  Yes, ofcourse....The Seek and Ooh Wah are great. I went with the Robotalk
because the sound is kind of frantic and I liked that. I'm still going to
pick up an Ooh wah. They do different things with different flavors:-))

  Yeah, people still think they need 200 watts for a gig. I try to explain
it to my students but they don't listen...In one ear and out the other. They
see their favorite guitarist from Disturbed using a couple of stacks and are
convinced this is the only way to go:-)) I love when they get huge amps and
only can play them barely on one. They ask why their tone isn't very
good:-))
