Thanks for the suggestions. Chris, I would be glad to drop in to the RISGA get together. I don't know how I would carry the EMMONS D10 as I am just about carrying myself.

I have both the Mark 50 watt head and combo with an 8 inch speaker and Little 250.head. Very impressive amplifiers for a reasonable cost.

Um, just turned 75 and I'm still living the dream. I am not organized and at times have no idea what I'm doing. Keep going forward and evolve and have some fun along with the frustration.

I have several of the GP-100 units. If you don't want to use the preamp, you can shut it off and just use the effects. The reverbs, delays, chorus, etc. are among the best I have heard.

Curly certainly had his own voice on the C6. I have been watching Youtube clips of his playing and admire the way he used the low strings in his phrasing.

Something is wrong with the hook up wiring as Steve mentioned. I have a Sesh 400 and a Straight Ahead power amp and there is plenty of power to spare.
