  • This year marks the twentieth anniversary of my Y2K guitar rig, and I want to take another look at it. I've found photographs, I've collected clues, and even bought some of my old gear back so that we could take a journey together. You're welcome.

Why, since Y2K, have people slowly stopped being able to read, write, listen, hear, and learn, and be able to pass on what they've learned?

    20 years ago... I was about to age out of a group home, owned little more than a black MIM strat, Fender Bassman 25, a Boss blues driver and a trash bag of clothes.
    I remember laying out guitar magazines to the pages that featured songs, riffs and anything that I could read and play.
    Not that long ago, I happened across an old spiral notebook, pages riddled with tabs and lyrics I had written out.
    I noticed there were smudge stains here and there.... From sweat, sad songs, might have had tears...
    I was a nervously troubled young man who just wanted to find a way to express himself.
    Even today, when I pick up a guitar and close my eyes, for a moment, I feel the need to escape into the instrument.

It had a cool reverb. The only pedal I owned was a Boss Compressor that my mom bought me after I asked for a chorus pedal. The store owner told her that they didn't have a chorus pedal, but the that the compressor did the same thing. Poor mom. I got some use out of it though, and I had a blast figuring out how a band works together to pull of playing songs. I eventually bought a Crate min-stack. I loved that amp! I wish I'd have kept it. I've only ever owned solid state amps, and I'm not ashamed.

    That pedal board is almost literally the sound of late 90's alternative. As much as most of us would want to sneer at those Danelctro pedals, those tones sounded great when you remember what the songs sounded like in that period. It also makes me feel old to think that we're looking at 1999 from a historical perspective....

  • @panosskentzos
    @panosskentzos Před 3 lety +4

    I love the solid state sound, fast, direct, controlled, nothing gets lost like in the saggy, spongy sound of the tubes. You just need a good speaker like an Alnico Creamback or Gold and the tone and response are just there, after all the speaker is extremely important but often gets overlooked. Most solid-state "haters" haven't actually heard an ss amp through a real cab.
    That's what I have personally concluded anyway,
    I play from country, surf and rockabilly to post-2000's metal
    and for my playing style and classical musician mindset it's just perfect.
    No distractions from playing, just solid, consistent and accurate representation
    of what I'm trying to say. Also unbeatable "in your face" sound for recordings.

      - Park practise amp (10 watt I think, but it was loud as hell)
      - A distorsion pedal, bought from a charity shop, that I wish I could find. It would be vintage now and I have no idea what it was
      - A Zoom 505 MkII, because it did every sound you could ever imagine for £70.

      Y2K. I was partying with my then girlfriend in Soulard, STL. One of our friends rented the bar and closed it off to the public. It's so funny that Sting's Brand New Day was the first song. Kind of weird, yet positive. I never thought anything would happen. Must have been a Simpson's moment where Analog is more natural to find your sound. My boss has transferred to that, my best friend did as well, he's toured the world with his band, but they've both signed onto digital only. It's like freehand art vs. digital. There's a reason that we exist. So even though I take laptops apart and figure out software issues all the day long, I appreciate your show, and it totally tickles my brain.
