What song does your amp nail?

tone1

Morning all
I’ve just bought a Cornell Romany Plus 1x12 with Reverb and when I play through it without effects, it absolutely nails Green Onions by Booker T and the MG’s amongst other tunes.... What track does your amp nail or remind you of when you play through it? 
I have only played my Les Paul through it so far as my Strat is in bits at the moment..... For you younger members here is the track....

Tony, I am 99% sure Cropper was using his beloved 5E9 Tremolux for that session, so it makes sense.

My Twin nails Cliffs of Dover (!)

I’m gonna have to change my picture (Is it called my Avatar)?

I had a Cornford Roadhouse 30 once and it WAS the Marshall on Pearl Jam’s Alive

I don't have an amp any more but the Princeton I got rid of late last year was perfect for the Nancy Sinatra version of Bang Bang. That was about all it was good for though!

Pigonose G40V - most stones 70s onwards and in particular Midnight Rambler -  A Tele helps too!

My Hughes and Kettner Puretone head easily nails Kossoff’s and early Billy G’s tone.

Did he have a Tremolux?  Green Onions was his Harvard with an early 50's Esquire.

@Gassage - are you having the same level of success with your fingers?

My tweed deluxe does a very good la grange.

On the evenings/nights I used to drink gallons of beer, wine and whiskey (sometimes in the one session) I usually nailed every one.

However, not as much when sober

Last year I sold my beloved Fender Twin Reverb II to Essbie of this forum and I hope he is enjoying it.

Absolutely nails the Robben Ford "Help The Poor" overdriven tone; drive channel with pre-gain and drive full up, all tone controls at 10 and mid-boost engaged.

Destitutionalised 
Scarred Earth
Killers and Endgames

My EVH absolutely nails them


it also helps that I’ve mostly written them as well I guess?

Yeah, for ages.
