| I would like to buy a Roland RG30 midi set-up. If you don't have one, check around and see if you have any friends who wants to sell one. Thanks! |

Keith, You probably meant to say: GR 30.
Which is a Roland guitar synthesizer.
I work with a guy who uses one... They are great if you can develop the "touch".
Pretty costy though. |

| John, I can't wait to see your picture in the Peavey Monitor Magazine. I plan on hanging it on the wall. Yes, I know they are expensive. Got one located in Springfield, but it looks like it has been used in a lot of smoky bars. They want $300.00, which isn't a bad price if it was in good condition. |

Keith, They did not put my picture with the article. Hartley made the front page with a picture. I made page 31 with a picture of my amp.
I feel like Rodney Dangerfield: "most dads carry their sons picture in their wallet to show people. My dad shows them the picture that came with the wallet."
When I come to see you, I'll try to get Red to come with me. He can give you some pointers on the GR-30.
keep on keepin on.........JD |

| Yes Fred, I have been experimenting with some infrared pickups I have built. Experiments have been done with an analog and a digital output. The frequencies go to a Basic Stamp SX micro-controller, then to the midi. You can even make your guitar sound like a sheep. I can't wait to sound like a sheep backing up a singer! |

| I'd never want my steel to sound like a sheep. For most of the gigs I've had lately, you'd never be able to tell which sounds were coming from the steel and which were coming from the singer! |

Well there you have it folks in Mr. Hilton's own words. I kinda' thought he was moving in this direction and I'm sure glad. Keith, now if you can keep the expenses down, I betcha' you have a certain winner. Just like the volume pedal I play and have for years, it's been a blessing to me.
Sheep?? Hell, you don't need an infrared pickup for that, just catch me on any Saturday night with Texas Pride. I've even been told a braying Donkey sounds better.
