I still play my chech eurotrash guitar thru a no name homemade amp ment for a record player. I do have some great pedals; big muff and tube screamer.
I love this rig. Gear is cool but I think most of your sound / tone comes from your mind and fingers. Sometimes ZZTop will pull into a city and buy cheap
junk from a pawn shop and play it at their gig. They still sound like ZZ Top
regardless of the gear.
