<r>I am a sucker for tone over heavy distortion... As such I like the amp to make up 75% of the tone with 15% from me and 10% from any FX.<br/>
<br/>
For years I was OK with a Session Rockette 30 - British Built solid state amp - Clapton used these amps to record the August album on and I can see ...

<r>...really surprisingly, my Fender Super Reverb (40w 4x10) is very controllable - more so than my Tweed Deluxe (12w 1x12) which just booms at you!<br/>
<br/>
Put a transparent drive in front of the SR and you have great drive tone at sensible levels still. I did have a 59Bassman which was just ear ...

<r>OK - awkward one. BREASTS get in the way! Is inevitable that you in some indirect way get them to hold the guitar or themselves differently and you can't stand behind like you can do with a male and amend bad technique!<br/>
<br/>
Also how do you tell them how to re-manicure without it sounding ...

<r>...I get round that by immediately tuning up and saying - "Right I thought we would try this today.... it takes into account the items we learned last time and moves them into a different scenario". Often, I don't even give them the chord sheet!<br/>
<br/>
To be honest, if they not practiced it ...

<r>I find is about 'go with the flow'. Is no point enforcing a song on someone who has no 'feel' for it or its genre.<br/>
<br/>
Taking the basic student scenario: They have a few chord books, piss about on YTube and have songs of yore on their iPhone etc. BUT they can't fret and always always ...

<r>In this recessionary time, just getting a new student is bad enough, let alone get them to pay up front!<br/>
<br/>
I haven't enough students to lay down the law, but I have a friend who teaches SAX (and gets £60 /hr!!) She charges cancellation and they bloody pay up! <br/>
<br/>
Sadly, there are ...

<r>If you have an old BOSS ME-5 - Don't sell it! <br/>
<br/>
Few people realise that the ME-5 incorporates the classic BOSS pedal internals that are now vintage in their own right including the: CS-2, DS-1, OD-2, RV-3, EQ-1, CE-1, DD-2, BF-2 all together with a switchable Noise Suppressor that calms ...

...this is way too subjective to give a meaningful answer... is trial and error... and sometimes, sheer luck!

<r>I am selling a new Fender 2-Button Footswitch Vibrato/Reverb 1/4"Jack <br/>
<br/>
It says it is for:- 65 Twin Reverb 65 Twin Custom15 65 Super Reverb 65 Deluxe Reverb 64 Vibroverb Custom 63 Vibroverb Custom Vibrolux & Vibrasonic and has PN 099-4058-000<br/>
<br/>
However, I have been asked if it ...

<r>Try and find a Pignose G40V - 2x6L6 3x12AX7 40w - wired the same as the early Marshalls ie a Bassman with a master volume. Gives a wonderful warm tone and is LOUD and lightweight!<br/>
