   Amen! I know a local player who's a genuinely good guy but who, um, 
needs a little practice. He calls me every couple of months or so and 
asks why he can't get his Bassman reissue and JT-30 to sound like my 
Bassman reissue and JT-30. He even went out and bought a tube reverb unit 
I used to use until I got tired of hauling it around (I use a reverb 
stomp box now). I know what the problem is, but I don't have the heart to 
tell him....
