So I e-mailed about the amp. The response came back in broken English. It seems it is a modeling amp to some degree as it has an amp simulator. It does have a preamp built in with 2 12ax7's. The guy was quoting most of the prices under $1000. I just don't know if that's Brazilian money or US money. I tried calling to Brazil to speak with him but as he can't speak English well and the closest I got to Portuguese is Spanish you can imagine the disaster that was. The amps are made in a small factory by hand in Sao Paulo, Brazil. I think they might be worth a shot. If anyone wants a copy of the E-mail just hit me up.

That dude was really skilled. My guess is at least in his 20's. Like someone said before, the impressive thing was the accuracy with which he played. But would I be wrong if I said the Isabella video was a bit queer :p

He's 25. That's a fact not a guess. So, who won the pool?

That's pretty good. Those are some real good backing tracks too. The dude's got skills for sure. I enjoyed it.

I knew he wasn't a teen. I think I will be getting the amp he was using but Moises said that he has a better model. I can get a 2x10 combo for $350 US. The shipping will be outragous but I think it'll be worth it.

Look for it in gear review in about a month. He builds them custom and made to order. He said on average it'll take him a month to build and test and all that Jazz. Then the slow ride from Brazil...probably mid-February early March. Just in time for my birthday. :D

I'm curious how much shipping will be for it?

I'm getting a Holy Sound II 2x10 with tube preamp and red boost high gain channel for $350 American money. The shipping is $150.00 :eek: . I thought it would be worse than that though. So $500 total Which I think is just dandy. Across the Atlantic it might cost a few more pounds or euros whatever. Damn Europeans and thier weird currency.

I know give me a break! :rolleyes: I really liked this guy and I won't lie to say I've been trying to learn Re Menor Philharmonic. It's a task to say the least but I can play the slow parts. :p I think the new guys that haven't seen him yet might like to give him a look.

Oziel Zinho- Re Menor Philharmonic Good stuff

Oh yeah the amp deal fell thru. It became clear that actually getting my money over there was going to be more hassle than it was worth. Still $500 was cheap for what sounded like a good tube amp combo. Ahh well that's life.

Sean can still kiss my butt. Damn Englishmen and thier pence and what not.
