On this one, I'm actually using a Vox Tonelab and a single Vox Pathfinder amp. If it's the fat guitar sound of "You're the Best Thing" you're after, play off the guitar's neck pickup; on the Me-50, add moderate reverb, and a warm tone on the tone selector (e.g., fat or mild). A little bit of chorus never hurts either... Not on this video, but on most others I've done, my tone "secret" (in addition to the ME-50) is to use two amps--Vox AC30 and Roland Jazz Chorus. Hope this helps.

As always too class the modfather65;) It is with the song "café bleu" Lp that TSC went under my radar. At the time in high school I recieve a K7 copy. The A side was rap music and B side was that band and there was no name. I remember my in love adolescent brain clicked immediately on "the Paris match". Guess what my friend let me kept the K7 and I still have it on my possession:)

Archie... Thanks for the encouragement, man. The first time I heard The Jam, I was about your age, but over here in the USA. The first time I made it to London was when I was 19, after The Jam had split. Nonetheless, for me, the magic was still there. Loved TSC too, (and love early Weller solo stuff too), but the Jam will always be king for me.

great to find this thanks. I was just curious you are clearly a Paul Weller expert and I was just interested to know if there was a reason you started the opening riff on a different note to what PW is clearly playing in the video ? just curious if it is because he used non standard tuning or some such. I played your notes along with the song and sounds fine. Silly question I know. thanks and keep up the good work (bet you didnt think you would be getting questions 7 years after you posted it.

@@modfather1965 THanks for reply. I am just saying that if you look at the notes Paul plays which are very clearly visible on the main original video for the song they don't seem to be the same notes as you are playing yet yours does seem to be perfectly in tune with the record. Maybe I am wrong.
