I think the high gainers might be interested in the BlackVerb. And of course the /13 which is big Marshall all round.

Given the similarities and differences, I'll be interested to hear how it compares to yours.

Re: Tronfest May 10..2014
Unplugged, I'd say it's a bit like comparing a Les Paul (Korinacaster) to a 335 (Feathercaster). They're as resonant and responsive as each other but in quite different ways. The Korinacaster feels more solid and serious (and rockier) where the Feathercaster is bouncy/lively. I'd also say that the Korinacaster is probably more most people's cup of tea but the Feathercaster is funkier and more meslowfingers wrote:Yeah. Designed by and for a ham fisted gorilla.

Interesting...

Solid and serious sounds right too; I tend to reach for it when the fuzz and delay are turned on. Though Stewie from The Barnshieks turns it into a wonderful sounding jazz guitar.
