Hendrix really was a genius and it is pretty cool to see his legacy in units like this... Anyway, my bet is you pull some amazing sounds from that board!
Ya, Hendrix really was a genius! He was one of the first to embrace a lot of effects. He is also my favorite guitar player and biggest influence, so ya I try to keep the legacy going in ways that I can
and thanks, the board really is capable of some cool tones. I use the Mini Jimi for Black Keys/Gary Clark Jr. and of course Jimi tones, works great for all that. The Modfactor does a lot for me chorus for '90's grunge and the '80s song or 2 my band covers, leslie stuff for when I cover organ parts, phaser on a song or two as well. I could (and would like to) use it more, but my band just doesn't play much effect heavy music, but it works great. The Ring Thing just got added in place of my HOG (still have the HOG, it is great but MASSIVE), I'm gonna be using it for mild pitch shifts, maybe some trem/vibe tones, it does a lot, I just need to figure out how I want to use it with this band (I've owned it for a few years and have some cool presets stored from an older band). The Sonic Titan is my main distortion, it sounds good, low noise, I like it, I do wanna add a Model H and/or Dyna Red (I have a Dyna Red Hot on my practice PT-Mini board) for a different flavor of dirt. The Honey covers lower gain stuff like Black Crowes, Georgia Satellite, John Cougar Mellencamp that we play, and the Timmy gets stacked with it for more gain (works GREAT for this, love the combo). The Drag'n'Fly is my main heavy gain lead fuzz. Decimator is always on as is the Cleanness (set to slight gain and treble boost and pretty decent mid boost). Flint is mainly set to spring though I do use the plate and 80's, all are great.

If someone wants to send me a Captain Coconut, I would be happy to do a comparison of the two
