I wanted my guitar to be simpler and just turn on and ROCK so I took the neck pickup out and wired the bridge straight to the output jack. It still sounded like shit so I took the bridge pickup out, too. What should I remove next, my tone still isn't pure enough, I don't want to be like one of those fags with a million switches and 100 pedals

What can I remove from my amp to make it sound better as well? It's an orange rockerverb combo. Can I unhook one of the speakers and take a few tubes out?
