[LedZeppelinisgod100]

yeah im sure.

is the two channel jcm800 a special model? or is that the normall jcm800? sorry im not familiar with the jcm series.

[craigmcarthur1]

I think there have been one a two channel models over the years. I am no JCM expert either. I just remember the studi engineer commenting on the specific model of that particular amp

[LedZeppelinisgod100]

sweet! what head is it? lead 100? thats what it looks like

im not a big jcm fan. theyre a bit too metal-high end-mega distortion for me. which is kinda like slash's tone, who im not a big fan of.

but WOW very very nice PRS. jealous of that. :P

[craigmcarthur1]

Yup its a Lead 100. The clean channel is excellent, the overdrive channel is use very seldom because of my Boogie. But it has a nice warm vintage EL34 tone.

I wasnt a JCM fan at all until I used this particular model, it sound huge.

[guitarkd19]

thats a buttload of money just sittin in that room...

[guitarrhythymfool]

Ok, not all. Most of them. Mainly whatever delays you have in there.

I also want the Hiwatt. yussss.

[guitarrhythymfool]

So many pedalsssssss

I want them all xD

[Howardtripper]

which is better boss pedals or an effects unit like the gt10

[craigmcarthur1]

The Hiwatt is great, I picked mine up secondhand, its older than me!!!

I would love a Mark V for live use and an older JCM800 for studio use. Played a two channel JCM800 whilst recording my bands EP and loved, sounded fantastic on the ep. Always going to be an ever ending list of gear i would like tho, expensive business guitar playing!

The PRS is a SC25O in trans amber with 7 series pickups.

[LedZeppelinisgod100]

ive been saving up for a 1959 superlead (I love that crunch that Page gets out of it) but im also seriously considering hiwatt, like a custom 100.

and what model singlecut are you playing?

[craigmcarthur1]

Yup the Hiwatt is my favourite piece of kit also. Sounds tremendous and it eat pedals up, all pedals seem to sound good thru it.

I was or am I should say a massive Gibson Les Paul fan, but the Singlecut in terms of tone and feel suited me better, so worth a try if your looking at a new guitar in future
