Nice to see those Epifani rigs and cool that Nick came to your meeting. It could be great if anyone could tell a bit about different between the PS and the UL rig.
-Christian | The ps are made out of birch I believe, whereas the ULs are made out of italian poplar. The PS's are a bit heavier because of this. They are also tuned a bit lower, more like the older NYC series. They have such a phat bottom, with a little less of that high end zing found in the ULs, but its still there. The drivers are also a bit different. The PS series really is amazing though, especially the 12" stack. It puts out great bottom for two small cabs. |

Ohhh sorry 'bout that Kevin...we were trying to be discrete as to not interrupt the Epifani discussion. I wanted to stay and listen to that as well, but we really had to split.
Let's get some brews in bklyn soon!!
