Yamaha DG-Stomp primarily, mostly on the clean settings.

I used my Roland GP-100 at the Santa Cruz Y2K2 Loopfest because I decided I
wanted to reduce the number of items at my feet. It's a little long in the
tooth, but it's got pretty much the full range of Roland COSM modelling and
has some useful options for signal routing, a fairly rich complement of
effects, and even some dual amplifier capabilities. (Fripp still uses one 
as
of last report...)

(The GP-100 is more or less for sale since floor space usually isn't a
problem, I've got a mixer, I've got other effects boxes, and the DG Stomp
and my Klein like each other. I almost sold the GP-100 to someone on the
list a month ago, but he suddenly decided to pay his credit card bills. My
standard rate when selling is Prepal - 10% discount for loopers. A month
ago, that worked out to $284 + shipping.)

As for other amps...

My chief comment about the Vetta was that it was REALLY LOUD. The UI was
nice.

I want to try the zenAmp.

I'm interested in Gary's comments in praise of the AG Stomp. I played with
one recently at Guitar Center and I was annoyed at the sound of all of the
distant miked models. It sounded like I was playing in a very hard, small
room. (This was while wearing headphones to audition it.) I'd like to know
what I should be expecting out of the AG Stomp.
