    I read your OP. And most reply’s. Missed that you got one. Still would recommend a Kingsley.

    didn't like at all.

    On the original subject, J Rockett "The Dude V2" is the best I've tried.

    And for those interested in the Dude, v2 is the same circuit as V1: the only change that was made was the value of the volume pot, so v2 has a more gradual taper; v1 went from "zero to hero" very quickly, v2 is much more controllable. But the tones are the same.

    oddly enough, when I got the V1 version, I hated it because of that and I contacted J Rockett and asked if they could lower the gain or change the value of the pot and they said "NO"...

    Well, that IS interesting... I guess he figured it out! Must have had something to do with the PCB construction, I guess? Making it too difficult to change the pot?

    or ignoring the problem because he didn't feel like changing the layout or doing a custom, one-off mod...

    That's funny. I wrote to Fishman to complain about the efx controls layout and options on the original Loudbox series (was basically useless) and offered in detail a more flexible and usable layout. They never answered. When they came out with the 2nd (current) version, they're using the exact layout I suggested.

    I've thought this question over a great deal, and I've come to the conclusion that an SUV or a van would probably be the the best drive to play the fusion music. You would probably need a larger car than a compact to be able to fit the larger amp and all the pedals that you'd need to play that type of music...

    No, you don't have to thank me; helping people out is just my thing...

    You would be surprised how much stuff I could stuff in my Subaru Justy. I miss that little three-cylinder econobox.
    On the other hand, at my advanced age, the Rav4 is just the ticket. At least it has a CD player.*
    So, yeah, an SUV it is!

    * The Justy did have a swell cassette player.
