tonylemieux's Pedalboard

This is a great sounding Les Paul Standard, made in late 2001, they told me it was a prototype, which makes sense since it has the burst bucker pickups that didn't come out till the next years models, maybe the store picked it up at NAMM? It has the big '59 neck.

This version of the klone family is more tonally versatile than most. Also has lots of output, as a boost would work great, I use it as a drive pedal, Its a hard clipper driven hard but I use it for light to medium gain. It’s got a mid push, but not as extreme as a TS. Great tone controls and great sound!

Used it a couple times for a direct Vox sound, sounded really good. Right now usually using it without the cab sim as a distortion pedal, to get a Vox tone with a treble boost added(which is what you get the more you boost the gain) tons of tonal options and gain on tap, very versatile, and a good backup in case my amp goes down👍

I use the Jimi sound, but the others seem workable too. I figured if Trower uses it it’s got to be good, an it’s great! The more I get used to it, the more I love it 🥰

Love the look of it, very classic, almost gold top looking in the copper under the lights, hard to see the sparkle in dim lit lighting. Flat neck radius better for slide than standard radius. I thought it would be the closest to a Clapton strat with the maple fretboard, vintage noiseless pickups and mid boost electronics, and I was kind of right, though I really never use the electronics lol. I have pedals for that. Sounds really good, different than my 60’s model strat, less spanky I guess because of the pickups, they maybe have more mids, and they are silent👍

I love this little lightweight amp, great tone, compact, you’d be surprised at the bass response it puts out with just a 10” speaker. I wasn’t fond of the stock Jensen though, so I swapped it for the same Alnico Jensen found in the handwired RI version, sounds much better, less flub, more mids, less aggressive high end, kind of makes it sound a little more like a brownface or tweed I guess. Great tremelo and reverb as well!
