John, do mind sharing what the great sounding amps/effects you are using in the BYCU examples? I've been playing classic rock for years and just can't squeeze that sweet blues tone out of my JCM800. Now that I am moving more toward blues, I want to make wise investment on an amp. My main guitars are a Les Paul Standard, Lone Star Strat & '63 RI ES-335. Any guidance on this would GREATLY appreciated! Thanks, John

I did not play on the recording for BYCU (the first book). (I am on the other 6 CDs.) That said, I know the guitar player used a Strat, and I think he played through a Matchless amplifier, though I don't know the model.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Hi John!
Can you give us some information on the sound setup on More Blues You Can Use? I also think that the guitar on MBYCU sound great. Which guitar did you use? Which effects?
Thank you!
Greetings from Austria!

Hi Alexd,
Thank you for your kind words. The setup I used for More Blues You Can Use was very simple. I played a Japanese Strat through a Fender Blues Deville amp (with 4 ten inch speakers). I still have the strat (great guitar), and wouldn't mind having the DeVille back (I sold it to buy a Vibrolux reverb.)
I always play 11's on the strat. Back then I was using GHS Boomers.
I hope you find that useful.
