I know this is a real longshot, but i don't suppose anyone has got a Fender blues junior/Epiphone dot setup they could record and post do they?
Or any similar combo...?

Is there a current website out there that hosts recordings of amps like seymour duncan does with its pickups?

Cheers all

I've a Blues Junior and a Cort 335 copy, however no way to record it [this is a lie actually, see below :p]!

But it sounds absolutely fantabulous. Lovely, mellow warm blues sound on the neck pickup. Middle selector is also lovely. I don't use the bridge though. I have a v-amp which can't even begin to get any kind of similar tone.

Also use it with a USA Fender Strat, sounds good, but not as good as the 335 copy :).

Actually, I do have a way to record it, I've got a £15 headset which I've rarely used.. Quality is poor, but it might give you an idea:

here.

(you might need to turn your volume up a bit)

Starts with neck/bridge pickup, no fat button, a little reverb on the amp, no pre-amp overdrive. The volume is at a bedroom practice sort of level. Switch to the neck pickup at about 50secs. Then bridge pickup. Then switching between the three positions. I stick the fat switch on at some point (maybe 1min 40 - probably with middle pickup there). Briefly turn up the pre-amp overdrive. Then turn up middle, down the treble, no fat, and turn down the tone control down somewhat on the neck pickup for a more jazzy sound. It can go more bland than that though if I turned the tone down totally. Then, er some other stuff that I can't remember.
 
Dude, thats exaclty what i was looking for, and now i am pretty certain thats the amp i am gonna buy.
Thank you very much! :D
