Having now spent a day with it I will vouch for this assessment. A little steeper learning curve than suits my 65 year old brain filled with too much stuff already….BUT…it seems to be manageable and not too hard to get to ‘set it and forget it’ with three ‘presets’ available. 1. Pedal off - just clean amp. 2. The ‘live’ footswitch that you can adjust on the fly, but I like to set it and forget it. 3. The ‘preset’ footswitch that has downloaded settings . So I can dial in three distinct tones with this box….i think. Still figuring it out, but that’s really all I need. So far my only complaint is that the Bluetooth connect that connects to the phone app is not reliable. You have to re-pair frequently if you are trying to figure it all out.

This guitar is a monster player. Playing it with three different amps, with and without a drive pedal. Sounds huge and beautiful no matter what it is paired with. I had to stop because my ears were ringing.

the Millie i bought from Brent showed up last night. Haven’t had a lot of time with it yet, but man oh man this is a great guitar! Brent comes through again! Minty fresh, like it has been played very little. Tuners still feel new. Sounds more like a semi-hollow because of the chambered body, which is exactly what i was looking for. No feedback issues but still a big and round enough sound for jazz, soulful blues, R/B, and fusion. My band has been getting loud and my archtops often feedback. I guess I’ll be one of those players that switches guitars depending on the song. Yes, overkill for the kinds of gigs we get, but it will give me more flexibility to get funky or louder jamming and use some drive/breakup when the moment calls for it. Just plain FUN. I’ve been playing straight ahead for so long I’m ready to get down and dirty before i get too old. I’ll post some pictures over the weekend, but they probably wont be as good as Brent’s. It really is as gorgeous in person as it is in the photos in his for sale post. Thank you @brentrocks for the great transaction and fast shipping, well packed as always. I also got it a friend: a UA Enigmatic ‘82 pedal. They make a great pair.

Just bought a used one on Reverb . I need to stop looking at these posts. Costs me a lot of money. will report back. I got it to go with my new Millie courtesy of world renowned Brent’s Emporium. Arrives tomorrow.

Looks really interesting for Carlton, Mayer, Santana tones. Now you’ve got me hunting for a used one on reverb. Dammit!
