I just love a lot of these tones. Sunset Strip and beyond. Not just JCM-800 styles but also those surrounding it to some degree. Boosted Plexis, JCM-900’s, Brown Sound, etc.

Some of my favorites are the Carl Martin Panama (which is gorgeous in person) and the LPD Eighty7 or Eighty7 Deluxe (basically a two channel version of the OG 87). Funnily enough the Nux Fireman (Friedman style) does a respectable job at this if you crank the Tight knob and put the Bass and Treble knobs at 10:30-11 o’clock. It’s similar in a limited manner to the 87D in that you can set up an 80’s crunch and lead on one pedal. It’s also cheap and quite well built.

But enough about what I like! What pedals make you smile with how well they deliver these tones?
