I have a SansAmp PSA-1, and a Boss GT6-B. Both have given me good results. Mostly, I got these units for live applications. When I need lots of power, or the ability to switch between a variety of different sounds on the fly, I'll hook one of the modelers up to a power amp, and drive my...

The bidding history says that there were only three separate bidders, who were responsible for the six bids. STILL, that means that there were three different people who saw that item and said to themselves, "Man, I'd really like to have one of those." All I can say is, "What were those people...

What really freaks me out is that there were six bids. :eek: Of course, it finally sold for just $15.50, but that still seems (to me) like, oh, about $15.50 too much! :D

I recently saw Knopfler in concert. That guy also has a guitar tone to DIE for! Absolutely phenomenal.

You mean the best GUITAR solo - ever? Wow. Talk about an impossible challenge. There are just soooo many good ones. Hmm. Well, O.K., I'll give it a shot. I'd have to go with either Steve Lukather's solo on "I Won't Hold You Back" from the Toto IV album, or the absolutely jaw-dropping solo...

Well, once again, I don't think the amplifier or the speaker cabinet is the problem. The guitar, itself, is a jazz box, and will always have a bassy, boomy sound. I really don't think switching to a different cabinet, no matter what speaker compliment it has, will solve your problem. This is...

Yeah. It's really been in the last year or two that the prices of some of these collectible instruments has exploded through the roof. Heck, $10 or 15 grand for an early Paul (in good shape) almost sounds reasonable to me. (Although I am NOT a collector, and have never paid those kinds of...

Yeah! Now THAT's a nice bass! Light is correct. 1957 was when the Precision took on the modern design with the sleeker body shape, and the split coil pups came in at this time, too. You will see some LATE 50's Precisions with rosewood fingerboards. (I once had an original '59 with a...

Very good job of describing the problem, Osus. I think you're analysis of the problem sounds pretty much spot on, too. It sounds like the guitarist is fighting for sonic space with the keyboard rig. It appears that he's going for a very mellow jazz sound. That might very well conflict with...

Well, folks could quibble over the exact dollar figure that would be "correct" for each of those models but, in a nutshell, I'd say that pretty much sums it up. Very well said!

This is known as "the greater fool theory." That's when you justify some "investment" by saying to yourself, "Well, sure, I might be paying 10 times what this thing is actually worth in any rational sense. But, I'm sure that somebody else will come along, who's an even bigger fool than me and...

Well, I don't know what you mean when you ask if people generally "approve of" the Blues Jr. I mean, after all, everybody has different tastes in amplifiers. I would say that some people like 'em and some people don't. However, I do know that the Blues Jr. is a very, very popular amp, indeed...

Thanks man!

WARNING ***Bad Pun Alert*** WARNING Yeah. NO SHIT!

Nice rig! I'm very familiar with the Boss Blues Driver. What does the Keeley mod do?

Cool deal. That's exactly what I'm trying to do - figure out a way to send the guitar direct without it sounding too "piezo-y." (However, after thinking about Mr. Lawler's post, as well as my own experiences with how much of that piezo sound will go away, if you just find the right unit to...

Yep. The SansAmp Bass Driver is exactly what you would need in a situation like that.

Reviews we can use! User reviews - YES!!!! Thank you, guys. I found that very helpful. You've earned your positive rep points fair and square. I'd just like to make one (very slight) correction, here. The technology, itself, that is used to model musical instruments is NOT new technology...

I gotta second what earworm said. While I'm sure the stomp box compressors that are out these days are pretty decent (they used to be unacceptably noisy), there's no reason NOT to use the dbx, if you've already got one. I'm pretty sure that your amp has an effects loop. Both of the SWR combo...

Thanks guys! Great information. Thanks guys. :) :) :) :)
