Heya all...
Was reading an old interview with Ritchie Blackmore the other day and he stated that he used to use an old reel to reel Ampex deck placed before his amp to drive the pre-amp stage of his 200 watt Marshall Majors.
This reminded me that i used to use an old MiJ Coronet practice amp to add overdrive to my olsd Plexi.
I'd patch the Marshall's chanels and put the small amp before the Plexi.
I used that for a while til I got a '68 SG and the thing howled and whined like an air raid siren and I had to retire the setup.
Has anyone else ever experimented with their setup in this way?
