Look it goes up to eleven..

[Vic Shaw]

Didn't have much chance to get out this weekend so I played around with this. It's not quite how I wanted it but I have attempted this twice now and the amp is bloody heavy. This is quite a challenge, the 1st time I shot it I got too much light in the knobs and it looked like really bad bokeh. This time I don't have enough on them. I shall try again, but it involves moving the sofa as the room is long rather then wide.

I like it without the knobs I think. Very graphic. The only thing I'd do is crop it a tiny bit on the right so the picture ends on the grill material.

damn I did actually crop the 1st one to end at the grill. it does look better. I was going to add a guitar in there also, but I don't have a nice looking one.

 

[Pete Askew]

How about if you position it so you just see the fret board?

 

[Vic Shaw]

that was my idea at 1st and it might be worth a try. I can see this is starting to be a little bit of a mission for me. I'll have to see what nice looking guitars my friend has at the moment, I know he has a nice Marshall amp that has got some better material covering the speakers and his kids haven't spilt wax on the top of his amp unlike mine( one of the reasons for the low angle)

Very nice - I like the punch of red as well

I can't see 11 on the dial, your fibbing aren't you, it only goes to 10.

No it's goes up to eleven.

Just in case anyone missed it

That's American made too! Nice tight photograph!

This is off the wall but I must say we went to Yoshi's Japanese in San Francisco in August and saw Peter White perform. Peter White plays jazz guitar, if you don't know and he even made a remark about the Fender amp that he has and told everyone in the audience that his controls only go up to 11 too! Funny!

Ithink Spinal Tap jokes get stolen by most guitarists, My guitar teacher use to point at a Gibson on the stand then tell me 'not to point at it in fact don't even look at it'
