Gotta love the who, Pete's tone is amazing. What kind of amp does he use here? I think it's a Vibro-King. And, their positioning is odd, he has 2 stacks, with 2 stacks right in front of em..... hmmm.


Goosebumps when the guitar kicks in!BTW IVAN (Milenkovic) were playing such harmonica solo's in no time!

Brilliant to see a Who post, well done Jesse!! I saw these live at the Knowsley Hall music fest in liverpool last year before they headlined at glastonbury and they were awesome, they totally roll back the years with their performances (Just try that windmill, its not as easy as it looks!) I would imagine the two rears would be backups or part of a stereo rig, or maybe some kind of strange effect pete discovered! Who knows!
Just a technical point, that 2nd vid isnt baba o'reilly its teenage wasteland! And what happened to the union jack on the 2nd vid??!?? sad.gif

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I didn't know that! The video said baba so... sad.gif Aawww. Oh lol, DUDE IT'S THE SAME SONG:D aww, I don't know. Can an expert on The Who help us out?

Jesse, have you tried new Amplitube Fender? That thing can emulate Fender amps like no other modeling software. The only shame is that it doesn't have any good overdrive stomps within software, so either you gotta use pedal before PC, or put some stomp emulation before the plug in DAW.

PS I will record some harp stuff soon! cool.gif

Thanks for The Who post Jesse smile.gif I LOVE The Who and Won't Get fooled Again is probably my fave by them so thanks for sharing.

And yes, Baba O'Riley is the same song as Teenage Wasteland. Baba O'Riley is the actual name of the song.
