Mesa/Boogie Studio Pre-amp, a way to get great sounds with a direct guitar
or bass signal
Fender Princeton reverb amplifier, heavily modified, and lots of vintage
tubes, and alternate speakers and capacitors to change the tone. Right
now it’s happy with a telefunken for the pre-amp, some JJ’s
for the power, and a Standard Soviet power supply. Sometimes I will swap
in a British Power supply, or even pull a tube out for a more grungy sound.
