Um... Some people have too much money and have misconceptions about where tone comes from. I think Eddie proved without a doubt that it's from the fingers. This cork sniffing "purity of the circuit" stuff is a marketing gimmick for amp makers that want people to spend thousands on amps with chosen top shelf components. You are right. I'm not the prime marketing target for this amp. Maybe I would be if it had more utility. But, a non-master volume amp with no effects loop and no built in attenuation doesn't scream "usable". Let me clue you into something else. Plexis were never "great". It was the tool available at the time but the legend of the plexi is one that is blown out of proportion.
All with love, brother!Indeed. I did see a really hot brand new 2021 antique white CU 24 with natural binding today that got me all hot and bothered. So, I go both ways![]()
If it's unnecessary to have that official endorsement, it's equally unnecessary to worry about some machine printed autograph on the rear panel that's irrelevant to the tone or build quality of the amp. It just doesn't matter.
I do from time to time think of a little list of give aways to save my wife from having to figure out what to do with everything.Even though I know you're going to outlive me, I secretly dream of being in your will...![]()
Has anyone put humbuckers through it?
All I've heard so far have been strat styles playing Hendrix ish
Being serious for a moment, I have thought the same thing. There’s no guarantee that my grandson will follow the guitar path, and while he just turned 6, even 10 years from now, dumping 17 guitars on him is not a solid move even if he does. If he doesn’t, my poor wife wouldn’t even know what to do with all of my stuff.I do from time to time think of a little list of give aways to save my wife from having to figure out what to do with everything.
I fear that may be lost on our American cousins
Yeah, all of the mods they did to it to stop it from blowing tubes. Doug discusses this in the video."a newly-documented “Authentic Hendrix” Touring Circuit..."...Touring Circuit?...
Les knows quite a bit of British history.
Who knows he may have heard of Dave (Earl of Harrow).
“And His Heavy Friends”; I remember.I fear that may be lost on our American cousins

Well, you're right about misconceptions. TONE does not come from the fingers. Phrasing, style, etc. comes from your hands and your playing, but a properly fretted note sounds the same no matter whose left hand is fretting it. But picks, strings and every other single thing in the chain makes a difference in the tone.
And I'm a little beyond gimmicks when it comes to tone and circuits. I know how they work. And if you don't like a good plexi, that's fine with me, but I've heard more than one of them sound great, and obviously, hundreds of thousands of others have too, or they wouldn't want them.
