That sounds awesome. What other gear were you using?

 

I have to say though, I was a little distracted by what sounded like a ridiculously noisey pedal. What's up with that constant high pitched whine? It sounds like a whistling tea kettle.

Thanks! Sorry, I was having some grounding problem. I was using a Marshall Class 5 set at low power attenuation. No drive/distortion pedals were used on this one. Its all Class 5 tone set at full volume.

Mmmmmm... crunchy... me likee! I am definitely putting a Class 5 head on my xmas list.

Yea, at $349 for the head and not to mention the coupons many music vendors are offering for the holidays, you can probably pick one up for about $250. BTW...the Class 5 was at full volume and all tone controls at 10.

Thats sounds awesome. I love the newest version of the class 5 and the melody makes sounds so cool

The new Marshall Class 5 was what I was playing through. Yes, the new Class 5 has a power attenuation switch that the earlier models did not have.

I love the MM. i think the Gibson MM is the wink wink to everybody. Its as powerful as a LP and regular joes can afford em. I swapped out the stock pup for a JB jr. a lot more balls. and sounds great through any amp.

Melody makers are really great guitars, I love them, that single coil might look puny but it's really powerful compared to, say, a fender standard single coil.

 

I moded mine and it's the only Gibby I kept, I will buy one or 2 more in the future, one to mod and one to keep stock.

 

That amp sounds great too, and, great playing man! [thumbup]
