The double

There are FX units out there capable of producing a doubling effect where the output generated gets doubled either in unison or in actave displacement. Some of us get inspired to play by hearing such technolgy in use. I was moved to experiment on this doubling effect by plugging my hollow-bodied Ibanez AF105 into my Pocket POD. The driven output volume was tweaked to match the guitar's inherent acoustic volume; this effect alone is enough to trigger some ideas & make me play differently in terms of technique & notes selection.
