FYI I seem to recall reading that the Johnson amps have a built in Digitech 2112. What Mr. Belew describes is just scratching the surface. ALSO The news at Harmony Central says that T.C. Electronics is coming out with a new delay box. No price was given. The brief description reminded me of the Korg DL-8000. Good day all!
