Re: Question: 2 Separate Speakers into 100w Head.

As Willow said, if you run the amp hot continually you may harm the speakers. Running those two together will give you a safe level of 130 watts ( being double the power of the lowest power speaker ). Problems can occur in that an amp is capable of generating occasional output spikes well over it's ...

Re: Talk to me about fuzz

Personal fave, the old Coloursound Overdrive. Although called an overdrive it has a very Germanium fuzz character to the s...

And maybe a two tone 54 Strat, just for completeness. Although it would be the only guitar I wouldn't/couldn't play.

Re: Pedal Steel Guitar?

Anyone out there play pedal steel? Has anyone got one? are they as much of a pig to play as they look? I have one. Standard E9 tuning. I don't play it as a feature instrument ( clever licks etc ) but use it as a background texture. They do take some getting used to. It's a bit like playing a lap st...
