    I don't know how he gets that great fluid tone without a special, really expensive jack cord and those gold-plated fuses (see other thread). I guess he just didn't know any better.

    Maybe it's because I've heard this version dozens of times, but I find it more musical, true to the melody, etc. And Jon Lord is in top form.

    That's not saying the one you posted wasn't good.........Bill

    That is so true.........and with a "pig" '70s strat with stock pups!
    So many of the tones we are chasing were done with a stock guitar,a standard coily cable,and a stock amp. Could you imagine walking up to Blackmore or Peter Green and saying,"Hey man,check out this oxygen-free cable! Your tone is suffering now,but not with this baby! It's only $100!"

    Ritchie was actually instrumental (pun intended) in the creation of the short-lived Marshall Major head (200 watts RMS),so you can imagine 2 of those and 4 cabs.
