I love it when companies use the term 'carefully curated'. It implies they agonised over decisions, when in reality they figured out just how they could cover some bases and get away with charging a fortune.

Isn't this the same guy who used a Kemper for awhile "in secret"

Or am I getting people mixed up

“when the map begins to precede the territory”

The map never was the territory, it’s irrelevant IMO, alas-

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far” -Lovecraft

-ensures we’ll have tube vs solid state debates until there are no more guitarists left that have played through a tube amp.

There's simply no way John Mayer couldn't tell the difference between his real Dumble and a plugin, unless the bags of money were being pressed against his ears.

Shove a couple of $100 bills in my ears and I won't be able to tell the difference between a Blackstar Fly and a Dual Rec

So your plugin-based side project isn't selling as much as you'd like...

 

[newholland]

does it ever seem to anyone else that noone ever says anything worth hearing anymore and that everything is bullshit marketing to people dumb enough to believe it, or is it just me?

Look, i like JHS. I really do.

But this is an ad copy.

I liked the read and I agree with pretty much all of his points. I just never needed jhs or John mayers approval first, we’ve already been immersed in this digital takeover age for 10+ years (or more).

I don’t mind what he does at all, but he has a whole swathe of guitarists in the palm of his hand who gobble up what he puts out. He’s doing exactly the right thing, and fair play to him.

 

[HotRats]

I don't think this plug-in release is a turning point in history but I agree with the things JHS wrote and enjoyed the reading.
He probably just used this NDSP release to share his thought about the matter.

I don’t disagree with the first part, but there is no way NDSP is paying him enough for it to be meaningful to John.

It is a little like grandad is discovering that rubber johnny's exist, isn't it...
