Been a while since I've run my Galaxie on Channel 2 @ gigging volumes ..... That said, it was cool stuff indeed. iirc, the speaker was a G12-65 ... no effects. Definitely a good bit of inspiration for workin' on some songs and sounds from: Rick Derringer, Dr. Joe Walsh, and many more ;D ;D With an SG, Les PAul or SC-245 .... big, bold, beautiful ..... rock'n'roll to the max ... really, I don't have quite the descriptive words for it ..... just try it ..... you'll like it ;D ;D ;D cheers always, Joel

Well, my Galaxie does not have the master volume but I run Ch 2 at gigging levels all the time. I play mostly humbucker or P90 guitars using channel 1 at 10-11 o'clock for a crunchy rhythm tone. Channel 2 is around 11-noon and is used for solos. It sounds big and fat with tons of sustain. Roll the guitar volume back a bit for a cleaner solo.
I bought this amp based around channel 2 being my no-pedal guitar solo tone. I set channel 1 for rhythm. I actually use triode mode quite a bit since it adds a bit more crunch, letting me keep the volume somewhat lower on channel 1. I then take full advantage of that extra volume I get when I hit the footswitch for a lead. No need for me to have a master volume on my Galaxie!

My other Z is a Ghia, which I love, but the tweed tones of the Galaxie are what I want to hear lately.
