Not to derail anything about Amplitube, but saw Ted live with the Amboy Dukes right after Steve Farmer quit, (late 60's?). Was a bummer and signaled a terminal downslide for the band... Andy, their keyboard player took up the vocals, but the magic was lost without Steve. Even Ted could not salvage them.
Ted however was in incredible form. Stacks of twins on top of dual 15 showman cabinets.
Was playing a thick Gibson Byrdland with a straight cord into the twin. No stomp, no effect.
Incredible thing is that he had achieved at will, infinite sustain of any note. I used to rely on a hollow body Rick to sustain feedback if the note would resonate, but could never pick a note at random and have it sing like a violin. This guy was my hero. His subsequent albums never hinted at what he was capable of live.
