It is.

Bump

I remember that. I used to travel a little for a company. Two to a van installing fixtures in stores. We'd bring CDs to listen to for the ride. The guy I was generally with was extremely homophobic. So I'd flip it to one of those photos and put it back in the stack so he'd be sure to see it next time he wanted to listen to it. He'd get really mad. Good times. By the way, the four guys sitting naked on the couch watching was Maynard, Adam, Justin, and Danny. And if you tilted the jewel case they got up out of the couch. Not sure where they were heading. Maynard writes the lyrics. He has a complicated brain.

Are the frets in good shape??? They look to be taller than the " fretless wonders " of the originals... 🤔

They are kind of a mashup between a tele and a Les Paul, with the initial Tallys being more on the tele side (on steroids) and the Pros having more LP DNA. Both are 25.5" scale. The Tally has humbucker-sized Duncan "Double D" P-90-style pickups in them with a four way switch so you get bridge, parallel, neck, series. They both have V-shaped necks, though I believe on Pros have a softer profile (this isn't universal - I have some kind of custom order Tally that is a V but is much softer than my other Tally). I love them. I take two or three guitars with me to a gig depending on how long we plan to play and the stage size, but find I often just live on a Tally all night if it is one of them. One of mine has the Double Ds, the other has WCR Cherrybuckers in it. While I've never played a Tally Pro, I can verify that that they sound good with the P90s or humbuckers in them. They just sit really nicely in a mix live, filling things out or punching through as needed. I wouldn't hesitate at all to buy one for a good price to see what you think. They are great guitars and very much their own kind of thing. With the P90s, they will do things somewhat in the tele universe, though I find them to kind of be like the G&L ASATS with those jumbo MFDs. They aren't hifi like the G&Ls, but you have to dial them in a bit to countrify the sound, like those G&Ls. What they really want to do is rock and roll. Get some gain on them, and they rip. With humbuckers, they really sing and have a nice, warm character to them without being muddy. The body is chambered I believe, which may have something to do with that woodiness. I regretted selling the first one I had so much that I ended up with two when I finally had the money to correct the silliness of getting rid of mine. I've owned the better part of Hamer's post-80s lineup after they moved away from super strats (though I've owned a couple of those too), and for me, the Studios and Tallys are the two models that I have kept because I just enjoy them so much.

In the later years I prefer Christine McVee's songs.

see an I thought it was Top Dead Center

yeah.... the Fleet was a guitar band, with no girls.... that was the real band

I had the cd years ago that had the lenticular case and if you put the inside picture in it, the guy is sucking himself while everyone else watches. Weird shit just like the nude guy and nude fat lady on undertow. Really good album though. The lyrics to Aenema is some great writing.

Recently, I listen to a Bob Welch eta album. It was good, and yet was very stuck in the 70's. That time period when Christine McVie joined what had been a blues band feels a little odd, too.

Cuz they came late in the history and not a lot were made, esp the Tally Pro. If you search this site (or elsewhere on line) you should be able to get a lot of good info. (I owned several, but no longer have any of them).

The behringer x18 is great.you will have 6 monitor channels.The x32 is even better.

what is the story on the Talledega ,found a nice one for sale and can't find much info?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Fasho. Nobody gives Bob Welch ANY credit. Sad…

Settle down old timers. Rumours is still an old Fleetwood Mac album even though it's not even the real Fleetwood Mac.

Now for some useless information:

Because the phrase “as it were“ is in the subjunctive or conditional mood, not in the past tense. Moods are to tenses as modes are to scales…kinda sorta.

Yours is way nicer than mine… …with its locking tuners for which a previous owner drilled 6 additional holes, metal control knobs (now replaced), a badly re-cut nut long since replaced by my tech, and still more desecrations. And yet, strung with 9.5-44s, it plays like butter. If my mutt is fine then your purebred must be wonderful!

Why not?

Thanks for the info all. Went with the Yamaha MG12X 12, got a good price on an open box version via Reverb with a 45 day store warranty. Should fit the bill for this band, guitar, bass, keys and drums.

I'll be dragging my old Yamaha out with the old small rig to support my daughter singing at a wedding tomorrow, I'm excited! Yamaha is a great choice, - among many. Pawns shops and craigs or facebook marketplace should have something. I would add that you might want 16 claimed channels, because you might need them, and a 16 isn't going to cost much more or be much larger than a 12. Also some built in effects for a little reverb, along with sweepable midrange controls (if you want it to sound good), -sweepable mids would be a 'must have' on my list. I have the old Yamaha Mg16/6fx, those should be $200 ish used. Newer stuff probably have all sorts of awesome features, like bluetooth to send music in from your phone etc.
