just you two noodling. Cheers.

    Oh, I had an Ampeg like that in the 70s. It was badly in need of repair, but it worked. Wish I had known it was worth getting fixed at the tender age of 12. AFAIK, Ampegs have Baxandall shelving tone stack. That would explain the midrange rasp.

  • @michaelsicowitz362
    @michaelsicowitz362 7 місяців тому +2

    I had that old Gibson amp, maybe 75-82. The tremolo bled into the volume. Imagine an amp where the trem adds volume, the reverb too. It was a great soup on ten. Great speaker in there too. Of course, totally an idiot to ever sell it. Regret that as much as any on a long list. Don't ever tell me modeling can do that. Overlooked: pre-CBS Pro Reverb, amazing

    Old electronic components fall way out of original spec as they age.
    People are paying thousands for amps that are 60+ years old because they think the sound is ‘better’ but that sound is nothing like the tone they had when they were new.
    That ‘vintage’ tone is basically a degraded piece of equipment.
