Default Rules? What Rules?

There's a recording video series hosted by Eddie Kramer and about half of
the first tape is an interview with Les Paul. Worth the price of the series
alone.

When I was a kid my best friend's older brother used to stand there with
his Tele copping Les Paul and Otis Rush licks because that's what Beck and Page
were doing. He played in the Gold Rush Blues Band; they opened for Zep in
Hawaii on their first world tour.

It's largely his fault there is an unattainable guitar tone in my head I
have yet to hear again, but Les Paul and Otis Rush definitely deserve blame
too... ( And Fender tube amps just don't smell the same anymore either. )


I can't help you with the tone in your head. But if you miss the old smell
of the fender tube amps, just go spill some cheap beer on them once a week
while you are playing. That old fender smell will be back in no time. :-)
