Now that I know what a Shotglass is, I'm inclined to agree. I guess the only savings is in paying less dollars for less controls,
not less weight. I'm not so much concerned just about having to carry around my Speakeasy, as I am concerned with lightening my
entire rig (isn't that one of the reasons we're all taking Clones and not real B3's to the gig?). It would be nice if the Speakeasy
was the only piece of gear besides my keyboard that I had to lug around, but it's not. So far, AFAIC the only way to get the tone a
Speakeasy gives you is to lug one around, and while I'd rather NOT have to lug one around, I can tell you it's the last piece of
gear I'd ever give up.
