Found the above link very amusing with some interesting revealements especially about an AC30. Well worth a watch. Is there anything like this for the Shadows ?

Thanks for posting, great footage and wouldn't it be great to see something similar for the Shads tour and many others ? 8-)

I agree Dave. Pretty simple to make for any band. It certainly keeps the likes of us happy. So what you see is not always what you get.

That was very interesting. So the wall of sound Isn't. And what the audience hears is usually an AC30 (in Marshall clothing) . 14 to 60 gauge strings and we cringe at 12-52s!

Many thanks, Bill.

I love the idea of a relic sticker looking like his favourite saves all that expensive stuff from Fender. Sounds like a good business model there.
