    Samson is good stuff.

    And you made a great point, there is much involved in the chain to finding your "tone". Walk into any club and I'm willing to bet you'll sometimes be faced with hearing hum...

    Not an expert but I can give you my experience. I started playing a ton of years ago when wireless was crap (old VHF stuff). It really changed your tone in a bad way, was unreliable and I've even...

    I looked and it is all solid state. I was thinking tubes but if solid state I'm not sure why they tied the boost into the effects loops. With transistors you can pretty much do whatever wherever.

    I've used a volume pedal in my effects loop as a poor man's boost. This might use the same concept and is a cheap way to get in-between the preamp and power stages of the amp to boost volume when...

    I've known Audley Freed for many years and always thought his 6 part series on playing professional guitar was worth a listen. Very humble guy with serious chops and a nice resume to boot.

    The Rebel 20 head should be costing around $550, not 700. Type it in google and you should see a vendor or two within that price range.

    Acoustic or electric?
    Make sure to learn both the rhythm and leads throughout and all in the correct time (play it with the backing track or with drums, ec)? If you did, that probably puts you in a...

    I've been very impressed with Danelectro effects. Maybe not the best on the market but bang for the buck, very hard to beat. I've used their drive pedal (cool cat Transparent Overdrive v1) on...
