MoJo that is what Skype is for

Frank was and is always amazing  and very entertaining.

interesting box, solid state for solid state to reproduce tube?  yea gotta hear that.  I mean I like the tech they have come up with, and honestly my RP doea great job, if this is affordable i need to lookinto it. I see Fender and Marshal buying it for the lower cost amps.  However I do believe if anyone thinks this is going to replace a head filled with tubes ,,,, I'm not thinking so,,, maybe in the studio, but not on a stage,,, I know I like seeing racks of 4X12's and the heads up there.  even in a combo unit, I wanna know i have that warm orange light in back LOLOL.  But it may just be the next cool thing for mid and low priced amps.

Glad I can surprise ya!  I love Harry, my 4 favorite albums are Taxi, Heads and tails, and On the road to kingdom come, and Sequel .  My neighbor was singing Cats and Taxi with the 12 string Ovation that i now own.  She is the one who gifted it to me.   Zurf, seeing as how you finger pick really good, this should be right up your ally. (let me challenge you with the song Corey's coming)

3 upbeat, are you in a bar that would enjoy a humor song? like Grape fruit Juicy fruit or Ray Stevens? toss one of them in, another upbeat, a mid tempo, then maybe a slower one or 2, ramp back up make them want to dance and drink,  end with something makes them sweat so they buy from the bar.  That's what I would do.  It really depends on where you are playing.  Hanging out with bands its kinda a formula I have seen used.
  Russell and a few of the guys who have more public experience than I can probably be of more help.

56 views not one comment,,, Why does this not surprise me?  Are we staying in the safe box?

I was a bellman and met a few stars , some have heard this before, but I chatted with and gave a ride to a laundromat  to Jeff Keith from Tesla. he gave me 2 tickets and stage passes, they were opening for Poison.  that same year was also all the girls in VIxen.  didnt talk to him but Warren hanes got up on stage eith my friends bad and jammed. and met a guy from an almost famus band called Rock City Angels the same night. (they were dropped by David Geffin in lu of GnR)

i also got to meet and hang a bit with Dom  Deluise  when he stayed at the hotel.

I love my stomps also, but have you thought of going to a multi effects processor?  Ever since I have had my Digitech RP boxes I have rarely had to add any stomps.  If you play live I  suggest either a RP 500 or RP1000. (or a line 6 or a vox, but I know the RP series).  In the states just saw a used RP1000 at Guitar center for like $175 or so. Stupid affordable.  The difference is either a bank of 5 or 10 for channels.

The other advantage, rugged built for giging, one power source needed in your extension( go to a 6 slot gang), you can program ANYTHING lolol, There are toys in there I still have not figured out.   also you can set the presets to your set list.  it really has a lot to offer, and no i am not attached to the company LOLOL

just a suggestion.

OH and BTW i left my A/B Y box plugged in and killed the battery and there is no by pass so i had nothing.  (Note to self, get A/B Y box that is powered.)

Well Phill, as your post has no quote button,  Now you sound like a FB forum.  this person evidently has used chordie, as a tool not a social media.  I was on here 3 yrs b4 I even tried the forum. I'll be honest, I liked the CP feature my self and dont like current things either, however I have accepted them  and use songster, and Amy's work-around, not gonna "take my toys and go home" but I think the guy has a valid question.

As we know from dealing with MS.  Not all changes are good.an not all upgrades are good as some money hound finds a way to remove what may be considered a minor item that actually lost of ppl use/used and then charge you for it, and then makes it so the best features you now have to annually rent instead of own.  Sorry that's a Tangent, but one I'm pretty sore about.

I don't know why my last post did not go , maybe this will.   As to replies to post,, this has been a  issue for a long time, lots of views and average 3 to 5 replies if your lucky,
Many forums have messenger now,though forums are fast becoming a T-Rex, most are on FB, Twitter snap chat.... etc.   This is the age of instant access and reply.   Most of our member's are Anti FB. some are not.

We have about 20 +/- "Core" and active members.  How often do we get a new member who will post more than once or twice?  This is a issue I have talked to Doug about a few times.  There is a chordie FB but i only check it once in a blue moon because none of my friends are there.  It summer, no one is sitting in front of a puter LOL

That should have been kick the person who suggested Phil Spector in the patoot.
