Novo's new model, the Idris, their take on a Strat. And it's right up there with the best Fender Custom Shop models. Might even kick my Xotic HSS out the door, it's that good!

You’ll need some nice amps to go with that now

How you finding that TAE Conway? Curious whether the product/design is holding up, now that the chatter (good and bad) seems to have died down a bit. Ever had a chance to compare to a Power Station?

I haven't compared it to a Freyette PS, but I have to an Ox Box and I find the TAE to be better. It is very effective for attenuation and maintaining tone. I use the TAE effects loop and usually run 2 cabs off it via the De Lisle Amp/Cab selector. Wouldn't be without it.

I really like the idea of the Tube Amp Expander. I found it so frustrating that the made it have stereo effects, stereo line outs, two speaker outputs.... But the speaker outs are parallel not stereo. I'd imagine the cost wouldn't have been too much higher to add a second power amplifier, and it'd be amazing to turn a single tube amp into a stereo rig.

Yeah, but can it do Hip and Hop?
