  1. Mike, Take care of yourself as a top priority. Sending positive vibes. Dan
  2. BingBong did a live recording with a limited audience in 2019, both audio and video. It took us a while to finish the recordings. Some friends rent rehearsal warehouse space and they have a collaborative studio. We hired the sound engineer from the studio and brought in a video team. The landlord limited us to 25 guests (he thought we were younger than 50ish?!?!?). I cowrote Catch My Breath with a bandmate around 1990 and the song was brought back to life with my current band a couple years ago. It's a nice change from our powerpop tempo'd music in a live set and has received nice comments from listeners. I chose this song because it's one where our singer doesn't play guitar... it's all Shishkov 0059 with Charlotte at the bridge. I'm playing through a Carr Hammerhead. The effects are a Barber Half Gainer & Keeley Red Dirt OD, Strymon El Capistan delay, and I hit the Boss Harmonizer set to detune a couple times. Brian's drums are a recovered '64 Rogers kit and Julie is playing a Teye bass through a house bass amp. I don't have info on the mics or recording gear. It was a fun show and we ended up with 9 songs; we're releasing a video here and there via our email & FB page during the live music shutdown (C19). We'll probably do a CD run at some point. Link to BingBong.
  3. I've slowly been pawn shopping for components around my phonograph... receiver... and today the speakers. 1st spin? The Pretenders first album. Damn that's a great bunch of tunes. 1st tune? Kid. What a great solo.
  4. Wowza. That's all I can say.
  5. ^^^ Beautiful top. Wowza!
  6. In the winter I run Aprilaire at the max plus a humidifier on low 24/7. I still do not attain a solid 40%. That's WI.
  7. I've never seen RUSH before and we bought some nose bleed seats in Chicago. Hopefully we'll enjoy the ambience.
  8. Congrats on the wait! Natural relic. I love it.
  9. The guardian has double neck support and a padded lid. Quite nice for aftermarket.
  10. I am super happy with my Gaurdian case. And the vintage case stays at home! http://www.hamerfanclub.com/forums/topic/67774-guardian-case-sunburst-phantom-custom/?fromsearch=1
  11. I've been on 11's for 15 years. Now when I play something with 9's or 10's, I over compensate my bends.
  12. My two number ones are the '79 Sunburst and the '08 Tally Pro. '79 photo by Murkat.
  13. Be careful what you wish for... I recently placed a WTB ad for a red Sunburst and here's what I got... A 1979 dot and a 1980 b/c from two very respectable HFC members. My wife said, do you really need two red ones?
  14. Has anyone tried this case? http://elderly.com/accessories/items/GCLTD-LPJR.htm
  15. Todde, My Sunburst fits perfectly in my Gibson Les Paul Jr doublecut case from 2011. Also has the double neck support. The Gibson could be covered with a sticker. TKL has a special case for the Junior. I have not witnessed that fit. Dan
  16. Thanks for the link! It always amazes me how many people spell hammer with one M, which places them on a Hamer search.
  17. Good like life. Says it all.
