Just waiting on my trophy for most inconsistent player. I've earned it for 15 years in a row.

I got an EVH 5150III 2x12 a while ago... year or two maybe... i tugged it up to the second floor... and after a short time I tired of it. It just wasn't happening. I had an SG Standard that was nice and light... i always liked it's tone... tried different pedals just to play with... pulled out the crappy JJ preamp tubes... but nah. I kind of stopped playing again. I tugged an old '95 Peavey 5150 2x12 up to the first floor a week or so back, with a Standard Custom. The magic is there. Tone... liquid joy... I ended up taking the Hamer up to the EVH to try... it sounded killer. The EVH just hates that SG that always sounded good in other amps... hates it. I still think the Peavey sounds better... funny, people complain about it's weight at 84lbs, 12lbs less the a 4x12, but no one complains about the EVH 2x12, that also weighs 84lbs.

I always say, “if it’s too heavy, just get stronger”….

Albert King, Jr. told me I'm a badass guitarist and got my number last Friday. And he really is the son of THAT Albert King. So that made 2022 worth it.
