"The amp I use is a Peavy TKO 80, which is absolute junk. I can't stand amplifiers with too many controls. I like to just be able to plug in, turn it on full, turn the treble up, turn the middle down, put a lot of bass on... I don't want to bother around. All you want is a good twang. Electric guitars need to be raw, not beautiful. You can work on a bass or a keyboard sound, but just shove a mike in front of a guitar amp, and that's it. They're raw by nature."
