    Peter Frampton farewell tour...

    Frampton has always struck me as really nice guy. But also a hard core dedicated guitarist. Although he has a heads up, and is recording like mad, I can't help but think as he see's ability leave him. Probably going to send him into a depression. I don't know whats worse, having a condition...

    Agreed ! Like I said "with the MFC you might hit a few road blocks."

    Need to control my JP2C with my MFC!

    Stick with preset numbers to control; the Mesa. In the Manual (JP2C) you will find a nice little graph on page 31 that gives you all different combinations. How it reads 1-15 gives you all the combinations then it just repeats 16-30: 31-45 and so on. If you have been storing changes on the Mesa...

    British vs. Chinese Celestion Speakers

    Had a 2x12 Mesa Recto cab and replaced the Celestion Vintage 30's with the GWS Veteran 30's, was really happy with those speakers. I don't have that cab anymore, and now that I'm talking about it. Starting to miss it.

    I might go back to 9s on my guitars

    Yeah in the end that is what it has turned into for me, all my Gibson's have 10's and all my Fenders have 9's. Like I said above the Ibanez's with the trem's, also 25.5 scale length, 9's 10's doesn't matter that much to me but had settled on 9's. Basically thinking to myself "if the different...

    I might go back to 9s on my guitars

    If that's crazy, then I'm crazy too. Have been pretty much playing 10's since 1980, there has been the few times were I went to 9's or 11;s but always came home to 10's. BTW more of a Gibson guy, but do have some Ibanez's with the same scale length as Fender. But then I got my first Fender...

    Why Shop AX8 ??

    I have no problem with a fully baked unit. Since I got my ax8 a few years ago there's been upgrades add-ons minor bug fixes. It has more going now. Then when I paid for it a few years ago. All add-ons were free from Fractal, unlike pretty much every other company out there

    No you cant run 2 amps within the same scene with the AX8 (you can with the Axe Fx II & III) Think of a scene as a preset within a preset, although it goes a little deeper what you are basically doing is turning blocks on and off. Instead of selecting another preset or doing some tap dancing...

    That is a Oasis case humidifier, have one for every case. With the electrics I only really use them maybe a few months during the winter, when it gets real dry. The acoustics's allot more. Nice V BTW, keep on top of that gold hardware. Gold looks great but can be a bitch to maintain. John

    Being a V owner myself I really like that allot! Although I appreciate the work that's put into a guitar with a "theme" to it (in this case a military type vibe) Usually not that into them, this one's different! And your choice of knobs is perfect, just rounds out the look. John
