Re: Finally I own an Epiphone

Twang.. man that looks classy. Suits that particular burst well.

Thanks for the intonation tips - and tips on the hole filing.

Was talking to some guys at the music store about a decent tube amp - biggest issue is that my current place might as well be made out of paper, with neighbors really close each side who are generally quiet, so I try to keep it down a bit.
I suspect my average volume wouldn't even warm a tube up :P I also have to spent a fair bit of time using cans, which really sucks with the little Marshall, as the overdrive channel is a little too overdriven in it. Very fuzzy, but seriously limiting if I'm playing something that just needs a bit of gentle distortion... and by this I mean, it's too dirty for even most Metallica songs!

My thought was to try something like a Blues driver or something through the clean channel, and see if I can get a more crisp sound, and a bit more control out of it.
