A music store swapped the cabinet and gave me the Fender) - Marshall Valvestate 100 2x12 Combo (pedal platform. Used a Digitech RP-12 for all my tones) -Line 6 AX 212 (Absolute shit).. -Mesa Rectifier Solo 50 with Standard Recto 4x12 (kept this until 2 years ago) -Mesa Mark V (sold) -Mesa JP 2C (sold) -Mesa TC 50 Combo (sold) -Kemper 600 watt with Cabinet (sold) -Mesa JP2C (yes, again) with compact Recto 2x12 (best cab ever) -Revv G50 with 2 x12.

My first gigging rig was a Peavey Studio 110 red stripe and an Epiphone Les Paul- no pedals. And the worst gig we ever played- turned out to be the best. Our drummer booked us without saying a word to any of us, we had only been together for about 6 weeks- we didn't have enough material worked out to do a show- not even close. That said, we felt we couldn't back out- we were booked, so we play- that's how it works. But- we decided not to charge the guy who was throwing the party- and to tell the crowd that we just got together and basically were just going to have an open practice session and let them listen. There was between 150 and 200 ppl there- and it became a really fun, intimate venue where the ppl got to interact with us, watch us make mistakes, watch us work stuff out- and they loved it. They would ask for a song, it would take us 2-3 tries to get it right, but then we would play it for them- and they ate it up. We let ppl get up and sing- they loved that as well. It turned out to be the most fun I have ever had at any show- and I met my wife that night. X wife now, but that's my fault really- and a much sadder, longer story I don't want to get into. We were together for 10 yrs though so- that night had a huge influence on the rest of my life.

I'm a bass player who plays AT everything else. My bass rig history isn't embarrassing. But my "playing guitar in public" gig history kind of would be. The first band I played guitar in was a friend's band. He'd broken his arm and needed someone to cover his rhythm parts while he sang. I figured I could do that for a couple months. That guitar was an Explorer copy, by Hondo. My dad was an Electrical Engineer. He and I had re-wrapped the pickups in a few of my guitars. The Explorer had the most successful set of those. I used my friend, Pete's amp, because mine was only good for bedroom volume. His amp was a Lab Series L5, a fire breathing monster of a solid state amp. It was probably the most effective solid state guitar amp I ever heard before digital stuff existed. Second public guitar rig was infinitely more serious, nearly a decade later: MIJ Fender Strat into a Bedrock BC50 amp.

funnyly enough I kinda get the point of the Laney powered cab: it's not for gigging musicians - it's for the clubs and their backline! In a world where more and more people tour with modellers these things actually serve a purpose for small venues where the backline sound does matter a bunch. I work a club like that and just running the guitars through the PA sounds ass since our small club has a small PA.

Rob's story about the JEM reminds me of a story Brian Blessed told, about when he was a child he met the artist Picasso and asked him to draw him a picture. Picasso drew a picture of a bird, and Brian asked what it was, to which he replied, ''it's a dove.'' Young Brian wasn't impressed, and said, ''that's not a dove!'' Then gave him the picture back. That picture, many years later, sold, I think it was for ten's of millions of pounds. It was a life changing amount of money anyhow. 😱
