I gave a listen to your songs.........
Is there a reason that all 21 tunes are in the key of E, using the same basic setting on the beat box, with most at the same tempo (a couple a bit faster & a couple more a bit slower) and 'Devil Voice' talkie vocals?

Sorry if I sound like Simon Cowell, but I really don't hear any Variety.

Only my (AH) opinion, but it seems to be an exercise in "21 Ways to Re-write the Same Tune" (over & over).

It's not my intent to come off as negative.... I'm just poking in the dark and curious as to what you are trying to achieve with this 'album'.....

Again, I apologize for "not getting it" or "being an old fogey"..... however, I've listened to everything from sappy 50's rock to deth metal out of Northern Europe and even Black Oak Arkansas had a full mix of material with non-singing, rap-style demonic vocals 30 years ago..... I'm in a quandary here..... or am I just lost in a foggy conundrum?

Gorgeous Strat and 37 different sounds. However, I've known a few guys that bought them, freaked out at all the battery changes and expense, then took them back. I'm curious to know if you'll still be happy with it in a few months. I'd have gotten one but for those friends who said it needs a direct plug-in for power, especially since none of them are wire-less. I suspect if there were two versions, battery-powered built-in on-board wire-less and direct powered, the latter would be the huge majority of sales.

I've seen ads for the new Deluxe version with Noiseless pickups, a vast improvement, but there's still a long way to go IMHO. I want one with user-interface, TYVM, as some of the pre-set 'open-tunings' aren't to my liking and I'm sure a ton of guys would want to program their own as well. THAT would be a REAL improvement.

Actually, for the money, I think it should also come with Gold Plated Hardware, Gold Locking Tuners, the metalic logo and a custom tooled leather HS case included.

I haven't had any problem with battery life yet. The key is to unplug it whenever it's not being used. 8)

The tunings it has are the most useful ones IMHO. Having too many would make it less useful, as it is now, you can twirl the dial without looking at it because there is limited choices. That makes it more practical in a gig situation. :D

You need to check out what these are selling for "on the street". They are not expensive at the moment... :wink:

AjayTele: What I meant when I said 'user-interface' was that any of the open tunings could be changed to the owner's liking. You'd STILL only have the limited choices while performing, BUT they'd be ones you can make the best use of in your playing style applied to your group's song list. An obvious pair of examples are open E9 and C6 for slide players & (occasional) pedal steel or Dobro guys.

"The Street" prices still work off from the factory List and when the maker 'suggests' that the full price devours nearly 3G with case & tax... Yike! ..... of course, if you divide it down by 37, it seems cheap PER sound, but that assumes you can put every one of them to good use.

I don't know if that's a type of logical thinking or being practical in a POV or some kind of 'justification' for spending the bucks.... but it still ends up being just an opinion.....

I am fairly new to this fourum and have a question. I would love to place a pic of mine; however, I cannot load the pic. How do you load a pic and get it to stay?
