Hilton VP

I have sent Andrew some info to help determine which version the Hilton volume pedal is, so clarification might be coming shortly. In either case, some other expenses have come up for me, so I will not be able to purchase this pedal even if it is the low profile. Just letting others know this is sti...

Hilton VP Tuner Out

I'm keeping an eye out for a used Hilton Low Profile VP. Is there any way to tell if a used (or new?) Hilton has the "tuner out" feature? Is the tuner out jack in addition to the 2 amp out jacks, maybe on the other side, or is it an interior wiring mod on one of the amp out jacks, so from ...

Hilton VP

Is the Hilton a Regular or Low Profile? If it's the Low Profile, I'll take it, if still available. Thanks

Mickey Adams Contact Info

I'm a huge fan of Mickey; I purchased my first 2 Steel guitars from him many years ago, both Mullen PRP's, a brown woodgrain D-10, and a Ferrari Red, (or Fire Engine Red?), SD-12, both wonderful, singing guitars, thanks to Mickey hand selecting them for me. I've been "sidetracked" (by my l...

Tell that to the Everly Brothers and Billy Vaughan, to name but a few.. I'm sorry but for the sake of posterity and general diligence, that's totally incorrect information. Just consider what a vocal backing group does regarding harmonies. I can't agree about the sheet music statement either, take ...

I was watching the YT video of Brad Paisley doing Walk of Life, from a recent thread on "MSA Sounds", and I found this version with Mark and Paul. What a great sound mix of the players' guitars; clear and clean, solid and rockin' !!!! And Paul lights it up at the end, like "frosting o...

Right Hand Technique & Picks

Hi Graeme; I relate to everything you've said. I too find my plain fingers to be much more "in touch" with the strings, compared to when I put picks on. I assume that dexterity with picks will come later, and right now I play a lot without picks, but then I always put in some time with the...
