Which of the onboard effects do you think you will use the most?
They all sound quality, in fact, this is the second time today onboard Tremolo has impressed me. 8)
Not sure about the onboard effects... I've just joined functions band so it'll probably wont get much use there, and I'll only know when I get in that situation, at those volumes to make a verdict... same goes for the amp / pedals etc. It's been a while !! will be interesting !! I'll think maybe the volume boost will be most handy for me and when soloin' etc :D

Hi Skiptracer, the guitar sits in nicely with the rest of my main guitars... jag / jazz / tele etc.. I don't think it'll command more of my attention than my jag but It's a great privilege to have it sitting there for when I need new tones. I reckon a 'studio guitar' is what it'll become... I've given it back to Ben at the moment to make some minor adjustments, so lookin' forward to having it back in my hands. :D
