Love the photos - a Synergy X7, I believe.

I'd love to have a crack at one of these or, even better, a Synergy X20, one day.

How did it sound, plugged in, in this venue?

An old friend from Columbus, Ohio. Bill is good people. He's been pretty much Helix for his acoustics for awhile. Lakewood 6 strings. He also has a wood harp guitar built by Columbus luthier Tom Davis.

Bill was the first person I saw do serious multiple looping a LONG time ago.

He can also rock an electric.

He let me video him back in the day of the Harp guitar road trip.... came to my house to pick it up... he played it a bit and I asked if I could video this event... he said yes and the rest is a bit of my YouTube history...or something like that..I couldn't play it..sigh...

I used to play gigs with Bill’s first guitar teacher, Paul Hartley, in Columbus back in the mid nineties, and also knew Bill then. He is very talented, has a great sound, great feel, and is a very nice down-to-earth person.

I texted with Bill last night and sent him a link to this thread.

He showed me his next piece of gear.... I'm looking forward to hearing what he does with it.
