"This is a the best sounding Ovation I ever heard. I have compared it to Martins, Gibsons, Fender acoustics you name it and this one sounds the best! For my personal taste anyways. It has Al Di Meola's signature preamp in it which are awesome! I used this one on the "Almost Unplugged" DVD (Europe) and a tour and bunch of gigs with my great sister Tone Norum (one of the best female singers in the world). So I just had to have one after hearing the album "Friday Night in San Francisco" in the '80s, (I've had a few) with the amazing Al Di Meola, John McLaughling and Paco de Lucía. Al and John used the Ovations and Paco (RIP) - being the greatest flamenco guitar player ever lived - used a nylon-string flamenco guitar."
The pedal is connected to audio loops 1-5 on the RJM switcher. The output on the RJM switcher feeds the Marshall and this is the DRY signal flow.
Everything is controlled with RJM Mastermind GT/10.

"My '80s rig from '84-'89. Unfortunately the original Hiwatt UK (Established Manufacturer) amp I used at the time (DR-103) got stolen when I was in the Don Dokken band, I went to rehearsal one day and it was gone along with a bunch of other gear. I sure miss that amp but this 50 Watt (DR-504) sounds great! Used by Matthias Jabs on two Scorpions albums in the mid '90s and it's also on my new album which will be out in February."
On John Norum's official website, a photo from his '80s rig shows the Mezzabarba Z35 guitar amplifier head prominently placed behind his Fender Stratocaster.
From John's Facebook post: "Mezzabarba Custom Amplification / Masotti Guitar Devices Z35 and Z101. The Z35 is a 45W amp that sounds fantastic and the Z101 is a 100W and it’s the loudest amp I've ever heard. No master volume or any other "fancy business", just one channel of pure tube power! The speakers are 70W Celestion Speakers V type."
