Subject:VCOMBO.....


Well, one week into this tour and the Vcombo is holding up well. It still has its quirks, and the difference in tone between in it and the Electro has me rethinking my drawbar use BIG TIME. I think that's the biggest disparity between the clones: YOu get used to certain registrations on the instrument you've been using, but they don't translate quite the same on a new instrument. I know when I got my Electro, it changed the way I thought about the 5 3/4 drawbar, and now the VCombo has me rethinking the top two drawbars. It also has me rethinking percussion use as well (I love using percussion, and the characteristics of the VCombo's percussion is a lot different than the Electro's and my Hammonds...I have to use SOFT all the time or the initial THONK will rip your head off.



Anyway.....Greetings from Greece (for today)....so far, it's been Naples, Rome, Sevilla, Spain....tomorrow, Souda Bay, Greece.

Later!!!!!!!!!!
