So, my uncle was over and tried out my Invader.

Karl Hungus · 03-06-2008, 03:08 PM

Sorry guys, didn't get any pics, but even if I did, I don't think my uncle would want to be up on the net.

Anyway, my uncle is a big country player, so it was rather interesting to see him playing a 7 string through a 100 watt high gain half stack, but I was walking him through the different settings and channels, and he was mega-impressed. Lots of compliments.

Not much of a story really, but it's cool to hear just how impressed someone who's into country was with the amp, really speaks a lot about the versatility of the Invader, and the quality of the lower gain settings.

Here's a pic of an Invader anyway:

Nice

now your uncle is more metal now

My father plays bluegrass guitar and banjo. He is absolutely fascinated with my sevens.

"Wow, that's low. Is that what Merle Haggard was using?"
"No, Dad, that was a baritone. Same note, though."
"So, you can get two guitars on one? Cool."

DelfinoPie · 03-06-2008, 03:38 PM

Haha, thats awesome.

It must be awesome to have other family members who play instruments and to get together and jam and what not

That definitely shows amp versatility...so now you know, just in case you have a change in musical direction

budda · 03-06-2008, 05:17 PM

that's pretty sweet. waht did he have to say about the thought of running a tele into the clean channel?

yeah, i went there :P. my brother is learning to play guitar, but no one else in my family plays an instrument. they dont give me money so i can play mine either
