That’s great info. There happens to be one for sale not to far from me for a good price. I have to sell an amp of mine first. Unfortunately the current market isn’t helping. I don’t currently ow ...

Anyone have any knowledge about the Resonators built by Ray Fairchild? There isn't much info out there.

ahh, those are awesome. I ordered and SKB rack before seeing this. Once it is in, I might have to follow up on this. The material it is made out of is my concern. Thanks for the heads up on these.

Thanks for the replies and ideas. I've heard that SKB makes some of the lighter ones. I'm definitely trying to avoid turning the rack into a back breaker for no reason.

I have the same question as ...

I'm currently running an axeFX and a Sarno V8. I'd like to have a rack case beside me facing up. Ideally, I could plug my Hilton into it easily...I've seen people using the Fred Justice ones and they ...

Thanks Ian for the vote of confidence/confirmation. I’ll do just that.

I'm definitely using the volume, but it is set to go all the way off. I'm thinking that changing the cut off point to still allow volume through will change that arch. I'm going to play around with it ...

Thanks. I think others are confirming what I thought about the signal. However, it sounds like getting a good grip on using my volume correctly is my answer.

All great ideas.

I'm using a Pedal Power X4 (original supply is broken, but the X4 should be enough)
The effects are after the volume pedal and I'm having the issue with only the Flint in the cha ...

Thanks Brett, interesting idea. Worth exploring. Thanks for the idea.

I have a Strymon Flint and it's clipping when the volume pedal is toe down. I have a GFI Expo (GFI-III) and a powered Hilton volume pedal. Has anyone else run into this issue?

Does anyone run effe ...

Travis, thank you. I didn't even think about that. I thought I could possibly slide them, but never thought about angling. Great idea. I think that just might do it.

As an update, I'm finding that the shoe I wear makes a big difference. Seems like a heeled shoe in particular helps tremendously.

Jack, unfortunately, Billy told me I needed a double (with pad) guitar to put the knee levers closer to me. I can find a position that works, but it's a small area. If I'm not in the perfect position, ...

Jack, I appreciate that feedback. I do think the extended is probably more comfortable for me.

Bobby, I'll have to take a look underneath. Thanks for the idea. All of these replies have been helpf ...

very interesting. Looks like just what I need. Definitely worth a try.

Recently I've started to get more serious about playing steel. I have a GFI EXPO S-10. I've started to focus on good habits with my feet. I'd like to be able to easily pivot on my heel between pedals. ...
