Ya'll are making me rethink this. But motorcycle season is upon us.

Playing this thru my Lead 12 Ministack home rig. A little less saturated/compressed than the PurplePlexi+Boost, still nailing a cranked Marshall tone. The separate bass/tone controls help to keep it from getting muddy. Looking forward to ripping this thru a real tube amp this weekend.

It didn't work when I got it, but with the help of fellow HFC'rs everything is working great now. I alway's wanted a 3 Hole DuoTone! Now I have one!! And it's beautiful!!

All I know is that buying this guitar is cheaper than orthopedic surgery and traction, and lots more fun than road rash. Whoever buys this guitar will be very happy IMO.

Yes definitely crazy. And not as young, fleixble, fit or skilled like those professional riders.

Oh you're crazy. Watched the Moto GP this past weekend and them fuckers are nuts. Cool as hell but crazier than a pet coon.

But I like tipping the bike over! With enough speed and proper loading of the tires it’s not usually a problem.

Are you turning up the vibrator on your wheelchair again???

I am not a Rush fan. But the first album is by far my fave and it just rocks. 1st album, side 1, cut 1…hell yes! Miles played it fantastically and I saw her with Jeff Beck as well. She will tear the roof off the sucker on this tour. I wish they were coming to KC. They look like they are enjoying just rocking out and that is contagious.

So yer sayin the holier the better?

I can definitely attest to that. Not to mention physical therapy.

You probably never tipped over on a guitar. Well, maybe.

When I was selling off a lot of basses, I got my boxes, giant bubble wrap roll and huge bag of peanuts from Uline. There's a shipping freight charge for the larger stuff, but I picked up my supplies at the "local" warehouse which saved a lot.

I've thought this is the only JJ cover that sounds close to Janis:

For years I joked that there were a million guys who could play just like Eddie Van Halen, but they could not play anything new until Van Halen put out another album.

Uline for boxes and bubble wrap

I never started an official post here. https://reverb.com/item/93657352-hamer-artist-custom-2000 No longer for sale plus shipping to supporting known HFC members. thanks

URGENT UPDATE: Just read this about FedEx shipping guitars. Back to our original programming... As many of you have seen, I've been selling off a bunch of gear... guitars, amps, pedals etc. And, I have found out some really interesting tid-bits on shipping. There seems to be more ways to ship gear than ever. Beside the standard USPS, UPS, FedEx etc. I've found some great discounts at other places. It also seems the box and sizes sometimes makes one shipping service better than others. What I mean is, you just have to check all of them to see which ones gives the best price for a particular box/weight. It's kinda' a pain-in-the-ass to enter all the info multiple times, but I'm retired, I have plenty of time - haha. But, it can save you a LOT of money on big items. OK, let's not get into a flame-war over which company is safer than another. It's all a crap-shoot, they all can damage stuff. Over the years, I haven't found one to be the 'Best' to ship. That's why I over pack and bubble-wrap the crap out of everything and make sure there is plenty of room around the item as to not let something hit the box and still get to the gear. Loosen strings, take off switch-tips, secure guitars in cases, pull tubes and wrap separately when possible, put paper under the strings as to not let the strings vibrate and possibly put indentations on frets etc. Double box guitars with gig bags. With all that, damage can still happen. Back to shipping... There are the big 3. UPS, FedEx, USPS (Yeah, there is also DHL) Also, when selling on Reverb or Ebay, they offer discounted shipping if you use them. And, can provide 'safe shipping' coverage, which can be good. (I usually have all my gear insured by Heritage Insurance, so I have that to rely on. I have only had to use them once in 20 years and they were great.) But, I've found much better shipping prices outside of Reverb and Ebay. Then, there are some other outside companies that you should check: PirateShip.com and Paypal. Yeah, Paypal offers discounted shipping, even if you didn't use them for the sale. Their prices have been EXCEPTIONALLY good!!! Sometimes the best I have found on big items. Also, always remember to check for discount codes, especially when using UPS, I have found some really good, 20-25% discount codes on the webbernets. Again, its weird, one shipper might offer a better price for large items or small boxes vs another, you just have do some legwork to find out. Lately, I've found big items like guitar and amps, Paypal Shipping or UPS with discounts, seem to have the best prices. Pedals or small stuff, Reverb shipping or USPS is quick and easy. Middle size stuff, like rack gear is all over the place. Hope this helps! ernie P.S. If you guys know of any other shipping options, please post them. Let's keep this going to save us all some moolah!

