Nice special edition! Texas Red??? What speaker does that have?
And you just gotta love the creamy chicken heads!

Ive got a blonde, thats in my avatar...but I need to change my speaker.
Do you ever record your amps? Im still trying to work that out *shrug*
Thanks for noticing Sprocket, yup the Texas Red special edition Blues Jr.  It has a Celestion Vintage 30.  I bought it when they came out (6 months ago ?), they had one in my local store (limited edition and all), and I just had to have it.  It will be a classic amp one day.  I havent played it all that much to tell the truth. It probably doesn't have 30 hours on it yet so it isn't even broke in.  In my new space I will be able to play it more.  It sounds great with my strat for sure.  I havent yet recorded my amps, I find it so easy to get great tones (with no noise) from the BR machines or Pocket Pod I havent yet tried to record them.

Ill bet that Epi will sound awesome when cranked...Maybe a Boss GE-7 would work well with it.  You can adjust EQ and even boost the signal quite a bit with one.  I hope to hear sound clips some day!

You are right Davo, I am using the Line6 Pocket Pod in front of it and it works out pretty sweet, I get all the EQ and other effects and reverb.  I can get a pretty good approximation of a Bassman I find, with my Epi Sheraton.  Great little amps for very little money (about what you would pay for a stomp box) and it gets damn loud with a real nice tube sound.

If you loose track over a chord progression, play as fast as you possibly can. Nobody will know. Thats how they invented bebop.

Your right, the amp is 50 watts pure tube power! :D

It sure is! And it's just as tasty as it looks :)

Quote from: Bosko Schwartz on May 29, 2009, 03:57:03 PMWow, what an awesome thread!  Thanks to Kody for directing me here.  Nice to see everyone else's studios and gear!  I have no pics at the moment, but here's what's in my little recording room:

  • A red sparkle Jackson Drums custom drum kit next to the window in one corner (hand-crafted drums made by my dad, who owns his own drum company); the kick drum is a ridiculous 28".
  • A midnight blue Rickenbacker 620, aqua-blue sparkle Danelectro DC-3, and a black Schecter Model-T Diamond Series bass in another corner.
  • An antique burst Art & Lutherie acoustic guitar next to the door.
  • A Roland Juno-D synthesizer against the wall, next to the acoustic.
  • A Behringer B-1 condenser mic on a stand in front of the drum kit (used for vox as well as a room mic for recording drums).
  • On a small, sad little cramped desk facing the painted wall, between the drums and the synth, there sits the massive, hulking, ultra-non-portable, super-badass alien-robot music recording machine from the planet BOSS (a.k.a. the BR-1600 CD), an ART Tube MP pre-amp, and a pair of M-Audio Studiophile BX8a monitors.
  • In the remaining corner, you can find my sanity curled up into the fetal position, weeping.

Bosko, I think your pictures are the best - as I just used my imagination to visualize your play room...

I have my gear scattered and still boxed up from my move from Nebraska to Alaska...  Will try to post some pics later...
