Check out my profile.
I also have an '87 Kramer Pacer Custom and the GNX1 pedal shown has been upgraded to a GNX2.

God bless!

As someone that was introduced to a form of Catholic School torture through accordion lessons, I soon learned I far more loved the sound of a guitar.

I am an adult who would like to learn some time.
I have for practice some acoustic guitar of some quality and to tease myself into future good times I picked up a new 1999 Hamer ecotone that is pretty much a lot like this:

What is a good little amp to get for that as a starter amp that is fairly cheap but sounds good.
Later I will get something better when I deserve it.

Mine's black, but here's an El-cheapo Steinberger bass clone by Cort, which I play very poorly.

I have a Dean electric. It looks just like this one, but the finish is a little darker, called Tiger Stripe.

I also have an Alvarez 12-string that sounds like angels singing.

I run the Dean through a Pod XT and the ALvarez through an octaver, and sometimes a stereo chorus.

Just for grins, I also have an E-Bow and a Crybaby wah pedal.

I was watching VH1 last night- they had like two hours of Rush- interviews, videos, concert footage, and Geddy Lee used to play a bass like that (black) during the Power Windows/ Presto era.

Thanks! I got it from one of the owners of Dean. They make them here in Tampa. I also have an American Strat, but I like the Dean better.

Is that a Dean or a PRS?

It is a Dean. They look awfully similar, but for some reason, PRSs feel really weird to me.

They're also a lot less expensive than a PRS!
