Hey dudes
My name is John and I have been playing for 30 years. I am classically trained though I don't keep on it. Here's a just a small demo of what I can do.
Solo, created by John Weglarz and presented through ACIDplanet.com I own a Marshall JCM 800 2210 from 89 and it was an awesome amp till I had it re tubed. Now it sounds like ass. Whatever. I really dig this forum, I have learned a ton of stuff thus far and thank everyone for their contributions.

Yea I would recommend a delay pedal for you. They really help thicken up ones sound and make your guitar sound bigger. One plus or minus though depening on how you look at it is they can make you sound faster then you really are. Take care John

Yea I have been fighting my sound now for a while. The tubes one puts in their amp really makes a difference. I have learned this first hand and I am now paying for it. John

Tubes are best when bought in matched sets.. Amps can be eazy to bias if the amp has the adjustments. Most better tube amps do.. A good book on the subject.. How To Service Your Own Tube Amp at Stewart-MacDonald It is what tought me and got me going..  Bias Tool and Manual @ Groove Tubes |

Thanks for the info. I will check it out. Biasing my amp is a PIA because I have the reverb tank. I can't just slide out the chassis, unless some one has some pointers I'm not aware of. Anyway good meeting you. John
