I recently picked up a Sarno Black Box and gigged with it last night with Ronnie Penque of NRPS. It sounded great! The best I can describe is that it gave me a silky smooth glassy sound, even at higher volumes, something I have found difficult to achieve.

My rig was: guitar -> Sarno Black Box -> custom built external vintage Ibanez pre-amp/EQ -> Roland JC77 (2x10 solidstate amp).

So, a double thumbs up from a 'Bobby' in the crowd.

I would like to hear some of that Ronnie Is a great player!

Unfortunately, it wasn't recorded. There was some very cool jamming in the 2nd set, including a Dark Star and Don't Let Go which melted into a nice spacey jam which pleased everyone.

It was fun.

everyone loves a good space haha Dan JR

Sweet! Thanks for the kind words on the Black Box. Transistor rigs love to have a little bit of real tube injected in there.
