LOL [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]max and amir may be deluded to a lot of things but their guitar sound isnt one .... they dont appreciate brian's rig AT ALL. their to a more processed sound, in fact i've eaten salamis that were less processed .... as you've seen of videos of them playing Tills jag faller http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oo8U6qw31j8 this was AFTER I left the band thank GOD........[/QUOTE] [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]as you can see they use cheap guitar and worthless amps - not for lack of money because they had plenty once they screwed me over ... but because they think it sounds better to play to through a shitty pedal - not even to pay attention to the amp settings - trust me they dont envy Brian because they dont know what good guitar sounds are.[/QUOTE]

I started out with a standard Orange Amp, but as my skills have progressed I've been rewarded with money and equipment endorsements, including...Line 6 guitar amplifiers[/QUOTE]
Ok, I get it now. I thought you were trying to be serious.

Line 6 amps are at their best when they're turned off. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]Bit of an about-face here though; I do own a Variax and I have to say it's fun to record with. In my hands it feels cheaper than a $170 strat copy that I once smashed for a Who gig, but the modelling itself is pretty neat. Not always convincing - you can definitely pick out when the same algorithms are being applied to do different tricks, but it's a useful stopgap. I've even got a decent Bohemian Rhapsody setting on there.[/QUOTE] [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]But it'll be a cold day in hell before I play through another Line 6 amp. They were the bane of my borrowed-equipment existence back at music college.[/QUOTE]

Hey, I've got the Variax, too! The 300. Yes, it's kindling, but when the gig calls for occasional Mandolins and Sitars, it has saved my back a lot of unecessary stress. I kind of wish I would have waited, because now Gibson and Fender are getting into the mix. If you do have a set list that has a couple songs requiring the ethnic stringed instruments, I would recommend it to all.
I am interested in test-driving those new Pod Floorboards they've got. You can control your vocals and effects in addition to the guitar stuff now. If they're good enough, I've thought about getting each vocalist one and replacing the sound man with a fern... on smaller shows.
