Speaking of PRS, I'm kinda really liking their new "Mira". Hmmmn.

The Mira looks very cool. I'd seriously want one if my Standard 24 wasn't basically the exact same guitar only with a trem and different pickups.

I play mostly funk, mellow chords, with clean sound, and a hint of reverb.
I was on a budget, and I needed some stuff fast, so I bought a Crate Stack amp (can't remember the reference) and a Boss GT-8 pedal (I know, what the fuck was I thinking).
Right about now, I'm fed up with that crap, and I -know- I'm not taking advantage of my Custom shop PU's. Also, I don't use 1/20th of the stuff the GT-8 has.
So, what amps, effect pedals do you recommend?
I was thinking a Fender Twin Reverb, and a Boss Delay pedal, and perhaps a Ibanez Tube Screamer for the distortion here and there (and of course a Boss Chromatic Tuner).
Down the road, I wanted to get a hollowbody guitar, so I was thinking on acquiring a Gibson ES-335, preferrably vintage, if I can afford it.
Whatcha guys think?

I say Fender are probably a good idea, possibly Orange amps as well. Aside from that all I can do is say go and play some damn amps.

A truly vintage 335 costs more than a decent car, these days.

Tell me about it. Selling my car for that guitar crossed my mind more than once haha. Too bad I can't ride my vintage Gibson to college heh.
P.S.: omgwhutufux hi Jeph, recent poster, been reading your comic since... well, strip 50 or so. Love it :D

My friend managed to pick up an older Epiphone ES-335 for about $250. It's fairly beat to shit but we love it because it has a gorgeous bigsby.
