My 3x10 plus horn weighs the same as a small planet but I love it so. I sometimes wonder about rehousing the guts in a vertical format in a lighter cab. One day maybe.

The Polytone is prettier, but really that is the only difference. I cannot speak for them sonically because mine is on a tuner out.

This one does it for me. It sits in my tuner out and is fine and dandy. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PT-06-Guitar-Pedal-Tuner-Chromatic-Pedal-Tuner-True-Bypass-for-Electric-Guitar-/401195568828?hash=item5d691e8ebc

You know, fancy dan wood tops are all well and good, but when you can follow the grain all the way round an instrument - that is where it is at!

I have not experienced these issues. As with any pedal which changes the sound to something else (Boss OC2 and Korg G5 in my experience) there has to be an element of technique change sometimes - I see it as playing a new instrument.

Dual-gang blah blah blah. I have no idea what you are talking about, but I DO have an MPM01 in a bass and it has a pan pot in it to choose Mag/Piezo or blend.

Thanks MM!

I am a long time member of the MU. I believe that Unions are a good thing. It is MU negotiated fees which are paid by the media. As soon as that splinters then the fees take a complete nose dive - and this is from the companies which would have no material without the actual performers. When I have had TV companies messing me around about payments, one phone call to the Union makes the magic happen. People talk about going it alone and independance and all that - media companies love that stuff. For them that equals paying less. In Welsh TV there is even a non union and a union rate of pay. You can guess which is the lowest. This despite the production company doing their initial costings (and getting funding) using MU rates. Obviously there are all sorts of situations where the Union can be seen as ineffective, but if you have a signed Union contract for a date then things tend to go very smoothly. There is also the aspect of industry lawyers looking over any contracts offered to members. Is the MU perfect? No, nothing is. But I prefer it to no union. I do not use it often but when I do it is effective. If it does not operate in the sphere you are working in then it is obviously not effective.

I have started to work with a guitarist who has 3 acoustics on stage and at least 5 tunings between them during a set. Has anyone got direct experience with the roadie tuner https://www.roadietuner.com/. It looks like it could make life a whole lot easier, but not if it is useless! TIA
