6. I Had A Big Muff Pi

I bought it at the music store where i taught piano (owner was a great guy, sold me stuff at cost and let me take Moog stuff out of the store to use for gigs and then just bring it back.)

I ran an old Vox Jaguar organ through it so i could beef it up and get that Jon Lord sound. (Of course, it didn't sound exactly like a Hammond, but better than the cheesy 60's organ sound that didn't work so well doing Deep Purple.)

Never played my guitar though it though. Of course i didn't even learn to play guitar for about another 3 years.

The only distortion units i regular used was the Rockman and the Satchurator made by Vox. Gives that ultrasmooth full distortion sound that Satch uses. Used the latter for jam nights where i could get a tone i liked without having to bring my Marshall or Boogie.
