Members fuzzface71 Posted January 10, 2005 Members Share Posted January 10, 2005 I had my Marc Bolan phase/obsession like maybe 8 years ago. Any fans? I don't see a lot of T-Rex fans out there? Are you there?! GET IT ON! BANG A GONG! AHW!! Marc Feld (September 30, 1947 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sir H C Posted January 10, 2005 Members Share Posted January 10, 2005 For the T-Rex sound you need one of these. This is the Jennings version of the Vamp/Vampower amp. Killer cool, tons of gain, huge sweep of the tone controls, and from Mr. "Vox" Jennings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BillyGrahamCracker Posted January 10, 2005 Members Share Posted January 10, 2005 Originally posted by fuzzface71 20th Century Boy must be one of the heaviest guitar riff and tone ever recorded. I know. That's up their in my cool heavy guitar list with Bowie's "Queen Bitch," Zep's "Houses of the Holy" and "Wanton Song," the first White Zombie album, and Frankie Valli's "Let's Hang On to What We've Got."

Have you ever seen the live video of that? It has to have the worst solo ever put to tape. That LP was damn cool, though. Any classic rock fan who loves guitar riffs must go through the T-rex thing. It's cool stuff. I think he was really beloved by other rockers of his time. I bet he partied hard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
