[QUOTE=darylcrisp;6613213]totally acoustic(guitar, mandolin, open back banjo, weissenborn) until this past year, 60 yrs old, and it definitely puts you into being an outright beginner again, a whole different animal, but its so much fun!

may i suggest one pedal, this is all you need, Cornerstone Gladio(made in italy by a husband wife team, he designs, she builds'm). if you have the coin, grab a Fender Deluxe Reverb Tonemaster amp. You are done. You have enough now.

go play.............

Daryl,

Thanks so much for the recommendations! I think pedals and such are kind of far away for me at the moment. I am keeping it simple and light. Bought the Yamaha THR30II amp. I like the desktop amp idea and it sounded best to me. I’m never going to gig, and having the retired hubster at home makes me think the desktop idea is the best solution for my needs. I’ll eventually get the Line 6 transmitter and I’ll be totally cable-less. Yay!
