Having dossed around with a bunch of my favourite guitars and an elegant sumptuous green leather wrapped Lazy J until about 01:30 this morning, the birdsong had me awake at 04:45 again and a voice in my half awake head yelling "don't forget the Lil Elvis" at me. It's going back at about 07:30 this morning so I need to get my arse into gear. Up, stumble around for a bit, coffee, tear up the Turnpike to KettHall. Another coffee, find Ol' Lumpy still in tune despite a fairly punishing few minutes with Tony yesterday, and doss about at some significant volume levels.
Anyone reading this got one? Combo or a head? I'd love to get a proper education on this amp. A Lazy J really speaks for itself - one of those amps that I will never deserve to have, can't do it justice, but its so damn adept; so absolutely impeccable and accomplished it brings a lump to your throat. Does mine anyway. Enough of the Lazy J.
Don't you think it needs a reverb facility? a little spring? I probably had the wrong guitar for it this morning - a fairly hot and shrill Desperado A5 equipped Ol' Lumpy should probably have been relegated to the rack, and replaced with a 74 or 75 (sorry for the Connells earworm there) SE500 with some of Tony's awesome A2's - maybe even the TE500 with its soft neck humbucker would have had the amp explaining itself to me.
Don't think I can't accept that I lack the talent to communicate with such high end stuff, but I was OK last night to be honest - so it's not just that.
Someone ping me over a YouTube clip of themselves taming that tremolo - something other than aggressive blues too, because I know I could handle that - just need to practice and learn some songs. I don't care about the various demos out there on YouTube - they don't help me - I want someone to talk to me and address my question specifically - what is this amp for? What do you use it for?
I know this amp is a champion, but what sport are we playing? I get the slight impression this amp's owner would be interested in the answer too.
