+1 !!! Wonder if its real or a clone..either way by far my fav clip as well.

But I still think one of the greatest tones ive EVER heard is this clip of a guy who recorded this track with a Real TWreck Express and a REAL '59 Burst!! Absolutely sends a shiver down my spine! --especially at the pickup switch--
'59 Burst w Express Clip

 

That Liverpool clip is cool but I'll take the Blockhead clips anyday for the type music I like.

To me the blockhead has much more a harsh Marshally edge than the Liverpool. But for some styles that edgyness is cool too.. Liverpool sounds much , for lack of a better term, creamier. Which I like alot. Chuck, what did you think of the 59 Burst/Express clip I linked to? Is that more your sound or are you really into the serious cutting tones.

Martins3325 - dude that clip RAWKS!

 

Yeah I like that clip alot as well. I still really like those Blockhead clips better.

Chuck

 

The clips of the Blockhead are definitely honky that is what I like about them. As for small not sure I can tell if it sounds small but to me I just love the tone. Again to each his own. It sounds more Allman Brothers to me and that is what I love.

That's Geetarpicker in that clip...
Yeah thats the guy..the Strat SSH clip is a bit more "metal" sounding to me..I definitely like the '59 Burst clip alot more.

I really like the Liverpool clip alot too..I thought it was probably Bernie from BB and Stingers..hes a great player too and has several real wrecks as well.

Id like to maybe get some hobbiest to build me a liverpool clone someday..someone who just wants to do it cuz they like building amps for fun, not for profit. I have a tremendous respect for Ken and would not like to contribute to someone making money off his designs while he doesnt. But Id sure like to have one. Hell id try it myself but id probably electracute myself..lol

 

hahah. Some of those are nice but when it comes to playing the **** out of the blues, I'll take my $350.00 Ampeg VT-40 over all dem other clips...but WTF do I know... heheh...

 

Ya, I dug it. It was good. My only point was...I didn't see God...who I do ocasionally bump into when I'm playing my VT-40 .

 

Which actually gets us into "in the eye of the beholder" territory which is where so many of these threads go anyways.

 

Well..certainly not an attack..but I, personally have NEVER heard ANY Ampeg that can come anywhere even close to the 59 Burst/Wreck Clip I linked to ..but there is also a meager ~$250,000 difference between the setup on that clip and most others on this planet. lol. And like you said beauty is in the ear of the beholder.l

 

Actually, your cost estimate is not even close to being accurate on the Burst/Wreck rig, however, I can promise you that if you plug that player into an Ampeg V-whatever or damn near anything it'll sound good.....

but as was said previously, these threads inevitably lead to LaLa Land....

 

Yes, I'd heard it before. It sounds good. Liverpools are all a bit different, the best I've heard recorded is Babaji's on some amp fest DVD I have. It sounds stunning, almost as good as his AC30/4 (on the same DVD).
Could be the player though...

Hogy

 

No doubt that guy can play his ass off...and you would know it even if he were playing a gorilla amp... from the clips I hear on this site theres a lot of great players here..its just few and far between that I hear someones that I say "wow" about thier tone as opposed to their playing. I mean obviously a guy like eric johnson can play too--massive understatment-- but when I saw him I thought his tone was awful, though obviously his playing is stellar--dont beat me up for that guys..just what "I" thought--..others revere his tone. For me only a few guys tone really get it..and theres a little something extra about, and its probably a pretty short list .. Early Gibbons, Early Joe Walsh, Brian May, Gary Moore, and I remember thinking Frank Marino had a killer tone...maybe a few others that dont immediately come to mind. So im always kinda very pleasantly surprised when I hear a guy who isnt "famous' in that same revered tone circle. And that guy's clip for me is.

How far off am I on the Burst? Last I knew..was like 225ish..must be going up exponentially each month..not that im looking for one..lol
