Having a blast in the studio today trying to emulate Eddie's early VH rig. Signal path is:
Vintage MXR Ten Band EQ (the blue one)
Jimi's '68 Marshall Super Lead
Variac, running the Marshall at 90V
Resistive load
Line out into a solid-state power amp
'67 Celestion 20W Greenback
Celestion Vintage 30
I went out and spent a bunch of money on a vintage JBL D120F, but it sounded nothing like the JBL on the VH 1 album. 
The Vintage 30 did, however.
Hope to finish profiling today!
