PRS HX name change, ironic?

Jonathanthomas83

Looks like they've renamed the HX line to HDRX, presumably due to a demand from Line 6? I'm speculating, of course. But it'd be ironic, given all likelihood there's an Archon model in their HX Stomp!

Pointless discussion, sorry, just tickled me, if that is indeed the case.

Maybe HX wasn't blatant enough to suggest the Hendrix connection.
Probably couldn't come right out and call it the Hendrix amp to avoid paying Janie Hendrix loadsa money.

True enough, my cinicism kicks in quite promptly with these things.

These amps have both a Hendrix 'signature' and Authentic Hendrix logo on the back. I'm pretty sure Janie will be getting her cut.

HRDX? Fender will sue them now…

I'm going to sound like a curmudgeon, but for me, the use of 'txt spk' is a bit of a turn off!
The fact I can't afford it is also a factor

I stand corrected.
