The rig has been completed.
Thursday night I found some busta in the city selling a 50W MESA Boogie Single Rectifier Solo Head for $800 ($400 off retail price). Friday evening our bass player tipped me off on some one-legged British guy with a small music shop in a nearby town selling a closed back Laney 2x12 cab for $350. I picked that **** up real quick real ick, hauled it all up to Ken's mountain top lab, stacked em up, the planets aligned, and it sounded ****ing monstrous. Ultra thick and punchy. My Telecaster, the Single Rec, and the closed back cabinet combine for a massive low end with some serious gut churning southern twang. Sounds unreal paired with our other guitarist's Gibson Les Paul through his MESA Boogie Dual Rectifier / MESA 2x12 cabinet.
It's done. I can finally stop spending money.
