Re: Fwd: [Harp-L] the amazing, the astounding - POG.

[Michael Fugazzi <mfugazzi67@xxxxxxxxx>]

I stand corrected.  I thought POG sounded familiar,
but I am probably wrong.  All I know is that the last
time I saw him, Jason had two octave pedals.  The Boss
as a preamp and then "the other one" that he used to
play octaves. Sorry for any confusion.
