  • nice!!! add a wee bit of sustain and cut back a smidge on the distortion....and you will be perfect!!! i am a player myself...ive tuned my ear thru 30 + years of playing boston tunes...youve got a nice sound,man.....

  • @fisherking1966 Thanks!

  • if i wanted the boston sound but didnt want to buy all of the rockman stuff what should i get????????

  • I'd start with a Rockman X100 which is the original headphone amp. I used mine as a preamp for a while. It's about $50.00 on Ebay. I think Dunlop also still manufactures a version of it as well.

  • WWWWOOOOO!!!!! Tom would be proud!!!

  • Need a shults power soak brother everything else is in tune

  • @revwjh If you can find a Rockman II B try it out, and you will hear a different distortion that is slightly dirtier.

  • @egcroan Additional single set of two (2) output tubes as you would have in a 50 watt amplifier is easier to match than four (4) output tubes so they tend to sing or have a sweeter sustain especially if cranked all the way up. 100 watts is certainly louder and most bands use them for touring, but for recording nothing sounds sweeter than a cranked 50 watt amplifier. Judas Priest as well as AC/DC have confessed to having special amps they record with, and use different amps for touring.

  • @coopmister00 Actually the Boston Sound on the "Boston" & "Don't Look Back" was before all this Rockman Derived electronics and was just a Marshall Head turned all the way up which is why he needed the first invention the "Power Soak" to attenuate the volume while allowing the Pre-Amp & Output Tubes to get really hot and sing. Most "Tube Amplifiers" are also designed as a Push-Pull configuration where you need a minimal of two (2) tubes in the output stage, but you can use multiples.

  • Sounded Really Good , I bought a Rockman when they 1st come out beofre the X 100 Its still Kicking Butt ! Danny

  • Ya!!! So Cool. Loved it the Lead Paul. Maybe turn vocals up solo down abit for balance. I do everything with ear phones so what do I know.

  • nice job.
