Incomming PIGNOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Black Friday deal

Post by ajaxlepinski »

$33 bucks off at Sweetwater... in TWEED!!! Only $116.95 with free shipping....
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail ... -amp-tweed
I recently read that a Pignose track was one of the several other guitar tracks that were layered into Elton John's "Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting".
Of course, the Pignose was used in other classic rock recordings made by Clapton, Zappa and Joe Walsh.
Always wanted to try one!!!
As Pablo once said, "We don't buy things because we need them... we buy them because the are on sale" :rawk: :rawk: :rawk: :rawk:

I haven't played one of these in decades. If I remember right, they always sound like shit in the room, but somehow, with a mic about a foot out, you can get some half-decent rock tones. I'm sure those with actual skills can get better, if the rumors and myths surrounding it are to be believed.

At any rate, should be a lot of fun.

Ha! If it were only $33 I would have bought two... one Pignose to keep and one to see how many distortion and fuzz pedals it takes to blow up!!! :lol:
