Aha but that tsl clean channel loved to break up. Fender twin fitted the bill better. And the dimebucker is one hell of a trebley pickup. Really didn't suit the choppiness of ska/reggae but mixed with the Warmer neck pu it pulled it off. Just :p
Yeah for sure that's no reggae setup pmsl, use a mesa boogie duel caliber and a Musicman USA silhouette these days, do pretty much anything with that setup
I'm still on the dean mind you I have been looking up musicmans after my friend had the john pertrucci model with the piezo pickup (dat tone uhhhhh) and currently running a Mesa mark 4 with an engl 4x12 although looking to swap the cab. Also looking at an Axefx setup as the music I enjoy making at the moment an Axefx setup would be perfect (periphery/monuments djent/tech metal setup) although I will never want to leave that raw tube tone. Will one day pickup a orange tiny terror as they're just incredible and need something small but punchy.

Mine actually refers to my car, not myself, and I have no imagination lol. Toms306 - The 306 belonging to Tom...
Didn't really put much thought into it at the time, never thought I'd stay on a forum long, thought the novelty would wear off quickly, and here I am 5 years later still on the same(ish) one!! Coulda used one of the nicknames I got at school but most were around my surname which I don't want on a public forum lol. Only other one was crazylegs...but that makes me sound like a promiscuous woman, it was actually because of my football skills (hard to believe now haha!! ).
Its also stuck with me on several other forums, but I know use others so I'm harder to track.

I use THE_Liam on most forums. Comes from playing rugby, we had 3 Liams in the squad when I first started playing for my club, when I moved into the under 15s we got a new coach, and he asked me if I was one of the Liams. I said no, I am THE Liam, the others are spares
I use LiamFBRangers on rugby forums (Liam full back Stanningley Rangers), and on a couple of others I've used Rand al'Thor, which is the name of the main character of my favourite series of books.

Mine is completely lacking in thought or originality...I use M,oFo - I like the way oFo looks like some guy riding a bike - on the triathletes world forum and was minidave when I had a Mini.

Mines a bit dull, it's my reg that my gran and sister got me for my 21st and it went on my pug at the time and I always associate it to a 306 so makes it easy to remember!

mine is a my surname but shortened down, I get called procta, instead of proctor. I started life called Rio, as I had a metro rio at the time, and I wasn't known to the world as Procta back then, as I had a different surname, and hadn't changed my surname until I was 18. When I changed to the 306, I had a Dturbo, and loved the spool and the kick off it, and decided to call my self turboboy. Then one day, I decided to change to my msn Name which I called my self Procta as the world started to know me by then, So Everything was changed to Procta.

One of my college mates made a passing comment that i looked a bit like a poodle with scraggy long hair. Not sure how or why, but it stuck and is still with me 10 years down the line.

Mines actually my surname with the g taken off, been known as Choppin since the start of high school as we had 3 other Lukes in my class, also had a drunken mishap with a axe and nearly fooked my left leg up so then became a bit of a piss take, a choppin who can't chop wood!! Haha

I had short hair. I looked like a serial killer. Thus I stick to longer hair. I look less like a murderer [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]
And Matt you know you can loan. Whenever.
