  • This year marks the twentieth anniversary of my Y2K guitar rig, and I want to take another look at it. I've found photographs, I've collected clues, and even bought some of my old gear back so that we could take a journey together. You're welcome.

      Neuri He did NOT call Hotel California a "metal song"; he SAID that band (that he was in) would play Hotel California, and *then* (meaning: the next song they'd play) a metal song. Why, since Y2K, have people slowly stopped being able to read, write, listen, hear, and learn, and be able to pass on what they've learned? It's like people have slowly become more catastrophically stupid.

    20 years ago... I was about to age out of a group home, owned little more than a black MIM strat, Fender Bassman 25, a Boss blues driver and a trash bag of clothes.
    I remember laying out guitar magazines to the pages that featured songs, riffs and anything that I could read and play.
    Not that long ago, I happened across an old spiral notebook, pages riddled with tabs and lyrics I had written out.
    I noticed there were smudge stains here and there.... From sweat, sad songs, might have had tears...
    I was a nervously troubled young man who just wanted to find a way to express himself.
    Even today, when I pick up a guitar and close my eyes, for a moment, I feel the need to escape into the instrument.

    Now in my 50s, I've looked back at what I used in the 80s playing in a cover band. I had a Mach I Flying V (no idea, but it looked cool and was cheap), and a Peavey Backstage Plus. It had a cool reverb. The only pedal I owned was a Boss Compressor that my mom bought me after I asked for a chorus pedal. The store owner told her that they didn't have a chorus pedal, but the that the compressor did the same thing. Poor mom. I got some use out of it though, and I had a blast figuring out how a band works together to pull of playing songs. I eventually bought a Crate min-stack. I loved that amp! I wish I'd have kept it. I've only ever owned solid state amps, and I'm not ashamed.

      One thing cringier. Your lack of understanding the difference between a tube amp and solid state, and why there’s a difference when using Overdrive, Distortion, Fuzz or Boost through them.

      No, J Cruise is saying there isn’t much difference between a nice tube amp with an Distortion pedal(don’t know why he went with distortion, but maybe cause SS amps don’t usually get an overdrive tone), and a Solid State amp’s distortion.

    I love the solid state sound, fast, direct, controlled, nothing gets lost like in the saggy, spongy sound of the tubes. You just need a good speaker like an Alnico Creamback or Gold and the tone and response are just there, after all the speaker is extremely important but often gets overlooked. Most solid-state "haters" haven't actually heard an ss amp through a real cab.
    That's what I have personally concluded anyway,
    I play from country, surf and rockabilly to post-2000's metal
    and for my playing style and classical musician mindset it's just perfect.
    No distractions from playing, just solid, consistent and accurate representation
    of what I'm trying to say. Also unbeatable "in your face" sound for recordings.
