Yeah! I even joined the online support group. Which has helped me out tremendously.

Hey Paul....you're FINE...your opinions are appreciated. It's great that people care enough to contribute. You recently talked about the quality and sound of a small Carvin amp. I use and like this unit, and you thought it was just so so. So what? In this case,we didn't really have different opinions, since I realize the limitations of the Carvin. I use it for flexibility, ease of hook up and breakdown. You are right in your observations, but I have seen little things like this, like discussions of the build quality and appropriateness of the Logtech systems, escalate into something much more.

Your effort to be nice is admirable, but as far as I'm concerned "much to do about nothing".

Hang in there. I look at and appreciate your opinions and approach to equipment and the business. And, who knows? You just might teach this "old fart" a thing or two.

Best regards,


Russ

Thanks Russ, I really appericate that. I don't remember talking about the quality of a carvin amp? Maybe I did I don't recall though. Dang Brain Fart. The only amplifier that I have worked with is a Crown CE-1000! Which is a very powerfull amplifiere. Though it's not the same type of amp most musicains would use. Mine was designed for DJ'ing, but it can be used for pluging in a keyboard or guitar provided you have a Mixer to connect to the AMP. Also I have a pair of Peavy Speakers which are good ones too. But living in a Condo I could not use the speakers and AMP to there fullest potenital.

As far as a good amp Marshal is usually the best brand since a lot of guitar players use Marshal tube amps. Gibson would be second best. But this is only my opinion. Peavy is good as well. As for Carvin I really don't know to much about them.

However, I am starting to learn more and more about other peices of equipment not just synthesizers. Like Mixers, and Studio Monitors. Mackie makes some really great mixers, and alesis makes some good studio monitors. However I did find there is a Pair of stuido montiors that Yamaha makes that I think sound fantasitc. The only montiors that I have are a pair of Powered Monitors form TEAC. PowerMax/1602. They only cost $99.00.

One last thing. I did mange to gain new found confidence in myself. I am finnaly able to drive a clutch without stalling. I have never driven one before so this is a first. After messing up about the last six or seven times. This time I did it without thinking and without worrying about whether I was going to stall out or grind gears.

OOPS! I want to retract one thing. Gibson no longer makes amplifires.

Actually, Paul, Gibson does sell a line of high-quality Class A tube amps. Never played one, but they're listed in the latest Musicians Friend.

Oh! I did not know that! I thought they had discontinued them. Thanks Russ.