Gorgeous, and so cheap!

Looking forward to the backline photos. 😄

If this isn't fake, it should be Paul Bielatowicz is with The Return of Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Carl Palmer. · Excited to be unveiling my Moogatowicz™ triple neck signature model this tour. Analogue warmth meets physical discomfort!

Well, he does hit a wrong note @ 2:32

My favorite part was Axl (rather, the absence of Axl), followed closely with what I have to assume is him pushing out a turd he's been working on for a week or so. But seriously, the harmonics in the intro were really cool. Incredible chops!

The technical ability of some of these newer guitar players is amazing!.. Thanks for sharing👍

Thanks, Jake. Serves my home needs well. Once I rewire the, “jam space board”, it will contain, thusly; VoidooLabs Dingbat small board Pedal Power 2Plus Budda Bud-wha Dingus box Peterson mini tuner SoloDallas Storm MXR Univibe Boss DD-8 LP JTM Eleven Axess Buffer (mounted underneath) I love the Boss DD series. I have two Analogman versions, but the DD-8 has all those features and more. The, “trails”, function makes transitioning from lead boost to normal sound very full. I’ll post pics of this simple, yet effective, board shortly.

Janis covered it herself. The original recording was by Aretha Franklin's sister, in 1967.

^- this. The fact this guitar is still here is nuts.

They're in DC on 5/27.

Or any other Joplin song for that matter... I absolutely LOVE this song and everything about it~

Ooh! yes! the button with the Hamer logo should pop right into the Schaller. Have you watched any of the youtube vids about removing that button using a bit of heat and a magnet?

I believe all are 14". For sure Daytonas, which is why they are superior to Strats.

1. If she's intent on crowding that particular mic, it needs a high pass filter. A 58 would likely have worked better. 2. I liked her rendition, but I think her voice would be more suited to different material. Maybe something from the Amy Winehouse catalog - more contralto-ish. We're so used to Joplin's version it's difficult for anyone to make their mark with that particular song. [/opinion]

I hope somebody buys this SOON. Damn that's hard to resist.

Of course I expect her to cover Peart's drumming. This is why she was hired. I saw her with Jeff Beck. Trust me, she is more than capable of playing any Rush song.

No, the whole point is to bang the drummer without the other members knowing it 🤷

Mandatory price would be $1650

Oh, what an insult!!!

Perfect! Strange the different fourth pot-color of my 95-Model... 🤔

No wiring plan here but some more pictures, from a 95er: 5 43150:

I'll go with the Dictators' cover of "Search and Destroy" on Manifest Destiny. Methinks it had canned crowd noise and the guitar solo ain't long but 50 years ago it burned into my brain like a laser.

And the board;

Aw, crap. One of my all-time faves. Dictators: Too ahead of their time Manowar: Talk about commitment to a bit! Killer metal with a stupidly OTT image. MWK: "If ya lost some weight, ya might get LAID!" Wisdom for the ages. RIP, Ross.

Without a doubt! It’s of little news to most people here that I’m a big ol’ TVJ fan, and although I don’t have an application for one of these boys just yet, no doubt I will.

That is not expensive…

I just emailed the worst song ever known to man. Let it be heard on the HFC. Lock up your children.

Hi Michael, maybe I can help you in your search for a 79 Sunburst. At the moment I have six and I want to downsize a bit. Maybe there is something for you and we will come to an agreement... Greetings from Frankfurt to beautiful Vienna Markus

Turns out my friend Karsten is thinking of selling his. It's a red Special from 1981 or 1982 I think. I'll pm you his contact details. He's in Dusseldorf, Germany.
