Copied from Blues Saraceno's website:
As far as amps what I am using with the exception of my main amp which is my signature, the one that I am most associated is the Dirty Boy amp. An amp that was built by my father, maybe 10 years ago, on the kitchen table of his house, I guess because he was tired of my going out and buying vintage amps and having to get them modified by people who did not necessarily have the best social skills. So he decided to learn how to do it himself, hence ending the reliance on others. With the exception of that one which has an immensely high wattage (120 watts) and has 4 EL 34's, 2 drivers, a mid booster, 2X 5U4's rectifiers, 7 transformers including a Variac, and 6 pre-amp tubes, so that most of the sound actually comes from the power section which has huge filter banks as well as an adjustable feedback loop. It also has an adjustable bias which saves you from paying anyone to bias your tubes.
Literally, sounds pretty cool. I don't know when and where he has used it, but I wonder if he used it when he filled in on Poison's Crack a Smile LP. The tone he has on that CD, namely the song quot;That's the Way I Like Itquot; is absolutly to die for. Yum-a-dum-dum.
Thoughts?
I bet it's a sweet sounding amp. It would be so cool to build an amp and then one day read about some famous guitarist using it...not to mention the added coolness of that famous guitarist being your son. Very cool story. I, like you, would like to find out what songs he used it on.
