Photo of the Day

Gotta love those yellow pants. All kidding aside Dave worked very hard to get on stage before he was actually scheduled to go on due to a mixup in communications and directions for a member of another band. Dave, Dusty and Sam were a real class act never complaining about being bumped up an hour and just going with the flow to help me out. Thanks guys see you again on Oct 15th. Slacktone is awesome!

i have a space cleared on my floor that this can all be set up

can't wait to see you guys next week in DC

I almost have that complete rig. I have a reverb tank, a....a.....

I don't almost have that complete rig.

You folks crack me up. I got nothing close Jon lol. Well, my cord matches

Thing is, Dave can make that stuff hmmm like the wind.

I have a tough time even looking at it lol.

Ahhh...Fender

I have an Arrowhead water bottle just like Dave's...but, my friend, Frank, who used to work at Danone waters of N. Amer. says there's deer-pee in Arrowhead water...

I am apparently a male of the same species of Dave. That is all I have in common with him and his incredible talents.

you think you could spare me one of those tanks?

...there's only one problem with a setup like Dave's: too many cords...it's all, like, confusing and stuff...

But it sounds ohhh so sweet.

as ultra cool as that rig is, the best thing in that pic is the man in yellow pants

Nice set up mister........you must have a real job. Do you get to gigs before the drummer? What kinda truck are you driving? Yup....i'm just jealous.....oh st now i'm turning green###!!!

OH, gear, I thought we were supposed to be looking at Dave's rear!

I love the blackface Slacktone amp - funny. I have a blue jewel on my Twin for that very reason!

I appreciate it when I see artists doing wild stuff like this which is why I took the picture. It tells me they are looking for new ways to stretch the envelope & please their listeners. D.W.'s performances always push the envelope.

God forbid one of those cables fries out. You'd have to run a diagnostic test to figure out which one it is!

Oooh, that's Fender-y!

i wonder what that purple stomp box out in front does???...never seen one of those...

Use [url] not [img]

Dang! that didn't work either!!!

Here ya go!

Spring reverb?

I wonder, what is that thing between the reverb tanks?

Something like a stereo........ ?

Spy, that is a genuine tape echo unit!

wonder if he hauled out all that gear on Sat morning at 6 am?

That thing between the tanks is a "Maestro EhcoPlex" nothing sounds better to my ear. Mostly I like the fact that it,s an analog system.," therefore you get a much warmer sound. I own two of them. Only use one at a time right now.

What's the combo?

Dave WHO?

Paul, that is Dave "the man"

I was being sarcastic!

I know, so was I.

see what happens when people don't use smileys?

they really are very helpful

Nice rig.. Do you do a A & B or both amps at the same time?

Never A/B... always have both on. The Bassman has the tube Echoplex, and the brown 1962 reverb, the Slacktone amp has a built-in 3 knob style reverb, plus the black '65 reverb unit. Overkill? Why 3 reverbs? sometimes I push the pan forward for a quicker reverb envelope. This, combined with the longer reverbs gets some good stuff happening.

great setup. what is the colorful looking purple pedal?

It's a Colorsound tremolo. It does the Vox style machine gun style of tremolo well. I don't use it now, the new Slacktone amp has a great Vibrato... it does it all!

Want.

There are times when I really wish I had money. Like always.

I've got more! [uh...pedals]

The stuff that dreams are made of.

I love this picture. The work to deliver the real thing to the people.
Noting the amps are mic'd way out close the edge of the cone as well; interesting.

He has the most beautiful tone I've ever heard live, it's a superb balance of detail, warmth, and power, it sparkles. Just amazing. His top notch playing and marvelous rig are unparalleled.
