    Smile Hi all!

    Cool site. I just purchased a Vox AD50VT and am digging it. Been doing tons of research and found this place by way of patchtronix.com. I have been playing for 25+ years pro and semi-pro. Been around the block a bit buy I am always learning. I am a Christain and I rock for Jesus! My main amp is a Bogner Shiva but I have been messing with modelers since they came out a few years ago and I am really enjoying the Vox. God bless you all and look forward to spending some time here learning and sharing. Peace -Frank

    Frank

    Welcome aboard...The Love Boat. It's an inside joke or go to the backing track section on the forum. That will explain everything.

    Anyway, we all have a good time here and hope that you will too. I don't have one of the Vox amps that you mentioned but after hanging out here I know a lot more about them now.

    I just went to the Bogner site last night and listened to the clips of a guy that I had purchased something from. Then I just had to listen to all the other clips too. Very cool! Quite a machine.

    Enjoy yourself here.

    Welcome Frank! I have a AD50VT as well, and it is a great versatile tool. That Bogner must be a great amp!

    Wow, welcome Frank, great to have another real pro on the board! Not to mention a fellow Christian! I was checking out some of the Higher Ground tunes and you guys sound great! I was very impressed by the guitar work, which I assume was mostly yours, and your wife has a great set of pipes. IMO, there are a lot more good guitarists around than good singers, so she's a real treasure for your band and ministry.

    That Bogner Shiva is quite an amp--beautiful piece of hardware you have there! And it does my heart good to read your positive comments about your new AD50VT, because I own the 30 amp version.

    I saw in one of your other postings that you're originally from NY. What part? I'm a life-long resident of the Albany area.

    I also came across a couple of your patches posted over at the Valvetronix site. I found the two "FAS" Classic Rock patches interesting, because you approached them from the opposite way I've taken in the past. You started with a high-gain model and backed off on the gain to clean it up. I've generally started with a cleaner model and pushed the gain & volume to get the break-up tones. I'll have to fool around some now with your approach.

    Hope to see a lot more of you here!

    Welcome Frank!

    I havent really been listening to Christian music before, but I liked what I heard on your soundclick page!
    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    You know they use to blame bluesmen and Rockers for stealing Gospel songs and making them into such bad music.... this shows there is a complete circle... god would be pleased and aint that all we can ask... nice songs Frank!

    Thanks all for the kind words. When you get right down to it music is a gift from God to us. It's what we do with it that makes the differece.

    Duhvoodooman, bless you brother. I checked out your web site and it's very cool. God is good all the time!

I hope to improve my skills so I can contribute more to the small group that I play with. I have been asked to think about joining a friend who along with a few other musicians, visit the local state prison once a month. I do not believe I’m there yet, but maybe in the future.
