John Bohlinger is fucking ace; he's like a turbo-chill Bill-and-or-Ted dude who can actually shred, endlessly upbeat. Whenever I watch one of his demos, it inspires my playing for reeealszzz

It sounds a bit like a Vox Repeat Percussion clone. I would say Earthquaker Hummingbird, but I didn't see it on his pedalboard.

MusicStore here in Cologne sez they SHOULD be here on Sept 16.
I will slap that cash on the counter SO FAST.
Stay tuned!
PS: I need another guitar (a LP ffs!!!) like I need genital herpes returning.
But €115 ffs. Even if it becomes a wall hanger only. Pastel blue hell YEAH

Just checked Dawsons site (when I ordered from) again:
Available to Order. Estimated delivery is 27/10/2017.
Part of me just wants a refund now, but I know I'd kick myself
plus, 10 Euro off with the code 10SOMMER2017 until 22.09.
i think i'll just do it and be happily surprised when it gets here!
Pat moves to Germany, and now he buys a SECOND new guitar.
What's next Pat? A new car... with a warranty!?
I KNOW, WHAT THE FUCK?!?!

Sacked it off, got bored of waiting for the ever-changing date and the 'novelty' factor has worn off.
Don't need another guitar at all, and realised I really want a little desktop amp instead as that'd actually be filling a void in what I own and help me enjoy the guitars I DO own.

Wee Blackstar amp is meant to be cool.

Haha, nice. How're you finding it?
I've looked at the Katana and, aye, Blackstar guys. I've got some time off from Thursday, so might go and try some tings out in person. Like the look of the Yamaha THRs, but it's totally overblown for what I want it for.

I'm enjoying it. It's 99% there as a "Vox"

Niiiiiice. I was eying those up a while back, and also one of those new Vox MV 'AC' heads because I love me some Vox but
1) need a combo
2) need more knobbies
The Hotone does sound pretty great though, very convincing.
