they look like science fiction!

Yeah, I'm sure that's the point...for anyone that doesn't recognize Giger, these images might help:

Oh yeah...they're classic. Who can forget Work 219: Landscape XX?

You post a link to a graphic Shawn, I'm not gonna do it. :party:

The guitars look a cooler than most guitars with graphics on 'em. :tup

2 6v6s, a 5y3, a 6sl7 and a 6sn7 (those last two are old octals) -

even weirder is my Knight amp (a rebuilt PA from the 1940s, I think):

2 6v6s, a 6z7 (good luck finding more of these); a 6J7 and a 5Z3 -

I won't be.

You might.

Went into Elderly Instruments today... feeling some guitar lust right about now. :ph34r:

Tell us about it.

I actually went to Elderly around 2004 to scope out a Hofner Verythin (Classic, iirc). Based on what I had read, it seemed like the guitar for me. The one they had didn't feel right, however. I ended up buying a Jazzica Custom instead, which has been a good archtop. Well, Saturday afternoon I stopped in with no agenda, grabbed the pictured guitar off the wall, and it said, "Take me home!". :winky: First I have to try it through an amp - Saturday afternoon is not a good day to venture in the amp room, what with all the wannabe masters of metal in there wanking away.

So, hmmm. I've got an Ibanez, a Stromberg, and a flight case that I can sell....

Anyone have experience with loopers?

I have been looking at the BOSS RC-2, but keep hearing that I should stay away from a single-pedal looper - too complicated.

So, that leads me to the BOSS RC-20XL and the DigiTech JamMan - both bigger and more expensive than I was looking for.

I'm conFUSED.

I used a Boss RC-20 for a lot of years. Terrible sound quality but very useful as a practice tool.

I have one, but I didn't use it much. Yes, terrible sound quality.

I went through that twice last year...I came home and started calculating how much equipment to sell

to buy a new guitar - and then didn't do it!

BTW I did get that guitar. It's fuckin' sweet. :winky:
