I like PR in the way I like Amyl and the Sniffers. Both bands couldn't be more different, but they are female-led and kick major wads of booty.

Pretty sure she's been at the music thing for more like 15 years. She was a child actress, and rather than get chewed up by Hollywood, she's been touring and recording with her band. The band has toured with the AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, Soundgarden (when Chris Cornell passed away), Halestorm, and others. They seem to have a very professional attitude, and keep going even when Taylor keeps getting bitten by spiders or other bugs and gets leg infections.

Ok, I got trade-in offers from Dave’s and CME. Gonna take it in to GC on Monday and see what they’ll give me on trade. CME quoted me a market range of $1500-$1700 and offered me a % of that (understandably so cuz they’ve got to take some time to list it, make some money on it, etc…) I’ll do $1,500 for the pair on a local pickup/meetup. If anyone wants the head I’ll do $800 plus shipping.

Man, between this one and bruce919’s kool blue Mirage…. Gotta get my Friedman sold first…

I guess these would be called dizygotic twins.

I am def a fan of newer gear that uses one or more tubes in a pedal. The Tone King preamp pedals are good examples. May I suggest one other that takes it a few steps beyond a simple OD pedal? This one has gone up in price, what with tariffs and all, but worth considering. Yeah, I reckon I would pass (I did) on the NOS tube upgrade! And used prices can sometimes be very reasonable. As opposed to the one tube OD pedal, it has three preamp tubes for cascading gain options. Use an external 2 button footswitch and you effectively have 3 channels. More or less a D type in a box.....Blackface style clean channel and then "Classic" and "Creamy" channels. Run direct to a power amp. OR integrate with a combo amp to add 3 channels. I use it with a board mounted power amp and minimal effects for a very versatile and portable gig ready package.

Last entry, I swear! Two MJ Series Charvel SoCal's that I Diablo-cized.

Get it now with the 10% discount.

Don't they have a 10% off promotion going? That'd be a pretty substantial savings.

Not quite twins but definitely siblings! 2012 Gibson 50th Anniversary Limited Editions SG and SG Diablo.

The sound quality is great!

OCDs are OK. But LovePedal OD11 always wins for me. And this morning LP posted a new Overdrive 11 - THE EXPERIENCE! $50 less and real tube drive. LOVEPEDAL – LovePedal Custom Shop

I presaved this on Spotify and it was finally made available (I'd say "dropped" but I'm not that hip) It sounds like they took their time with this one. Not sure who was behind the production, but I think it sounds great.

I met Matt at least once. He gave me a lesson DVD. I remember him as a nice person.

Regerts? I've had a few. I'd take these two back. Took some pics of these two around the same time. The black one is the best sounding stock Fender I've ever owned (Roadhouse from '97). The green one (allegedly Sherwood green but IMO way too dark for true Sherwood) is the worst sounding Fender I've ever owned. You've had those guitars that no matter what pickups are in it it still sounds terrible? Lastly, the current pair of partscasters. The Stretchocaster II on the right is about to be torn back down for Lake Placid blue and a new tort guard. It has become an absolute favorite (Fender Player II hollow mahogany body - the whole guitar weighs right at 6 lbs.) ChatGPT helped me visualize the LPB version: From: To:

It’s OK, just one of the many lies of Hulk Hogan.

Amendment enthusiastically accepted! I Googled and found this (Sustain Block Trem) that CME sold some time back:
