Sounded awesome. And I'm almost back to that........
My feedback thread is here.
Guess what? In a while, you will be imagining that some other rig will be "better", easier to use, more appropriate to the current music project or easier to transport.
I have "rescued" tapes like that of my brother's university band using Roland R-Mix software and severe DAW equalisation. CAUTION: Removing all the hiss and cludge is no guarantee that anything listenable will be revealed.
Funnily enough that’s around the time I got involved in guitar forums too, they’re a bloody catalyst for GAS imo, but I can’t blame them entirely.
Simple set up of
Laney Lionheart 20w
Epiphone Sheraton with BKP MQ’s
Fulltone OCD (V1.3)
Line 6 DL4
That was my set up for pretty much 7 years and it sounded great. It still does.
Drummers are always changing cymbals and tom configs, oh and snare collections get vast.
Bassists don’t really use pedals as much as guitarists but it is normal to have a P, a J, a fretless, something with 5 or more strings etc.

It sadly started to go properly wrong and went away in about 2005ish. Since then I had a couple of different Amps, most recently a 5:25 express, which was a fine thing - very versatile well made, and just very proper.
Last year I saw another 84-40 for sale reduced to £100 from maybe £300 - and bought and paid for it online for nostalgia and because it was cheaaaaaaap. I went and picked it up about 12 months later (!) - maybe June this year - as the shop was miles from me - and I was in no hurry.
I fired up up out of curiosity to see if it sounded and played like I remembered, and brilliantly it did!
I think I probably convinced myself that I loved the 5:25, as it was pretty pricey, and on paper it was the perfect amp for me at the time.
I put the 5:25 up for sale very shortly afterwards - and currently my bargain £100 valve amp is once again my only amp and I'm quite happy about that... (until I buy your Atma @welshboyo !)
At the moment I'm looking for:
* Hamer Watson, SS2, Vintage S, T62.
* Music Man Luke 1, Luke II
Please drop me a message.
Atma is still here ;-)
He gave us an overnighter for £500 and we did 3 songs. Was great fun, and although the demo didn't come out as rocky as we wanted it to, it was great to actually have something to keep from that era!
My sound is way better now...!
What does bug the snot out of me is that I was much better at playing back then, as evidenced by a video I've just gone looking for from my second rehearsal playing with that first band. Bloody annoying, that.
