Members Weatherbox Posted August 11, 2005 Members Share Posted August 11, 2005 I have a Menatone Fish Factory, which is a combined Snapper and BLue. The Snapper side is my #1 dirt tone for live use where it just cuts through perfectly - and it sounds great into the brilliant channel of my AC30, something unusual for sure. For recording I tend to go with smoother sounding pedals boosting amps for low/medium gain tones rather than use the Menatone, but it has been a godsend for live work.

Members telepaul Posted August 12, 2005 Members Share Posted August 12, 2005 It's all subjective....I found both the Baby Blue and Dyna Red to be vanilla sounding and overpriced.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mentoneman Posted August 12, 2005 Members Share Posted August 12, 2005 the menatone JAC compressor is outstanding, and i'd have one if the barber tone press wasn't almost as good and half the price. phil i visited your website and it looks like a great studio.i run sound for Calvary Redlands.would you happen to know rick thompson? peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 phil i visited your website and it looks like a great studio. Thank you. I run sound for Calvary Redlands. Cool! I have a couple of friends who used to attend there... I'm not sure if they still do or not, but I think they do. Do you know Brad and Laura Bischoff? Brad's a GREAT guitarist, and they're "good people". would you happen to know rick thompson? I wouldn't say I "know" him, but I certainly know who he is. Thompson Engineering? Sweet Comfort Band? Rick used to have a studio here in Riverside, but I don't know if he's still got that up and running or not. I've met him once or twice, but it's been years, and I doubt he'd remember me, although he and I have some mutual friends / aquaintances... Paul Dexter being one. Paul also used to have a studio out here, but he's out by the beach now. He also used to (might still) do tour manager / FOH for Bryan Duncan, as well as doing recording for other people, and being in a fairly successful CCM band called "Mayfair Laundry" at one point. Last time I talked to Paul, he was doing a lot of post work for movies and so forth... I noticed you're just over in Mentone. If you'd like to come by sometime for a visit, feel free to give me a holler. You can PM me or use one of the numbers on my websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
