  1. After reading the description it makes one think you might catch something from playing that organ.
  2. Bill Kirchen plays one of his guitars. That is enough of an endorsement for me.
  3. I still want it. It can go with a Leslie cabinet and a grand piano from gig to gig. A few SVT cabs need to be there, too.
  4. The people at the Mojotone factory are very friendly. The amp class would be fun.
  5. That was last year. I had gotten some signed CD's through his website not too long before that. When John Mayall did a show in his early 80's he was a fireball on stage. At 86 he decided to cut back on shows outside of California.
  6. When I was on a trip to Kentucky Roy gave me a tour of RS. He was that proud papa like Sterling Ball.
  7. I would want to try it out before you trash it. That Standard might be a really nice guitar considering that it is a Hamer likely made by Mike Shishkov.
  8. That Standard was up for auction at String Tree earlier this year. We discussed it.
  9. The presale password is PARADISE. That is a solo career song reference.
  10. All of the above... Paring down. Home players do not need large amps. Some guys are playing out less. That does not apply to everybody, but a significant number of us will be making decisions on what to keep more and more over the next decade.
  11. The original Alice Cooper group is one of my all time favorite bands. For many years the top three have been KISS, Rush, and Alice Cooper.
  12. I like the idea of a thumb rest built in the pickup surround, especially above the strings. What was Fender thinking when they put a rest below the strings? Was someone supposed to hook their fingers under it and play with their thumb?
  13. A drummer who "overplayed" during a Who concert...? Hmmm... Nope. I cannot recall anyone having done that before.
  14. I regret selling my 4001 thirty plus years ago. The truss rods looked like something was wrong, and no one knew how to repair it. Truss rod adjustments on those older Rickenbacker basses was entirely different from any other bass or guitar. I like the center stripe in the wood. They disappeared for a while.
  15. Judas Priest tickets have been going up and up in the past four years. Yesterday, friends and I got tickets for either Charlotte or Atlanta, but no one can afford both shows anymore. Playing with a calculator I figured out that the sliding fee that Ticketbastard/Live Nation slaps on is 23.5%. Nearly a fourth of the ticket price is added on even though it costs nothing more to process the sale of a cheap ticket or an expensive ticket.
  16. No roller bridge saddles? Hmmm...
  17. Roy Clark owned a Porsche or two. His favorite car was his Rolls Royce. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/leake-auction-company-to-sell-hee-haw-host-roy-clarks-personal-car-collection-without-reserve-300858423.html
  18. I have seen Queensrÿche ten times since 1989. They have always played as tight as the album recordings. Both Geoff Tate and Todd La Torre talk to their audiences with respect. Geoff Tate assembled bands that have been just as tight. You either love their music or you do not. If you do, every show is a good show.
  19. What are the significant differences between a T-62 and a Daytona?
