Setup for my next jam

[Graham]

So speaking of amps, Graham, how are you getting along with your Marshall?

I really like it. :mrgreen:

I use it quite often now.

Glad to hear that. It really sounded nice at Guildstock.








Especially when you were playing my guitar. :mrgreen:

OK, so I didn't get it and I still don't. I thought the manatee pic was funny though. However, I need an explanation as I was watching a Merle Haggard concert for '06 at Billy Bob's :mrgreen: and they had two amps with mikes set up just like that. :?

ok, grammy, I'll explain to you, and to all who did not get the joke, if you don't mind default:

on the photo there is a microphone heading to an marshall amphead (amplifier without speaker which needs a cabinet like the one it is standing on) which of course does not contain any speaker because it is an amphead, opposite to the fender-combos (amps with built in speakers), merle haggard uses on stage. :wink:
so what do you expect this microphone to do, when there is no sound but hum coming from an amphead???

I find my singing sounds the best using this very setup.

Well I guess I was too subtle (an LTG first) because I really did immediately notice that the amplifier was being miked and not the speaker.

I'm presuming that the tweed cover was a cosmetic thing - to match the grille cloth - but perhaps also served to help with cooling?
