Listening to Minor Threat in 8th grade was the inspiration I needed, but I never acted on it until junior year of high school. When I first picked up the guitar I was in the middle of reading Spray Paint the Walls, and decided to learn a bunch of Black Flag songs. I think Wasted was the first song I learned to play all the way through.

I learned fix me first. So easy.

Just picked up a 1975 Marshall 100 watt JMP. It s been modded with an extra gain stage. push pull gain boost and a depth knob for added warmth. It has 6550 tubes as well. God damn does this beast sound amazing

How loud have you gotten it? Also sweet guitars. I need an SG in the worst way. Or an Explorer.

Thanks man, I've had that particular SG for many years. It's a 1976 Standard. She plays great, I highly recommend them. Seeings how the rig is in my apartment I haven't gotten it too loud. I have band practice on Sunday though so I'll bring it then. I haven't told my bandmates yet either so it'll be a cool surprise!

I would hope you have a significantly lower wattage amp for noodling around inside. That would be a whole lotta amp for your only one.

Scored some vintage Marshall cabs. A 1968 8x10 and a 1978 4x12. I think I m good now

Nope, this is my quite amp. My other amp is a 100 watt Plexi with a Marshall 8x10 cab. that's the loud one. The JMP has a master volume on it so it still sounds ok at a quiet volume. The Plexi doesn't have a master volume. It's either loud or louder.

Well that's some awesome gear you have. Do you run any pedals?

Thank you. On the Plexi I run a Radial "Hot British" pedal. It's got a pre-amp tube in it and it sounds real good. Very similar to a JCM800. I crank the Plexi and use the pedal for a little bit of an overdrive. Almost more like a power soak/attenuator. I also use a volume pedal, I stack 11 pennies and wrapped them in duct tape and tapped it to the base of the pedal. That way when I stomp down on it the volume doesn't totally drop out. That's how I get a clean tone.

The JMP doesn't need anything! It's just pure awesome.
