I'm very happy with the stereo tape delay simulator built into the Fender Cybertwin head that I use. It's better than the standalone pedals that I've heard so far, but I haven't tried to keep up with ...

I was able to catch a couple of hours in the late afternoon and by happy coincidence my dad was in town and I was able to bring him. Lots of interesting stuff, but my favorite was Ernie. He played e ...

Just a reply from the perspective of someone who's had their Carter Starter for about a year now, and had some fun with it but not practiced nearly as much as I'd need to if I was trying to be a " ...

I like the topic, but my personal opinion is that it's two separate things. Yes, I think the country is becoming more urban/suburban, and yes, I think that traditional sounding country isn't played m ...

Just sayin' Smile

I was in the 101st. I like riding in helicopters. Having said that I would not let my child ride in an Army helicopter no matter how lovingly restored and expertly piloted. I say this not to be a j ...

Well, we're getting closer now so I thought I'd bring this back from the dead before I nail everything down. I've gotten a couple responses and will be in contact with those who've already responded ...

I'm a beginner steel player, but an experiences guitar sound nut who appreciates the sound of steel. I really like my cybertwin head, but need more bass than I'm currently getting from a pair of old ...

I think there are music people and there are lyrics people. The guys who think Joel sucks and Springsteen rules are lyrics people, IMO. Same tradeoff happened in the early 90s between the hair bands ...

I realize this is getting beaten to death on the radio as I type, and taste is a personal thing, but I like Jamey Johnson and I think that "In Color" is pretty close to a modern classic. I ...

So how's the gig treating you? I talked to Mike and he sounded like you guys were having fun.

There are a few people in this world that should be fired, but I've found that mostly it's because the band isn't set up in a manner conducive to playing softly. People (and drummers) need to be able ...

Yeah, the more I think about it, I realize the original statement was correct...if Marsalis says it's jazz, then it's jazz. My problem is that I don't trust him to say which things AREN'T jazz.

Speaking of the Dixie Dregs, Rod Morganstein(?) is still playing amazing stuff with Winger (which I know probably won't score any points with anyone here Smile

). I saw them live fairly recently and Rod ...

Wynton Marsalis is a great player, but you should only listen to his definitions of what is and isn't jazz if you want the most rigid definition possible. The guy is a jazz Nazi, IMO. I've been in t ...

Thanks, I've gotten a couple of emails from guys around there already. As it gets closer I'll have to figure out who's still available and what they have for a PA.

I've got a family reunion in the Keokuk IA/Nauvoo IL area around next 4th of July that I'll need to rent a PA for and I'm also short a musician. I'm still not sure exactly which night (sometime betwe ...

Oh, OK, I get it Smile

. Glad you're doing the gig. Mike grew up in Pennsylvania and didn't "sound southern" at all when I played with him. When I hear him on the phone now, he sounds like h ...

Oops, sorry I missed your reply back in August. So turns out there's no gig for you after all? If so, that's too bad, I was looking forward to some stories. I miss playing with Mike even though I p ...

Is there a specific time?

Excellent. Get hit with any underwear? Smile

Good luck on the gig. As an ex-80s-hair-band guy, I would love to see it Smile

. It's hard for me to imagine country there but it sounds fun.

I use a bit of both at the same time. I gotta put in a plug here for what's probably the best feature on the Fender Cybertwin, which is the tape delay simulator. Crank up the wow/flutter on it, and ...

I had to look it up to see whether the 822 had the same kind of 5-pin XLR as the 825, but I guess not. Appears that it's a standard XLR connector but instead of a single balanced signal it's a got du ...

I see you're from Virginia, so this won't surprise you, but anybody coming from a dry climate like the Rocky Mountains will probably hate the summers if you have to work outside at all. My first summ ...
