So this is how to get the "brown" sound!
Nice pedalboard :)

You do have to get good at removing plates from pedals, eventually, though. Tough work! :)

And really intrigued at the collaborations Boss has been making lately. Including the JHS one. I should go looking for reviews...
Larrivee 00 Acoustic. FAV Strat for electric. Ibanez SDGR5 for bass. Push for Ableton. When not doing that, 3D CAD for tunnels...

Thanks Matt. There's a lot of rumours out there about JHS, pretty nasty most of it, and I imagine 99% of it is false.
I'm sure it's just people making it up because they have nothing better to do :crazy:

Didn't know that this isn't the company John Hornby Skews that distributed music gear in the UK including a line of pedals. How confusing.

Visited the JHS place in Leeds more than once to get Charvel / Jackson gear. We were treated like rock stars.

They're responsible for 'vintage' guitars too :).

Well he was playing (leading?) the worship gig at that crazy ass church, in 2012-13 as he says in his statement, so you can understand where people would have been upset at the time. Sounds like he is fully distanced from them now though.

Why would you even be associated with such a thing unless you believed in what they stood for? Stinks to me...

Yeah, bit disingenuous to say, I just attended and volunteered, that's all. But, I'm sure we've all done dumb shit in the past. If he's moved on and disassociated himself then respect I guess.

I guess people can change. Invar Kamprad, founder of IKEA, was once a member of the Hitler Youth but folk still flock to buy his funky chairs - he's long-since distanced himself from that sort of ideology. I guess people can be persuaded to buy into all sorts of crap (hence the congregation at every church everywhere ever). Just sayin'.... Probably just offended 90% of the forum :oops:

Let's retract our comments even though I love 'em. And focus on the new BOSS products!

Matt - how much are those fancy Strandberg whatsits in Kiwi terms? Enough to bankrupt Conway if the blue one tickles his fancy? Or can normal folk afford them?
