Just a little sample what the Egnater Rebel can do. Pardon my playing- I haven’t played in awhile, but this amp inspired me to play!! The distortion sounds a little compressed do to the camera’s microphone so this is probably not the best representation of what she sounds like. It’s still decent though.

Original 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard (with NO pedals) straight into a 1989 Trainwreck Express amp. Playing excerpts from Glen Kuykendall’s own “Can You Hear It Ring?” CD and other bluesy improv. Pardon the intro run, later I realized I was totally in the wrong fretboard position which was making it much trickier! Oh well, luckily it’s MUCH cleaner on my CD and Myspace clips. Mostly though, this video is improvised stuff to demo the gear and range of tones by simply working the guitar knobs and playing dynamics. Cheers, GK
