I think their playing was a good part of that sound. I saw them play live several times in the 80's and they sounded great. Billy Gibbons has a nice guitar tone.

The Peavey Classics are nice amps. I have a friend who says the Delta Blues is one of the best amps he's ever had. He's had some pretty cool amps, so it must be worth checking out.

I've got the one on the making of the Joshua Tree. It's pretty cool. I would like to see some of the other ones.

I can second that. But it was super and it was tape. So they called it...supertape? :eek:

Huh? :confused:

I use to play gigs with a guy who had a Mesa Boogie similar to what you've described. I don't know what model it was, but it was a great sounding amp. Congratulations! :)

Coconuts Music still stocks Maxell high bias tapes. If you have an FYE near you, they may have the tapes also. They are owned by the same company.

I usually get the Maxell XLII 60 minute tapes. I've also used Sony CD-IT 60. They're both high bias.

Way cool! :)

My mother use to drag me up to Graceland when I was a kid. Elvis was one of a kind. Great voice and charisma, too bad he fell apart in the 70's. :(

I thought it was Letterman too! :eek:

I had a 60w Dean Markley tube head for a while back in the 80's. That was a nice sounding amp. Probably an ebay item?

That sounds like a good combination. I've always wanted an AC30. The ones that I've heard or played through have sounded great. Congratulations! :)

I played an Ibanez semi-hollow body at a shop about a month ago. I can't remember the exact model, but it was only about $300. It had a nice tone and played well. Could be what you are looking for. Of course, Les Pauls and Strats are great for blues.

After years of retail sales management, I have become highly skilled in dodging customers. :D Just kidding!

Way to go! Tube amps rock! :)

The seller has taken care of the guitar 50 years. It will only take FedEx a couple of minutes to destroy it! :eek:

Big Muff is good for fuzz tones. I've used in the past to thicken up a Strat or Tele single coil. Haven't tried Ratt or Sansamp GT2.

I thought Warren DiMartini was the guy from Ratt?

SRV was at the time an alternative to all the shredding that was going on. I think he helped revive interest in blues. And his tone was unique at that time. He didn't invent that sound, but he sort of made it popular again. Sorry for getting off topic.
