    Had no idea about 'how to post' tabs or whatnot. I will have try to remember that for the future.

    Not sure of having it scroll like that is easier or not. Nor am I sure I like that my post was edited. I'd probably have liked to have been told before it was done... But it is what it is.
  2. There's no worries, mate! I just edited it and told you so everyone could learn how to do it Scrolling down inside a preformatted box is less convenient, I know, but if we don't limit the lenght of our posts, we end up with tremendously long forum pages which are waaay more unconvenient.

    You can edit it again if you're so offended, no problem. It was just an ilustrative way of how to do it.
  3. Hey guys!
    I've been using the ZT Lunchbox for a month or two now, and really loving it. I remember when I mentioned it here some people sounded intersted, so I decided to record a quick clip to demo it for you guys that might be interested in buying this kick-ass little amp. It's definitely worth the money!

    I think we can all meet on common ground here when it comes to U2 tone, and when you can get a decent Edge tone you can get a decent tone for the kind of music that seems to be generally liked around here. So I recorded the demo using U2 songs. Forgive the mistakes, I haven't practised these songs in a while, I've mainly been busy writing/practising songs for my own band!

    Hope you guys like it,

    Alex

    For those interested, signal path was:

    Strat -> M13 -> ZT Lunchbox

    simple as that!

    Is there an amp mod on the M13? Or are you just using a delay setting? For instance, even if I'm playing through a regular Fender-90 amp, I can set my Digitech box to make it sound like I'm playing through a tweed. Anything like that going on, or is it pure lunchbox?

    It's a beautiful tone, I'm amazed
  5. No amp sims (personally I don't like them anyway!) It's all pure ZT Lunchbox. Only effects from the M13 here were mod delays, tube screamer sim, a compressor, and a wah for The Fly.

    and Thanks!

    I don't care for them either, but occasionally it helps and you can get some killer effects out of them. Good to know though...that seems to be a nifty little box...
  7. ZT LUnchbox is great.

    Here's some U2 clips that Mick from 'The Unforgettable Fire' (New York) tribute made:

    (Entire) "Somtimes You Can't Make It..."


    Snippet of "Walk On"


    Snippet of "Bad"



    And for fun... Mick playing "New Years Day" piano on iPad.
  8. You already posted the iPad and the Walk On things some time ago... But always fun to watch that again. Seriously, that lunchbox is the most awesome thing I ever heard in terms of [sound produced / size of the gizmo], it's just.... astonishing.
  9. Hey guys!
    I was wondering, the bottleneck Edge uses since the Vertigo tour..
    Can you buy these anywhere?
    Oh yeah, I mean the one that Dalles custom-made for him.. (made to slide one string)
    Sorry if anyone already asked this somewhere between this and the other 261 pages..
    But I can't really find this little thing anywhere in the EU.. (Or Holland, where I live..)

    I have a slide that's about a third of the size of a regular slide, but it's still a bit bigger than the 1-string one Edge had made. I think Dallas had it "cut" for him, so you'd probably have to do the same.
  12. Yeh cutting a regular slide should do the trick, I've never seen one for sale Hacksaw and a filer and you'll be grand
