一群自稱不很愛用fx、只用高價amp的無聊老外的碎碎唸: You may be an FX junkie if.... 1) no one can walk by your side of the stage without stepping on a pedal. 2) you can't help looking at 【Fulltone, Meantone, fill in the boutique】 pedals on ebay--even though they go for more than retail. 3)you've bought pedals on ebay only to realize you'd owned the same ones before. 4)you take more distortion pedals than guitar picks with you on a gig. 5)you are more upset if you forget a pedal than a guitar on a gig. 6)your pedalboard weighs more you do. 7)you think the "Hallelujah Chorus" is the latest digital "COMS-tech" pedal from Boss.(這條挺酷...) 8)the pedal you bought on ebay IS your old pedal. 9)you know more about ground loops than chord substitutions.(好像在說本人) 10)you feel worried 'cos can't find how to set the LFO for the tremolo on that vintage Vibrolux. 11)you enjoy discussing the merits of different brands of A/B/Y pedals.(不知在說誰?) 12)when you play, people stare at your pedalboard instead of you for most of the show. 13)you finally find the best tone.....it's labeled "bypass". 14)your guitar and amp fit fine in the Civic, but you needed to buy a truck for the pedalboard. 15)Eric Johnson calls YOU looking for a vintage fuzz, then... 16)The Edge calls you with a rack question. 17)George L sends you a Christmas card each year. 18)at your last holiday gig, your rack had more lights than the Christmas Tree next to it. 19)you've considered playing on a stool, freeing up both feet for effects switching. 20)you've finally figured out a way to use a MIDI CC pedal to control your drummer's tempo. 21)your rack has an interactive video interface with a human face on a black background named, "Holly". 22)you're beginning to worry about tendonitis in your feet due to excessive pedal stomping and patch changing. 23)during the really cool, complex part of the last song of your set (the part with all the effects changes), you heard someone from the audience comment regarding their enthusiastic approval of you trying to incorporate tap dancing into your stage show. 24)no guest player could sit in on your rig without several hours of training. 25)you have a picture of Bob Bradshaw in your wallet. 26)your car runs off of phantom power. 27)your pedalboard is actually mounted on a 8ft section of a wing from an old B-29. 28)you annual budget for 9 volt batteries exceeds $5,000.
上次在河岸留言聽完羅希的團之後 深深的感覺到一個好的amp是有多麼重要 他用的pedals和導線 電源供應等都只能說是普普 ts9 Tube King DD3 95Qwah .... 唯一稱得上高級的就是他的prs和top had音箱 但是他那天的tone真是有如天籟 好聽到不行啊!! 看來amp果然是tone的靈魂啊... 別再執著於效果器了 一把好琴和好音箱才是實在啊!
