In honor of your apparent melancholy, I will now post something I never intended on posting. I bought a used Line 6 Echo Park today, mostly because I didn't have a small delay with a tap tempo on it, but it has all sorts of fiddly bits in there.  This was merely a test run of the pedal. I edited it down from six minutes or so to make it....um...shorter as well as remove the knob turning.  Perhaps the squishy sounds the knobs made would have improved this. Three or four different delay settings were used, including the backwards guitar solo. That setting was a fun surprise.

Not to be outdown by all these recent guitar purchases, I got the cutest little thing for camping.  I played it for an hour in the store, and it stayed in tune pretty well for a crap little thing.  It is super tiny, somewhere between a classical guitar and a ukelele.  I hope it will last beyond my next kayak camping trip.

I could have listened to a lot more of that going nowhere, some really nice sounds. And that's a pretty little acoustic, my old Framus is about the same size, small but very playable. Enjoy..............Willie

I've seen those guitars and really dig them! I also dig the tunage.

Sweet tones and riffs - I could listen to your style for hours!  Killer toys too!  I just got what they call a Guitarlele by Yamaha.  REAL small - like a standard nylon neck but cut off at the A fret.  I detune to G and love it!

Is your Luna a 3/4 scale?  I couldn't find it online.

Yes.  It's 34.5 inches long.

I didn't mean to imply that this guitar is great by any means. I just wanted something I could take river camping, and this one was fun and stayed in tune fairly well. It's tone is rather toy-like almost, but I think I could see recording with this for something different or to double a part.

By the by, Luna's website is here (http://www.lunaguitars.com/acousticproduct/safarimusespruce.php).

Thank you much for listening, folks.

Blooby

Edit: Hardlock, I just followed your link.  That guitar looks like a load of fun.  I like the uke/guitar tuning concept.

A great 2.5 minutes Blooby.  Well worth developing further.

Nice jam Blooby. Pedal sounds pretty cool.

A little bit of Allman Bros influence in there me thinks.

You've got some pretty serious guitar skills there man.

Oh yeah! I agree with LG, you have that Jerry Garcia vibe going on in this cool jam. The L6 Echo sounds good and it seems pretty quiet also......nice jammin.....is a full song is in the making?

I was looking forward to 6 minutes of this! It was grooving away nicely and stopped too suddenly for me. Had a hint of tomorrow never knows for me, must have been the backwards stuff. Enjoyed it a lot, sounds like a cool pedal.

Cheers,

Nigel
