I'd like to hear "#6. Tritone interval, using pedal to fade between 
regular and hex distortion" with the hex part where each string goes 
through its own speaker!  Six channel guitar must rule!  Each string 
through its own Marshall stack!!!  (Yikes.)

I knew that someone would beat me to market on that idea!  Imagine each 
string feeding its own looper!  :)
