Vox amPlug Satriani
The amPlug series of palm-sized headphone guitar amps make it easy to enjoy great guitar/bass sounds at home, in your room, or anywhere. This lineup is now joined by the amPlug Joe Satriani signature model, which borrows freely from the Vox/Joe Satriani line of signature pedal effects.
With its bright red body, the amPlug Joe Satriani delivers the awesome sound of Joe Satriani’s custom rig – distortion pedal through a high-gain vacuum tube amplifier, followed by a delay – and reproduces the settings created by Joe himself. Inspired by the distortion circuitry of the Vox/Joe Satriani Satchurator pedal, the amPlug Joe Satriani preserves much of the “pick attack” to create an articulate, playable distortion.
Flick the switch to activate the analog-style delay effect. Inherited from the “Lo-Fi mode” of the Vox/Joe Satriani Time Machine delay pedal, the delay features Joe’s distinctive EQ tone, combining both high-pass and low-pass filters.
Use the AUX input jack to plug your CD/MP3 player right into the amPlug Joe Satriani and jam along! Play along with Joe Satriani’s classic tunes, or with any of your favorite music. Enjoy the amPlug’s extreme play-anywhere portability, with up to eleven hours of battery life.
Simply plug the amPlug Joe Satriani directly into your electric guitar, connect your headphones, and you’re ready to enjoy playing using Joe Satriani’s powerful and expansive sound. Of course, you can also connect the optional amPlug Cabinet (sold separately) and create your own miniature amp stack!

In my search for a good picture of Eric Clapton’s “The Fool” guitar, for the previous article, I found this truly excellent article, originally wriiten by Jon Dunn on this website.
So, I though I’d share it with the readers of our Blog, as this is really really good!!!
Read on…
“If Eric Clapton had decided to lie down his guitar and never play another note, his legendary stature in the history of popular music would still be secure. At the ripe old age of 23, he had lit the pop music world on fire with the Bluesbreakers and had finished playing with the first supergroup, Cream. He topped critic’s polls, had platinum albums and a huge house in the English countryside and everyone wanting to work with him. But at this point, he was trying to elude the spotlight and continue his musical journey out from under the microscope. The grueling pace of the Cream touring and recording had left him burnt out, and by the end of 1968, Eric Clapton was ready for a change.
His tenure in the short-lived Blind Faith would lead into a sideman’s spot in the Delaney & Bonnie group, then his first solo album and then into his masterpiece, Derek and Dominos’ Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, which also featured Duane Allman. Though the album was a creative highpoint for Clapton, it initially fell on stony critical ground and did not sell like his previous efforts, which led to him to withdraw from the music scene altogether by the end of 1971.
The following article is an examination of the years between 1966 and 1969, which feature Clapton in the Bluesbreakers and the Cream. It seeks to discuss the more technical aspects of his guitars, amplifiers and style, and to shed more light on the components of his legendary sound. This story begins just after Clapton had left his first popular musical group, the Yardbirds and began the journey to destiny.
