The CC sounded particually good with SG shaped guitars I thought.bluesgeek wrote:very impressed with all the AC30's especially the CC, sounded great for the cash
The only thing I didn't like about the JCM900 was that it had way too many knobs
If anyone's interested, my JCM800 will be up for sale in the next couple of days - I'm only using the cleanish channel and pedals so I'm going back to a combination of Crate and Bassman or Gunn.

Gelato brought along the much maligned JCM900 100 watt head through a Legacy 2x12 cabinet.
Obviously anything that G plays through it is going to sound amazing, this boy is seriously talented, but I just can't see where the 900 got such a bad rep from, it sounded fantastic. Clean, crunch to HiGain, if I was buying a Marshall I would go straight for that one. It just sounded fantastic, exactly how I imagine a Marshall to sound.
One question Gelato, what type of valves are in that one? El34s or 5881s?
![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
not only that, Gelato was the first one there at 12.10pm
had the pleasure of laying down some rhythm for him while he noodled away and all i can say is: the man's got tone and skillzzz

Great day, enjoyed catching up with youse fullas again, and Timi and thehenderson (closet nu-metallerz, see pics) for the first time.
As far as volume goes, I didn't think it was as loud as the last jam. Though that was in a hall half the size. Thanks to those who let me play with their toys, Gelato's Yngwie and thehenderson's Strat 'n' Carr were well cool. And I had a quick go on BG's Ash! Special. Some groovy pedals there too.
Shame someone had to let the side down by bringing a bogan SG...![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
