I think I want a Flint

Post by jeremyb »

The lure of the sterilemon is strong, I mean John Mayer used one with his PRS J-Mod so they must be awesome right??? at least they hold their value secondhand so if I do buy one... but then again new they're almost as much as I paid for my amp... which has a decent spring reverb already... and the JHS chorus I have does a nice vibrato... urgh... red wines... rant... what would you all do????'

I've had two of those, I probably need a third as I've had 3 vox amps now...

I love mine! Have genuinely considered buying a second so I can have reverb and tremolo pre- and post-Iridium.

Does the iridium not have an effects loop?

I should mention that continuum era John Mayer tone has a subtle vibrato on it, hence my interest...

The Hydra and the Rooke were on my radar today, the flint just does that subtle thing so well...
