Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

special show. Swaggering with the correct proportions, this diamond version charms with its intense effects and pyrotechnic builds.

Gorgeous, while boisterous and charged up like much of the era. Monstrous improv and seamless architecture
