My gig wasn't chasing tone back then. It was straight through the amp with a Dano spring reverb in-between. So I really wasn't paying attention. 40 years later I've got more guitars and gear than I need, and not much more to do with them.
I get that, Doc. I remember those simple days. I even have trouble remembering and comparing the sound of stereo speakers or equipment from one store to another. The best I can do is remember what I didn't like. :lol:

I feel your pain, Doc.
