I'm super excited. One step nearer on completing my rig. Now the expensive part is the delay processor.

I don't know why but I am gasing for a gretsch hollow body.

If I find a used one for a good deal. Unfortunately used lefties are rare.

I just drove down to Seattle from vancover. Going to check out some stores to see if I can find myself some old rack gear. My wife is with me so I can't buy anything stupid. I will keep u guys posted if I see anything interesting. An ada mp2 would be nice.

:lol:

It really sucks to come home after work and see that the new guitar amp you've been gassing for months has suddenly shown up and sitting right there in the living room.....disguised as shoes, a handbag, and a coat.    :amaze:

I went to Trading musician. They had a bk butler tubedrive 913 rack overdrive for 200 bucks. They said if I bought it , they will throw in a black version bk butler tubedrive rack 903 for free. This one has both line and instrument ins and outs. The guy said the 2nd one is a bit scratchy and may need some minor repairs. 200 bucks for both. I'm not complaining. This is exactly what I was looking for to boost my jcm800.

so here's what i picked up for 200 bucks

the black one needs work. i prob bring it to a tech.

i only spent a few minutes with it boosting my jcm800. feels really different compared to a tubescreamer. insane amount of gain and very different picking feel compared to a normal boost pedal.

Good stuff!  I've been in the market for a BK Butler Blue Tube so I can check "Replicating Kip Winger's 1990 touring rack" off of my bucket list.

very open sound and aggressive it retains a lot of the amps top end sparkle. not as " tight" compared to a od pedal. I am going to email Mr butler himself if he can do a bias mod on the rack version. I might try to swap out some lower gain tubes to see how it sounds.

also, my eventide eclipse just arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
