Woo Hooo! Man, both the track of the jam and the Ditto looper were fun! LOL
What guitar are you playing in the pic?
Being 66, I started out in '63 playing everything on the radio at gigs in Chicago, till the hippie thing hit, then it was jam bands for a long time! LOL     I can't imagine hearing any of that stuff now. I certainly don't have any and an old room-mate sent an 8 mm film of a show at the U of I, Chicago ca '69, but no sound. Oh well, it was fun to see my '68 LP Custom and Twin's with JBLs.
We rented a loft space along the river (the one Mayor Daley dumped green stuff in every St Patty's)and that was very handy, though we could only play there from 6pm till 7:30am (which we did!). After that we bought a summer camp in South Haven MI with a bunch of artists and professor types. That was very cool and extremely loose.

thanks micheal!
 
but you lost me on the ditto looper.........?
 
 
 that pic, shows me playing a 1979 Ibanez Artist 2619.
it had the typical les paul-style tone/volume wiring scheme,
but added a phase switch on the bridge pickup.
added a LOT of tonal options.
 
i used that same guitar in the "Lazeria Jam" clip.
 
 
it's really cool,
to have a place that you could go into at any time,
and do whatever you wanted, playing wise (and other, wise.) 
LOL
 
this jam kind of reflects that attitude and situation.
 

Sorry Bat, the ditto looper was from the youtube video I posted of Quintin Berry...
 
Regards,
Dan
 

OH, I GOTHCA
that's cool
 
quintin is really good at putting stuff like that together,
he's got a thousand good ideas

Yeah, him too. Birds of a feather, eh?  It would be nice to have a space like that now!

So, I posted the above and went to read a review of an interface, that led to a review of a Great River ME-1NV, which led to this one by you, Rob! I laughed out loud and thought "you're everywhere!". LOL

that's funny!
i had forgotten that i wrote that review!
 
i DID use that device for quite some time.....
it had a lot of character, going into a good tube amp already set for some grit.
much better/authentic sound than any of those pods

I was glad to find a review of it and even better that you wrote it! .., as I'd never seen/heard of that one. I had the DL4 and MM4, green echo and blue modulation modelers, and a POD2, though I only used that in my studio, along with a Yam DigiStomp, Classic ToneBone and a couple Rolands (amp farm?). All of them did some things well, and I used them on "no stage space" gigs right into the PA, but I haven't explored any of the new ones, like the HD500X, yet. All my pedals and amps went away (long story Chapt 7), so now I only have a few and am looking again. I did buy a Fender Mustang Floor, but just to "hold me" while I find the new "pile". LOL
There are an amazing selection of them now!

honestly,
at this point in my history of playing for fun and for a living,
i'd probably invest in a KEMPER  profiling amp, and a decent rig for live volume monitoring,
and call it done, if it were me, starting over.
 
i'm a tube purist, and have stuck with a really high quality tube amp for many many years now,
but after writing that review,
i realized that for working guitarists,
it was a brilliant piece of work,
 
and now, years later,
the Kemper is that equivalent for 'purists' of certain tones.
 
 
the Axe 11 is another top shelf project.
 
 
but for what it's worth,
i will sell my '82 boogie soon.
 
i will either trade out for a modern lunch box version of what i've had for so long (Mark 5:25), 
or build a custom Trainwreck clone, at about 5-10 watts max,
and get a Fender champ.
 
those two would handle everything i want to do for studio guitar work.
 
 
with modern direct boxes , it would be easy to slave those two out to a set of stereo powered monitors for stage work.
 
 
that's kinda where my head is at now.
 

you gotta remember,
this was a live jam,
with the engineer mixing in real time,
providing FX in the mix and printing in live time,
he was part of the jam,

and un rehearsed, just a moment in time.

so, the bass was the thing we were all following,
the truth of the moment was actually captured in the mix.

Loved it!  Cool stereo bass part.  I'm trying to remember who you guys sound like...someone on the Jam station on XM Satellite radio.....  Great guitar tones and lines.
Kudos to your mix engineer too!

I've retired from full time gigging, so my Princeton Reverb will be getting a Vox AC10 and probably an Orange Terror (MT?)for studio fun. A Champ clone/kit would be fun, too. I had a 1960 tweed one, '59 Bassman and '60 Concert, plus lots of Fenders over the past 5 decades, but never a Vox, nor Marshall. I would like to correct that!
    I can see the benefit/value of the Kemper and once I've got my whole studio/instruments "caught up", I might consider that, but it's not a priority.

I got to borrow a MB .22 for a ski season in Vail CO. It occurs to me, that I've owned Silvertone (1482), Carvin, Music Man(s), Roland and Peavey amps, too, but mostly it was Fender.
