The hell if 20w is all you need. I am sure he probably didn't get it new however, so chances are he didn't spend 900$ on it. I've had 100w tube amps before myself, they played just fine at lower levels. Then if you ever need it, you can crank the thing up louder. Paying 900$ for a practice amp is r...

Also had to post this. Zappa makes chorus actually sound good from about 2.00-6.00: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOeOlcR_CgE Edit: if anyone can tell me who the guy singing lead is, I'd be much obliged :tup: Bobby Martin sang it there, but he didn't on the original. Still good though. :tup:

Re: Tasteful Use of Effects

So in a thread in the All Music Area, Tony and I were discussing CKY's use of the octave effect (I don't know what brand/pedal the guy uses). I said the guitarist's frequent use of the effect was annoying to me, and he said that it was one of his favorite parts of the sound of that band. I love oct...

I'd have to say that it's CKY's signature sound. It doesn't annoy me in the least. I'd have to say that I'm not annoyed by effects at all. Hell, my band's guitarist doesn't even sound he's playing a guitar ever. Seriously, I'm more annoyed by hearing a fucking Les Paul running through a Marshall now...
