Hi all.....
I'm *new* around here, as I've (gasp....) lurked for a while
:)
I saw Kaki King open for the Tony Levin Band a while back at
the Bottom Line, and she basically just walked out on stage, chewing and
snapping her gum, and then proceeded to blow us all away! I saw no loopers...she
gets her layers from her excellent playing. At first, I thought she was a
Crafty, but she used no pick...
Well, a little about me:
I've only been taking guitar lessons and playing for two
years. Early lessons conflicted with night school obligations, but hey, I did
it! Night school is done, degree in hand, time to turn my studies toward guitar
:)
Here's my setup, so far:
Ibanez 6-string acoustic/electric, Ibanez 12-string acoustic,
Fernandes Monterey Elite w/ Sustainer, Digitech RP-100 effects box, Boss CH-1
Super Chorus, Boss RC-20 looping station, all into a Fender Reverb Deluxe
amplifier.
Sooooo, I basically use the looper to practice with by soloing
over it, but I am also interested in getting more serious about looping, with
percussion, etc layered in.
I think I have enough on my plate for now. My next pieces of
equipment will be Line6 DL-4 and the Line6 Filter Modeler, perhaps the Boss
octave pedal. These should open some doors for sounds, huh?
I enjoy reading everyone's posts, and I do believe that I will
learn a thing or two. I especially like to go out and see live looping, so if
anyone plays in and around NJ, please post to the digest, I'll be there :)
