For the purposes of nothing but pornographic Stingray images here is my Tobacco burst ClassicRay5 with John East preamp [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-07/20140730_173849_zpsnblgtvmm.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-07/20140730_173849_zpsnblgtvmm.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/quote] Ah yes there it is with it's 5 string twin! Re-strung it with some Ernie Ball Flexsteel's yesterday, man it's got some bite now!! Doing an open air 1 hour set at the football club where I manage today so can't wait to get my amp cranked a bit and hear that growl! I've said it before and I'll say it again Pete, that tobacco burst is beautiful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Yes I bet them strings will help it sing, the ones on it were clean enough but probably 4 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Wow, you weren't wrong! Did a little outdoor gig yesterday at our football club with a vocal only PA, new strings, RH750 cranked more than usual, through my Big Twin 2 and it just growled! So much bite to the tone. Helped that we only had one guitarist yesterday so there was plenty of space to find a spot in the mix but it sounded awesome. It could be my new number 1 after that performance! Edited August 4, 2014 by ern500evo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I'll be the first to admit occasionally the 2eq can be tricky to get to sit in the on stage mix although it usually sounds great out front still, on those gigs you will be reaching for the bongo but when they are good there is something in the 2 eq sound that is just that bit more awesome than anything else!
