You won't find many amps that are better built from a commercial custom workshop. The HIWATT Custom 50 2x12 Combo is one of the cleanest, loudest, bell-like and most pedal friendly amps I've ever heard. Hence it has become my choice of amp for 2011 and beyond. I love it and now see why many of my heroes swear by them, too.

Here I've teamed the amp up with my favourite Les Paul (Larry Corsa modded Les Paul Standard, Larry mods guitars to Peter Green 59 'Burst specs), a Dice Works Muff Diver Finale (part of a custom Dice Works pedal I commissioned called 'The Overture') and an Eventide TimeFactor.

I recorded it with an SM57 to ProTools 9 via an M-Audio ProFire 610. No extra EQ was added but a Waves L3-16 was used as a limiter on the master output.

This is from a series of videos on the HIWATT Custom 50 Combo that I'll be uploading shortly.

Many thanks to Carole Johnston at CMC Music P/L Australia for her assistance.
