The jaguar is purple metalflake {big flake, like a hot
rod}, with kind of a rasberry tint to it which looks
red under lights. The paint was done by Jason Davis, a
former Fender Custom Shop Master Builder, in his own
shop.
The green box is a tube Echoplex, with the cartridge
now loaded with Ampex/Quantagy 456 tape. I have three
of these magic machines. I still have a Memory Man
which I think is a great echo. I used one on the Euro
tour last year because my reverb in the Slacktone Amp
was not right, so I needed to carry a Fender reverb
unit. I usually bring an Echoplex as carry on, but
this time it had to be a tank.
I like the borrowed MM so much, I bought one when I
got home. I got it on Ebay, and it has a true bypass
mod. The power light is now echo off/on indicator.
True bypass is cool except if you want to use the MM
on only
one of your two amps. {If you use two at the same
time}
The problem is that the phase flips 180* between echo
off/on, it screws up the two amp combo thing.Use MM on
both amps, and no problem.
Yeah, it's a new song. Gotta get your feet wet sooner
or later...
