No doubt, thanks for filling in the gaps in my memory!! (and Richard thanks
on the sustainic too!).

Would love to have these toys, and an ebow, and a hardware looper...

P.S. Since y'all remember the Gizmo, might anyone know how Steve Hackett 
got
the kind of sustain(the most graceful and thick, rich and chocolit 
beautiful
feedback ever?) he used on the song "The Steppes"? could that really have
just been his marshall/Roland space echo/les paul combo or did he have some
kind of other magic box??????

:):)I'm just askin
