[QUOTE="kc2eeb, post: 143482, member: 811"] Of course, it's a long time ago, but what struck me that night was how he sounded like "the record" as far as tone, sustain, etc. I used to pay careful attention to where the guitar cables went, i.e. right to the amp input, or "around the back someplace" and then the input. I could remember him sweeping across the knobs to be sure they were wide open. The Who were very similar as to "sounding like the Who" whenever you saw them. I remember Townsend, at the Fillmore, playing out of 3 Sunn tops, 5 or 6 cabinets with 15" JBLs and sounded just like you'd expect him to sound. Then, in Central Park, saw them again with a bunch of Sound City Amps. There's a lot to be said for the phrase "the sound is in your fingers" and I'd have to agree with it. [/QUOTE]
