I got somewhat Luther Perkins stylish sound from my Fender amp with my Fender Esquire. I know, it lacks hell of an distortion, but it ain't easy to get right. Also I know that Sun recordings used echo, not reverb, and also I know that Luther used Silvertone amp in most of the Sun era songs, but it is quite fancy to find Silvertone style sound from Fender amp. This is played in a few different Luther styles, 'cause he varied his style depending what guitar & amp he used. Check Cortexmelons vocal removals for more...

    Well, if ye ever come to Finland to play some gigs, I'd be glad to be a visiting guitarist or something...

  • Turn the tone up and move the pick up selector all the way down .. give it that twangy sound

  • @CrypticNexus777

    I'm using Esquire, so no need to use tone knob. Also I'm using up and downstrokes. Or were you just advising other players?

  • @tsukka Pretty much anyone reading

  • Remember also Luther played up-strokes..

  • Gibson even made a special order 25 cycle GA 40 that cost around $50 extra over a normal 60 Hz model. The 25 Hz power was used in OLD generating stations, and Niagra was still using it up until very recently for industrial customers who did not want to retool. If you lived where they had 25Hz power this was one of your few options for a guitar amp. A normal 60Hz would fry. Great sounding amps, either model, and getting hard to find.

  • VERY COOL!
