[HAM] Auger chopgoffmac747 at aol.com goffmac747 at aol.comMon Jun 25 06:44:37 CDT 2007
True. However on the side of chops, it's interesting that someone like Auger who would have no problem moving his equipment, chooses a chop. I'm wondering what added features he put in his rig to engance his tone. Which perhaps if it were an original B, he may not have chosen to alter. -----Original Message----- From: joe d <joedoria at hotmail.com> To: hammond at zeni.net Sent: Mon, 25 Jun 2007 7:37 pm Subject: Re: [HAM] Auger chop Even with bad phone-cam audio Auger's playing is still comin' thru. Nice! But really, how much would a chop like that run somebody? I mean,isn't there a ceiling one would hit before they stood back and said, "hey wait a minute, for lower than the ticket price I could fix/restore this thing and get a new set of roll or kari's/etc". >From: goffmac747 at aol.com >Reply-To: The Hammond Forum <hammond at zeni.net> >To: hammond at zeni.net >Subject: Re: [HAM] Auger chop >Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2007 05:51:33 -0400 > > > yes I know the video was horrible but the licks came through.
