Robben Ford Discussion

I snapped this picture while driving to work last fall and finally got around to posting it. I don't know the driver of this car, or if they're even aware of Robben and his endeavors, but it's pretty ...

I was behind a car here in Connecticut yesterday with the plate "BLU LNE" (we're only allowed 6 characters). When I get the film developed, I'll scan a copy and provide a link. Pretty darned cool. Very Happy

Hey Flavum, I remember that incident with Robben wanting to play your LP. I was there. I thought it odd at the time (it was just before the clinic began, right?) and never heard the story behind it ...

Great thread with lots of informative (and polite!) opinions offered.

Scott - I think I'll be sending my ODS-100 to Andy for the modifications you've talked about. If I can set my amp like that pic ...

Thanks for the tips guys. I'm already using a TC 2290 in my effects loop, so I'd prefer not to set the loop to series operation.

I'll give Andy a call about the latest mods and ask what my options ...

This is frustrating...

I've had my Fuchs ODS-100 since March (or maybe February), and I'm still having a heck of a time dialing in my tone at reasonable volume. If I set my amp like Scott's, I'd be ...

This is as close as I can get. Late spring, 1977. I'm the hippy on the right with the pony tail. And yes, the bassist is using a blue-sparkle "Tuck 'n' Roll" Kustom bass amp.

Thanks to everyone for the excellent posts! It's been over a year since the clinic that I was fortunate enough to attend, and I echo everyone's sentiments.

I'm wondering if anyone took a picture of ...

FWIW, I believe Mr. Dumble used Altec speakers in his older combos and cabinets.

John: You'll have a wonderful time at Robben's clinic. And besides the musical enlightenment, spending a day or two in Ojai can be very uplifting in and of itself. Enjoy!

I wonder what would happen if I put a flexloop in that loop? I'd regain parallel-ality (new word), ability to put pedals in the loop, and get another tone shape-able gain stage. Are these Flexloops a ...

I have no problem with PayPal, and my donation's been made. Remind me next year and I'll renew. Very Happy
