I had an outside gig with my blues band Saturday night. The weather was damm near perfect. I brought my Heritage H535 and my Tomatoe soup Strat. So the Z Lux combo got the call for the night. It was just an amazing night! When I use the Z Lux, I use with the boost on, and just adjust the guitars volume and tone. The only time I touched the settings, was to turn on some Tremelo. The 535 sounded so good, I never even got to use the Strat. It also helped that my playing was on the plus side of the scale. I was able to hit all the notes I wanted. Plus the band was sounding pretty good also. Great night!

Nice. Yeah, I think a lot of people may be under the impression that the Lux is mostly a single-coil friendly amp, but it just slays with humbuckers IMO. And if you sound good, you feel good. And if you feel good, you play good.

I love gigs like that!! But I hate gigs like that, when you know and feel you were at the top of your game, and then someone shows you a crappy cell phone video of it and you think that is how it came across - sonic cold shower.
Congrats Bill!!

I had a similar experience Friday night. Everything was just clicking and my guitar tone was huge. Fortunately, no one recorded any of it so i don't have to reassess the tone or the performance.

You try and try....every gig..to do the best you can. But some nights, it just clicks. Your playing flows out of you. Your technique is better than normal, your phrasing is better than normal, and you come up with more imaginative ideas...on the fly. (I guess for me, as I improvise most of my playing)
