MAGNOLIA ROAD: Tom Ranken
Tom's Guitar Gear
Like a lot of guitarists, I tend to find new things and try them out. At the moment, ......
Guitars: I have been loving my gold top Gibson Les Paul Classic. I purchased a DiPinto Belvedere Junior (with a single P-100 pickup) which sounds great for slide playing. I have been working an old Supro Comet lap steel guitar into the act, as well, which is a kick to play.
Amplifier: I have a Soldano SLO-100 with a 4x12 cabinet hand built in Seattle. Soldano makes the best guitar amplifiers in the world. You just can't beat 'em.
Effects: I use a Sonic Research Model ST-200 Stomp Box tuner. I try to use as little as possible in the chain as the best sound is obtained with a guitar plugged right into the Soldano amp.
