    Can everyone on earth all agree…*best clean guitar*

    Yep. We saw EJ three nights in a row during the AVM tour. Holy cr@p! It was a borderline religious experience. On night 3, we were in this tiny club in Sacramento, the Cattle Club. And he brought his full arsenal. Absolutely magical.

    So I guess everyone drenches their sound in delay now?

    I like 2-3 delay repeats for leads, but no reverb when running distortion. Clean tones are a different beast.
