Two posts in a week, crikey!
So I loaned out my Marshall half-stack to a chum of mine on a semi-permanent basis. Pete Orr runs a small Hendrix/Cream/Doors cover + some originals band and he wanted something more "traditional" than his MkII Boogie, and I could really do with the space, so…
Pete's an old chum, and it'll be nice for the beast* to get used in anger again. My Blackface Twin has gone on loan to my godson, Eliot, and the Blues Deluxe to Cressy, so I only have the one amp at present: the Dickinson. However, I shall not sell my amp collection: it is the culmination of more than thirty years in the biz. Over the years I've edited the collection down; and if I absolutely needed to (and had the space) I'd just make do with the Marshall and a couple of pedals, actually. (It's what a volume knob is for you know: it might go up to eleven, but the sweet spot is often somewhere between seven and nine.)
So instead I bought an Apogee Jam to use with GarageBand on my iPad. Well, you would wouldn't you?
*An old nickname for the Marshall.
