Cleaned and revived my trusty ol’ MESA/Boogie Bass 400+ w/ its 12x 6L6 worth of pure tube power and 4x 12AX7 in preamp. Pairing w/ 2x 1x12 Boogie (EV) cabs, various 🎸, fx, etc. This amp handles them all w ease and sounds superb. Demeter VTBP 201 preamp in Return also works 👌😎

Of all the wild amps, 🎸 & fx I own, it often boils down to pure simplicity w/ 🇺🇸 Std Strat, clean tube amp (Oliver PA-156 here), twin 🔊 cabs & basic fx, e.g., Wah, Boost/Drive, Buffer, Echo/Delay/Reverb. Clean pallet lets instrument and fingers shine thru 🙌 🎛⚡️😎✨💥🏹

My Eminent ‘Model Twenty’ arrived. What an innovative speaker. Diaphragm ‘cone’ area of 4x12 cab, but weighs 20lbs. Plays octave higher & lower than trad cab & disperses sound around much better 🤯 👨‍🔬 🤙 #guitar #speakers #music #guitargear #amp #studio modeltwenty.com/guitarsoundsci…

I’m starting to detect a pattern here. While jamming at a friend’s house today, we looked down and saw this (pic 1): my Joe Sonic (joe gagan, guitarist ) Musonic / Colorsound-inspired JG ‘72 wah (pic 2, right) + my homemade Klon clone (aka ‘Klown’), together w/ my goofy, tie-dyed feet🦶🏼🤷‍♂️🤙

Jeff. Man, what a loss for the guitar community, the music community, the whole world. One of the absolute greatest ever, a true legend, and just as relevant now as ever, it’s like his playing, never stopped improving. Rest in peace, master of the guitar.

Jeff Beck was actual Magic…always getting better and pushing the boundaries all while being the coolest of cats with a wicked sense of humor. We won’t see his like again. RIP Jeff Beck

I met Jeff Beck when I was 17 and I was glad to know a guy like that, a guy who was able to show me how this guitar playing thing should be approached and that’s still very much the case. Jeff was a wondrous soul and we already miss him tremendously. Jeff Beck #JeffBeck

I suspect Jeff Beck had a more well-developed sense of humor than he typically showed in public. Here he is, perhaps channeling his inner Nigel Tufnel, in a Fender doc. RIP Jeff.

Day of extremes. Started w building treble boosters and FET preamps for fun; ended w Kernom Ridge. Former = first overdrive-type circuitry; latter = latest “augmented analog OD” tech. All have their place in the mix ⚡️🤙✨ #kernom #kernomridge #overdrive #overdrive #distortion

Homemade Fuzz pedal based on Colorsound One Knob Fuzz. PCB made from copper clad strip, enclosure from Whole Foods cardboard bag inserts, colored w/ Sharpie markers. Sounds good. Octaves ring thru w/ 🎸 tone knob down. Fun. #fuzz #effectspedals #guitar #guitargear #fun #hawaii 🤙
