I picked up a Boss MS-3 from Andertons to build a new fly rig, based around my BluGuitar Amp1 and an Xotic SL Drive, with an EHX Cockfight Plus (best pedal name EVER! ).
The KPA with Remote and a Mission EP1-KP was just killing my back and shoulders in the long queues at security. Manchester airport, where I'm frequently flying to and from, has the worst and longest queues I've experienced, apart from immigration at JFK, lol. Once when flying back with a massive hangover the day after a show, I had to stand and wait in that queue for over an hour. Ridiculous. Plus, the switches on the Remote are just too many and too close together for my massive feet, when playing with my UK band, where there are a lot of fast sound changes. So, I'm going light and simple on these next two gigs. Fingers crossed.
First impressions : impressive sound, much better than I was expecting, though there is a slight gap in the audio when switching patches. Not enough to really do my head in, unlike the gap when changing channels or engaging the boost on the Amp1 (they really should prioritise upgrading that. I use my Amp1 as a single channel clean platform because of it).
