This is a video response to Tone Priest's question about modding a Hiwatt clone build. If you are a paid member here on Locals and have tech or other questions, I'll be happy to give you a similar video response when I get time! Thanks so much for all your continued support.

This was the full jam session on the Gibson L1 I did recently. As you probably know, I usually will jam for a while on something and then pick a few highlights to show in a final video. A ton of stuff got edited out. It's not all great, but it's not all bad either. I find it kind of soothing, this quiet acoustic stuff. I'm never sure where the mood will take me.

I made this quick video the other day for a friend and figured I'd post it here as well. He wants to get started in slide, so I was quickly showing him some open tuning concepts to make the transition to slide a bit easier. Kind of like learning slide without a slide.

Are you going to be making a big video of your trip to your buddy's? Seems like a treasure trove.

I think he may be onto something with phase matching in that weird network. If they just wanted to cut gain wouldn't they just put in a voltage divider? What amp is that? Curiosity has got me on that one.

When I built my 'Prince of Darkness' amp I copied the front end of an ancient Gibson amp and I gotta say, it sounds really good.

This is why I will NEVER buy another front-load washing machine, unless it's industrial grade!
