This thread is meant for people to ask for help achieving that perfect tone and for others to help.

I'll start.
I need help getting that perfect Get Back tone. Get Back is by the Beatles for those who do not know.
Thanks! :D

Get Back is easy to emulate just get a Fender Twin and an Epiphone John Lennon Casino. Seriously though to get that nice tone that John got you really need P-90s to pull it off and you need to roll back a good bit of the treble on the guitar and amp. Curiously enough I got a pretty good aproximation of the Get Back tone using my Blues Jr. and that uses EL-84 (34?) tubes as opposed to the Twin's 6V6 or is it 6L6?
When I set my Vox AD120VTH hybrid to 2-12 blackface I can get pretty close too.
