would love to get one again. I bought one the week they came out and sold it to pay bills. This is a gem

I know it looks like a lot of pickups but its just a two humbucker guitar w its coils spread out. Not much diff than a PRS w a 5 position switch and coil & phase toggle.

any more dipinto fans?

recently got another LSJ, swapped in a tru-arc serpentune, and magically my sons got an LSJ and a 60s roger's sparkle snare! It was a good Xmas.

He was kind to me, I think the world of catalinbread products. I use these every week in my performance and recommend them to my own customers

how come you dont have it directly after your guitar? A preamp needs to be closest to the guitar as its preamping the guitars pickups. Like a shouting mouth to ears hearing something whispered. If you do otherwise then the preamp will then also preamplify all artifacts of what is between the...

Hi Mark, Happy holidays.. been followin ya on facebook. been real busy with these builds for the holidays so I've not had time to post much

This only happens with my slide :)

I think that is a cliche' or sterotyped misnomer.. if that were so true why does Tim Armstrong use a nice mesa boogie amp and period correct gretsch guitar? Why does Trever of Face to Face use an even more boutique Tophat amplifier? Why do Greg and Brett of Bad religion use custom Les Pauls, Tom...

this tells me you will soon.. :) Chasing the tone dragon is my hobby, playing the guitar is my art.

I prefer the RE301 space echo's preamp for my old fender amps and ac30/trainwreck.. boosts have their place but a good preamp between the pkups and the amplifier are a dynamics game changer IMO. ...and yes Dumble putting a solid state preamp inside the amp gives a big knod to why his amps have...

They have very little in common meaning XOTIC is a nice marketing concept (no one is arguing they dont sound like a very nice transistor based boost) but if you would like to have an actual recreation of an original maestro echoplex's preamp.. Clinch has/had this and Xotic has taken from this...
