That's great I also did a few attempts in the past with singing and playing - it's not the best but since Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Mark Knopfer all had bad voices I think that's not the point. Only to more or less get the pitch and the message of the lyrics

yeah and these guys back then had no fancy light effects and stage show.

That's the time I truely loved AC / DC

Also tuned into this performance here - really cool that's also something I would go for. I love the idea of a trio specially with a standup bass. Because that one has a sound which lays the foundation for many cool things. Still working on forming a band who would like to go that direction - that's not so easy ....

Today I was in a rehearsal with a possible new rock band I am joining. I did not take my gear with me since they said I can use the amp they have during the rehersal. And I must say this amplifiert totally blew me off the ramp. So much pressure, warmth and sustain in the tone by just pluging in the guitar to the amp without any effects. After the rehersal I spoke to the guys of the band and we talk about the amp and it turned out that this Marshall JCM800 head had been modified by amp guru José Arredondo. After a deeper talk the band admitted that they needed to buy this amp for there last guitar player and the price was really high. I said to myself " holy cow " so I did some research. These modified amps are like the lost golden nuggets in the amplifier world. Here a few links I found : https://reverb.com/item/10791165-jose-arredondo-modded-marshall-marshall-1973?sv1=affiliate&sv_campaign_id=101248&awc=67144_1709401969_7954e1b5c00af7c158f0aadcf94f21a0 https://www.guitarworld.com/news/dave-friedman-jose-arredondo-eddie-van-halen-mystery-amp If you ever run into one of those very rare José Arredondo amp modells you better check it out ! A very big wow !
