See - I may be dumb, but I had to look up Robin Trower to see who he was. See, I\'d have to be in the mod to listen to Protocol Harum, but I can throw on Blind Faith or the Rainbow Concert any day of the week and not get bored. I guess it\'s all personal taste.

Robin Trower had no creative liberty in Procol Harum. While they were a good band... Robin Trower\'s solo act following the split is a whole different animal.

Please check out Bridge of Sighs.... possibly the best British blues album of all time.

peace!

How about a follow-up: Does Tim run the Strat and the Spider through the same FX and amp? Or are there variations?

Bridge of Sighs - Oh yeah! Bought it new on vinyl when it came out and still have it. Classic!

Last I saw TB Tim was playing a Mesa Boogie Mark IV. I have a Mark II C+ that I should take to the show for him to play through tomorrow night;) Nah...that would be too much amp for Tim....I\'m kidding

The biggest component of Timmy\'s tone, aside from his hands, is his guitar amp. A Mesa Boogie Nomad 1x12 that he pumps thru a 4x12 recto cab. The foot switch to control the amp is dead center in his pedal board and is the majority of his distortion, beefed up with the aforementioned pedals. I am also a mesa user and have had a few discussions with Tim about how wonderful there amps are and how he should think about utilizing the effects loop with such a long chain. He has has taken care of the signal loss instead with a buffered line level pre- in his pedalboard. He did use to rock a Mark IV which is similar in sound to the his current Nomad rig.
