I hate the maple top but I don't care, this thing is so easy to play, I can play it for hours and that what matters the most to me.
By the way it's a thin synthetic bowl in the back like the Ovation.
As you can guess not much sound when it's unplugged ,though not bad after a few mods I already did.
Plugged it sounds great.

No, I got it from a tiny local store for FREE..... well kinda, I traded some old equipment for it that was sitting in my closet for years.

I was looking for Ovations for two months, most of them sound great but killer on my gentle fingers.
Messing with action on them is not easy.
This guitar was just perfect out of the box.

taste I guess cause that's how I felt about the ovation...the funny thing is for years I use to put down Ovations and swore I'd never own one...

So, I listened to all of the compiled demo riffs today for AT2. Very, very nice. Good variety. There's still a million other things you can do with it too but I think you'll get an idea. They'll be on line in a matter of a few days. They're "naked", so no accompanying instruments and definitely no additional processing or mastering. Straight up AmpliTube 2!

Once they are up that officially breaks the ice there and I will share some stuff too where I have time. Although I get dragged around here and there during the holidays (would love to be able to spend some time making music! Maybe I will if I am lucky).

Just giving you a head's up like I do. Check on www.amplitube.com within the next few days and you'll see it/hear it. I think there will be some info on what was used in the rig for each patch. Actually, I think I even learned a few tricks just from reading that and listening to some of the demos. The dual rig stuff sounded sweet and the liquidy effects were also nice. You know, AT2 isn't even just for guitars really... it would be nice on a lot of things. As a keyboard player myself I tend to use guitar stomp boxes on my keys for a more raw sound with character. Of course, so do John Paul Jones, Tony Banks and a lot of other keyboardists.

Hourra for Squids!!

Thanks a lot for keeping us updated.

Let's hope that the demos will REALLY be online next week

I guess a "few days" is shorter than "soon" :/
