Joined: May 2008 Posts: 4996 Location: Phoenix AZ | Went to a guys house in Scottsdale yesterday. He has an 05 Collector and wanted to check out the iDEA pre-amp. He's in a wheel chair and I'm on crurches, so I drew the long straw and traveled to his house. Anyway, I had the iDEA loaded up with some of my own tracks and a few commercial MP3's and I'm getting ready to leave the house with the pre-amp in hand. And I wonder, "What the hell would happen if I just plugged headphones into this freaking thing, without actually putting it in a guitar?". So I DID and the damn thing plays just fine. A little more cumbursome than an ipod nano, but it works. Got in the car and plugged it into my cars AUX input and bingo, was able to listen to it on my car stereo while driving. I'm not sure what practical use this has, maybe if you want to listen to your backing tracks ad nasium on the way to a gig (sorta like cramming for an exam). Just another idea for your iDEA ...

Lots of trial and mostly error experience. No reaction to the bid on the K1111 this weekend, but she didn't believe that I called Al just to wish him a Merry Christmas. | ||
