Really like your demos. AFO is in order for you. Keep it up. Tom's pedals and the Dipinto look good on each other.

The Phantom Arcade and a 4 pup geet make a fine pair! I'd imagine with the Phantom's super-interactive nature,and the endless tonal possibilities of that guitar,there'd be some mighty unique sounds flyin 'round the room :cool: Awesome demo,man! Can't wait to hear what you and Tom lay on us next :joy:

Always love your demo vids, Burgs!...but I was just wondering..it seems like you get your hands on stuff before the companies even really announce them :?:
For instance, the Middleman still isn't on the GreenHouse Effects site. (and whatever happened to that modulation pedal they were supposedly working on? :poke:)

Yes, this is true: I often get sent protos or demo units before the builders ship them. I guess I'm 'The Messenger', Lol. Kind of flattering, really. Roy over at Greenhouse handed out a couple of the Middlemen to people he thought could spread the work. Dweezil got one too, and I noticed he used it on The Tonight Show the other night to do some Alice Cooper stuff. That's a pretty good endorsement if ever there was one. Roy tells me he's 'still working on..' the mod effect. He won't tell me what it is, though.. :( Cheers, BK.

Oh crap, sorry man! My sincere apologies. I get around 200 emails per day thanks to the blessed YouTube channel and sometimes I miss stuff. What's up? (if you can remember..!)

The AFO looks like a ton of fun!

I think it was a question regarding your YouTube videos..more specifically, if you take requests? (or if you have to wait til a builder offers to let you demo something..)

Sure, I take requests. If I've got the gear and the time, I can build it! :) What do you have in mind..?

The video: I can 'build*' it - or 'make' it. Silly term of phrase..

*Edit: I was down in Brazil a couple of years ago with the band. We were scheduled to play an outdoor show to 20,000 or so at 8PM. When we rolled up for the soundcheck at 2PM the stage hadn't even been built but some army guys were there milling around, so we asked, "Umm..you know there's a very large concert happening here this evening.. where's the stage?" Their reply, "Don't worry, we will build it!" And they did. Just in time. Brazil is a very relaxed place. Lol.

aha! I get it now :lol: pretty clever, actually..well :erm: in that case...do you by any chance have a D-Dyna Thinman OD? (or a Crowther Audio P&C?)
I've often wished that you had a demo of one of these on your channel :omg:

No, I've only ever heard of the Thinman. I've never laid eyes, ears or feet on one, though. However, I've just sent Dyna an email with an expression of interest to cover their gear so we'll see what transpires..

Re the Prunes & Custard: I spoke to Paul a couple of weeks ago following the suite of vids I did for the Double Hot Cake. He wants me to cover the P&C but didn't have PCB's for them at the time. Since then the Christchurch earthquake happened so I've been a little reluctant to hound him in case he was caught up in it. I'll ask again next week, though, as I'm kinda keen to see what it can do as well.
