Question! - Do your churches book artists to come in? We've had Mark Lee (Third Day) up a couple times here in SW Ohio. He's also a heavy PRS player! If you want to touch base, drop me a PM.

So how do you like the FM9? Pros? Cons?

Hey everyone! I've just recently entered the world of "Kemper profiling" and love it. I've profiled a half dozen amps or so and am impressed with the replication! How many use a Kemper? My Sunburst 22 is very Kemper friendly these days. For the last month, all I need to do is carry this 11 lb...

I compromised and went to 9.5's...love 'em! Almost always in tune...no breakage!

Yep! I kick in a Strymon Riverside near the end when the dynamics increase. I dial in a lush ethereal reverb shimmer on the HX Effects for that one. And, welcome!

Wow...6 bands??? Is there player overlap? Lol, we only have 40-50 on a great day in church. Our's is small, seating a max of about 200. Right now we lack a drummer, so the keyboard player programs a rhythm section as close as he can. Thus, we have keys, two guitar players and one bass player...

Yes, I do when the song requires it. Have a listen to Chris Tomlin's "Our God". And, there are many others. Third Day, Casting Crowns, Mercy Me...these artists and many others have songs that have overdrive/distortion, etc., and we replicate that when the song calls for it. Wondering why it...

By the way, new amp day for me! Swapped my Stapleton Princeton for this Cub IV...love it! '][/URL]

Bummer about the pedal, Gtrbldr! While on the topic of playing, I'm noticing some of you seem to play every week (I do) and some go through a specific schedule or rotation. So...curious...do you who play weekly prefer that? And, do you who rotate desire to play more often? i love my weekly...

Yep...always comes down to what an individual likes. And amps...and pedals...and....LOL! :)

I've converted about three guitars from rotary to simple toggles...here's may take. A guitar with the rotary switch is best for either the studio or to select 1 or 2 positions when playing live. The toggle? ABSOLUTELY best for live gigging. I've always seen a myriad of choices as studio...

One of my fave worship songs we do. After Third Day took their year off (and before their farewell tour), I'd booked Mark Lee at a couple churches (ours included). I'd asked him one favor...to do 'I've Always Loved You' with myself and our drummer. He not only obliged the request, he worked out...

Deepender, it'll get there! LOVE seeing an equipment-slant for worship band and needs we have that often are a bit different than many players...in some respects. Lefty...that's an AWESOME bass! lol...a whole 'nother meaning of it being 'lit'!!! brad

Welcome aboard, Chris! Folks, sorry for the absence...LOTS of amp repairs and KLON-clone building/modding. I'm also happy to announce the adoption of my new "PRS to play in church"! Welcoming Angelus SE to the fold! :p Come to find out that Mark Lee used one of these on the entire Third Day...

OH!!!! It's been over a week and y'all must be busy with Jesus' birth upon us! :) So...my last few weeks have been interesting. I LOVED the idea of (and) having two PRS' to enjoy swapping between. It was really cool! I made the Singlecut into what I wanted. But, when that Princeton handwired...
