Took a little time off our vacation schedule today to meet up with fellow TTR member Chas Fred.

What a genuinely nice fellow. Had a great time chatting and subjecting Sam Ash to some sonic vandalism.

Chas busted out some great, jazzy phrases on my Les Paul:

The Roland had really great clean tones and I can see why its so popular! Overdrive is just not very dynamic. It wouldn't work for what I play.
 
Robert also tried the Boss Katana 50. For $219 and the free software this amp IS killer. Spent this morning checking out vids on YouTube.
Robert, I think I might have to get one.
I feel a AAS (Amp Acquisition Syndrome ) starting to develop.
 
Very cool pics.
Hopefully we'll get to meet Chas next, down here in the swamp.

Just hope his visit isn't the last week in August...:confused:

The Katana definitely has a lot of diversity....

I'd swear that first picture was Wav if I didn't know better!

...and I have a Katana 100 Head and thoroughly recommend it!
 
I want to be totally honest about something. Recently, as I have spent more and more time playing - really playing - each time I play a different guitar and amplifier, I realize how absolutely perfect my current setup really is...
 
It is GREAT when you find the "ONE" is it not RObert?

--- guess that is why so many top pro musicians use just 1 or 2 guitars for many many many years....and many songs--- you know where you are on it-- you know what sounds it will give you at any given moment and it becomes a constant companion and tool-- not a question mark of exploration---

Like riding a good Motorcycle
or a trusty horse......

you can go off on trails unknown because you know the guitar will bring you home......
 
Knowing I have a Blackstar ID-CORE 100 watt, that was the first amp I plugged into because I am comfortable with it. There was a guy, his wife and teenage son amp shopping. He politely asked me to move my guitar case so he could grab a Blackstar 40 watt.

I kept my volume down, while a couple of other guys seemed like they were having a Djent volume contest, and I just let myself get lost in some of my solos, running lots of reverb and spatial delay effect.

The dad kinda hung around Chas and me for a few minutes and was asking the sales guy about all the differences in the floor amps. After a bit, i noticef they carried the remaining Blackstar ID-CORE 100 watt up to the counter and checked out.

What a great starter amp that kid is gonna get!!!
