Hi brown sound, when I bought the Fender Cybertwin, there wasn't actually a line6 amp.
It is and will be always a mystery: to create "weird " sounds, with your amp only, the cyber and the line6 (vetta), the more expensive amp, are more or less similar, and in the line6 POD xt Life floorboard they told me that it produced the effects just as the amp.
I had another floor board for my effects, I just played it for 1 week, back to the store, where they told me that in my case, because of the cybertwin I would only use half or less of the line 6 floor board, they were right. But having the other amps, it is OK.

I don't agree the full 100% about what  locdown wrote. About acoustic amps versus electric amps, I feel pretty good with my amps. First I had, still working, is a Marshall valvestate, no tubes, and 100 watt. Amps with 15-20 Watt can be quit expensive as well. I also have a Fender Cybertwin, I think 2x65 Watt, and this is a dream amp. You have a lot of "genuine" different Fender Amps, like Vibroking, Bassman, almost all the amps you could find. The knobs turn automatically when you choose a kind of amp. You can regulate almost everything, and it provides you almost always the "perfect sound you want so bad. It is a hybrid amp, digital, and tubes. AND this amp has 100 preset, different sounds, giving you the possibility, to regulate this amp by turning the volume, tone, reverb ... creating the sound you want.
The last amp I purchased is a MARSHALL AS 100D, an acoustic amp. BUR!!, I use this amp, first I wanted a 50 watt, and that's why I write about watt, you can always put your volume low, and I compared the 2 amps, for a couple of hours, and they were right, the difference between 50 & 100 W is incredible, AND, I often play electric guitar on it, it gives me a crystal clear sound in 10 seconds, it takes me 15 minutes to have a similar sound.
There are a lot of decent amps, for a low price, and really a lot of noise, if you want, and you can use a lot of different effects and sounds, if you have effects.
Crate has some very good and absolutely not expensive (acoustic) amps.
Hope this will help

Hi Boot, how are you, have you already been on vacation. I just left with MY BEST FRIEND & HIS WIFE to the south of France, in May. Still no money to spend, will change in about 7 months. But I can manage to survive here, and my day has gone before I know. It is very strange: very difficult to tell what day we are. The weirdest thing are the recurring dreams, about forgetting patients, or car crashes. Sometimes so real. One night, somewhere in April I woke up, (It's to get people crazy") dreaming about me performing a song, a nice one too, but gone.
My instruments would be a Gretsch White penguin, THE REISSUE of the so called holy grail of guitars. Why is an original PENGUIN so expensive, and is it a good sounding guitar? and with the money, I think it should be an acoustic: Taylor, Collings.

song:
what guitar do you play ay ay yeh
is it for you or your girl a a ah
yes I love, yes I love you both, when away ay ay eh.
Start in a bluesy style, E7  A7  B7.
I think, nobody did probably notice teh "place of the topic", and if it belongs in another section, it should be there. I didn't notice.

That's right, but I posted this topic because it is almost impossible to start discussing who's the best.
Take "soccer", is BECKHAM, better than PELE?, we forget almost always, that artists back in the sixties are difficult to compare with artists in the nineties. And so we can go on to discuss about VAI, and SATRIANI. What I respect really hard, are artists who compose, and perform as what I called, naked music. Neil Young alone with his huitar, same with Springsteen, and Dylan.
What is virtuosity? A few centuries ago you had that almost linked with the devil, violist PAGANINI. Even today there are virtuoso people playing the violin, unable to play pieces of songs written by Paganini: though there is an explication, a medical one: PAGANINI suffered from a disease: MARFAN'S SYNDROME, one of the symptoms is: extremely long fingers, tall, skinny, problems in the blood, and almost always doomed to die young.

c'est bien possible de trouver "les douzes chaises" ici en Belgique, c'est magnifique de communicer comme ça, parce que je ne crois pas que beaucoup d'autres .... But I will continue in the "ENGLISH   LANGUAGE", why, Since I am here and I mean very often, writing topics and helping others, my skill to write and communicate WRITING are improved about 100%. It is easy, everytime I spell a word incorrect, there is a red line.
But coming back on your answer, I start remembering me that AND my ex, AND my sister worked both, in the record business. My sister: BMG ARIOLA: job was, and very well paid back in 82, to promote albums, and my ex WEA, having a lot of BIG names. Stupid, because now I remember me that she came home, with at least 10-20 different albums, in a white sleeve, used for marketing purposes, I had albums, like Möttley Crue, in 1982, and her boss had to decide if this album was OK for the European market. At least 50% didn't succeed. I was also told that, when you buy an album, that there is a DIFFERENT approach and taste, and most people, when they start listening to an album: if they don't like the first song, there is a possibility that people don't buy the album. But NOW: THIS IS COLLECTORS PARADISE. If you have early stones records, same title, not the same order, and an extra song (more in Japan), or a song not good for the US market, so not on that album: prices for original albums can go pretty high.

I really want to try this out on a sunny day. In fact, all those people who claim to hear satanic or "ugly words" when they listen to the music backwards, aren't they a little bit disturbed?
If I purchase a Led Zeppelin album, I really prefer to turn the album like it should be, FORWARDS, if still vinyl, I start my pick-up, and I start listening from song 1 to the last song. I really don't understand, that people start to play that record backwards, led zeppelin backwards should be, speaking as a extreme catholic (in)sect: NILEPPEZ DEL, or ROLLING STONES, = SENOTS GNILLOR, this I should call more or less (NOT YOU) paranormal or LAMRONARAP, because they are convinced that there are hidden messages, inspired by the LIVED (this sounds weirder). If there are devil messages, they must be found in the lyrics? or NOT.
REALLY HOPING TO GET MORE INFO
Good weekend to the world & chordians.

The masters in what I call, occult or "satan" music, we did not mention as by miracle is BLACK SABBATH of course: Ozzie likes chicken head performances.
ABOUT LED ZEPPELIN dear jpage_roxmysox, difficult nick btw, DO YOU KNOW, AND IF YOU HAVE DOWNLOAD SITES  you will get the shock of your life about "STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN."
TRY TO LOOK, even on www.amazon.com, where you can listen to samples about 30", TO FIND A GROUP "SPIRIT", & the song "TAURUS", the intros of both songs is almost exactly the same. It is told that Page was somewhere in a club in LA, he was already a gifted guitar player, that he saw this group ( a little bit psychedelic) performing. And a few years later, he composed the song "Stairway", with as I wrote an identical intro. When I start "writing?" a song, many times, I find some matching chords, and you add chords, or you remove or change some chords, you will also look for a little "special" intro, or in the middle of the song, when you start playing the song, it is possible that I notice, SH**, I worked so hard and it reminds me of another song. A catchy tune can sit in your head for years, you do not remember at all that you've heard a similar thing, and things like this occur.
