Tone

 

Hi Grace.  How are you?  I'm sitting here doing my laundry while cooking up broth for my ramen.  Of course I think of you all the time, because I love you.  Want some ramen?

I don't have any nice amps.  What I do have is a practice amp called a "Belcat".  I also have 7 cats, but I can't plug my SG into any of them.  When I plug straight into the Belcat, it has to be clean.  The guy who owned my SG before me rewired it so that it becomes extra noisy when overdriven.  So all the dirt and overdrive sounds I get are post-production.  When I turn the Belcat up loud enough, it breaks up and shakes to perhaps a nice tone.  Rats!  Who am I kidding!  It's not a blessing: it sucks!  At least it doesn't run on a rechargeable battery.
