Re: [Harp-L] Leslie effect

[Michael Fugazzi <mfugazzi67@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hughes and Kettner Tube Rotosphere works great for a leslie sound.  It is only a pedal instead of an amp.  Rob Lowe from Ten Feet Tall (www.tenfeettallband.com) uses one.  It sounds a lot like John Popper's leslie sound (he uses a solid state rotary amp).  Warren Haynes evidently uses this same pedal too.
   
  The Rotosphere is spendy, but is sound good and is easy to use.

Speaking of effects, I've been thinking about dusting off my Danecho
that I
basically put away when I began to play mostly acoustically. . I
remember
people saying that you lose a lot tonally through it. Any ideas /
advice?
