Just sold it last week actually' date=' I bought the Mesa 5:25 Express Head and Cab you see on the other pic earlier this year and nothing comes close to it overdrive/distortion wise. I also have 2 Marshall pedals the Echohead and Regenerator and between the 2 I cover all the time based effects I need. I will just add a tremolo pedal and that's it.

Cool. I agree about Mesa overdrive... and a simple pedal setup is always great.

Here's the lyrics if the Aussie accent and background noise make it tough to understand....

 

:-k

 

Big Balls by AC/DC

 

I'm rather upper class high society

God's gift to ballroom notoriety

And I always fill my ballrooms

The event is never small

The social pages say I've got

The biggest balls of all

 

Chorus:

 

I've got big balls

I've got big balls

They're such big balls

And they're fancy big balls

And he's got big balls

And she's got big balls

But we've got the biggest balls of them all

 

 

 

And my balls are always bouncing

My ballroom always full

And everybody comes and comes again

If your name is on the guest list

No one can take you higher

Everybody says I've got

Great balls of fire!

 

[Chorus]

 

Some balls are held for charity

And some for fancy dress

But when they're held for pleasure

They're the balls that I like best

My balls are always bouncing

To the left and to the right

It's my belief that my big balls

Should be held every night

 

[Chorus]

 

And I'm just itching to tell you about them (we've got big balls)

Oh we had such wonderful fun (we've got big balls)

Seafood cocktail, crabs, crayfish... (we've got big balls of them all)

Big Balls by AC/DC

 

Reminds me of the whistling song from "Bridge Over The River Kwai".

 

I was well known to English Kids, but us Americans weren't in on the joke!

 

Hitler has only got one ball,

Göring has two but very small,

Himmler is somewhat sim'lar,

But poor Goebbels has no balls at all.

Okay...why are almost all Texas girls knockouts?

 

Thank you, Dan. I agree that girls in Texas have this sassy thing going.

They can change a tire and bake apple pie.

They're good running barefoot and are not afraid to eat ribs.

I was born and raised in Mexico, though. Came to Texas when I was 13.

Latin girls are yummm. I won't date one, 'cus we're crazy, but hey...playing guitar comes standard for many of us. ^^V

Ah, yes..... I had a few girlfriends in my youth who were Latin. Step out of bounds and they'd knock knots on my head faster than I could feel 'em with both hands!

 

Do you speak with an accent? ('cause you type with perfect English).

 

I LOVE Texas accents...not as thick as the "deep south", but still sultry!

I went to Vegas and walked a few blocks to the store. The clerk asked right off, "are you from Texas?"

That should answer your question. I wish I had the sexy Penelope Cruz / Salma Hayek accent and missteps.

My ear for languages is too good, though. Every few hundred words one comes up I can't pronounce right and the THICK accent comes out. It makes me happy.

Have guitars ALWAYS been so damned big in Australia?

Every pic I see of Angus looks like his SG is the size of a bathtub.

 

And two basses?

 

Just sayin'....

 

[biggrin]

 

Haha[laugh]

Was only 13 man. Go easy [cool] [cool]

 

2 basses = double the bottom end! Or so we thought at the time...:-k

I've always felt there was plenty of room for two Bass Players in a band. One to hold down the basic thumping rhythm, like a Micheal Anthony, and one to do more color, fills, and even solos, like Billy Shehan.

 

Take Steve Vais touring band, for example. Three Guitarist, and one Bass Player. When Billy starts trading licks and simultaneously tapping with Steve, the bottom end drops right out.
