BP-200 Mo-Town / Funky Ampeg

You can use this patch to get that deep bassy funk sound like James Jamerson or Donald Dunn. It’s great for covering almost any funk, R&B, MoTown or most rock songs from the 60’s-70’s.  It’s setup using a DI box or headphones, so depending on the amp and cab you are using, you will probably have to tweak the EQ on the BP-200 a bit to keep from overpowering your setup.

Chipotle’s Guacamole

Here’s a recipe from Chipotle Mexican Grill on how to make their signature guacamole, it’s a pretty standard guacamole recipe, but it does use a ton of Serrano chiles. Surprisingly, there’s no garlic, tomatoes or seasonings, so it’s a pretty basic recipe but still good none the less. For a complete chip and dip experience, serve guacamole with tortilla chips that have been tossed with lime juice and a sprinkling of salt, a signature at Chipotle Mexican Grill.

Iwatani intentionally avoided programming them with that purpose, since that would have resulted in Pac-Man zipping around the screen with four ghosts always right behind him.
