Yes, if only we could clone Larry Atamanuick. (Alison Krauss Union Station & many others)Dave Stagner wrote:That drumming, too!

Not only the steel tone but the sound and style of Redd on that Telecaster is my desired guitar tone. That's some fine music for listening.

A banjo, like a pet monkey, seems like a good idea at first.

I've just taken delivery of a Fender ToneMaster Twin & found the overall sound to be clear and punchy. After spending an hour experimenting with the tone controls and getting used the amp, I am experiencing a "harshness" when I play B & C, strings 3,4,5 up around the 15th fret area that is a bit distracting. Has anyone else found this and if so what did you do minimise it?

It will take a good bit of playing for the speakers to break in to sweeten the tone, plus a lot of knob tweaks. Depending on your pickup and your attack tones will vary. I'm playing a Derby SD10 3x5 with a E66 pickup, Sarno Black box, Goodrich passive volume pedal into the reverb channel. My settings are with bright switch off. But I often run an outboard reverb and delay. My best tone to date was with a Peavey Profex II into front with its 3B Eq, reverb and delay. I also downloaded Fender updated reverb that made the amps reverb more useful.
