Those NAMM show displays have to go somewhere if they are not going to be used every year. That sucker could go in my house. We have all seen SVT cabs run horizontally somewhere. I have a wall long enough to put the giant cab somewhere. Heck yeah! I need to contact Ampeg.

Pickguard holes are already there. Cover the hole. If you are really worried about it, a competent repairman can route square edges on the hole, put in some wood, and reroute for a pickup. The cost of refinishing the guitar is where your real expense will be. If you cannot find a pickguard you can always use a Vince Neil sticker.

Don't you just hate it when a company runs out of good ideas for what makes a guitar cool? -
Help please! Hamer Cruisebass/UK
Steve Haynie replied to planetgaffnet's question in Ask the HFC Experts
I traced a Cruise Bass pickguard years ago onto a thin piece of plastic. There might be a point missing and some warpage that will make it imperfect. If no one comes up with something for you send me a private message. For the record, I agree that you should leave your Cruise Bass as it is. -

What the hell, Dean?!?!? (Not Dean Town)

Two mortgages on the same assets is not a good thing. What was going wrong internally? The Luna line should have seen an upswing during the COVID lockdowns. -
Dana Strum has his stuff together.

Who was in Vince's band this year? He hires good players. Steve Stevens has toured with him.

That has nothing to do with age. It is not be appealing to many younger people. Camping can be cool for some people, but I have seen trashed campsites in the state parks when I have gone kayaking. There are no bands playing when they do that.

Photo mystery RE Peter Buck

Yup. Finger. -
I remember Dave tossing his Standards straight up what seemed like twenty feet above his head, and he always caught his guitar. Bob Huckaba was a roadie who was nice enough to let a small group of us teenage fans go into an equipment truck where he opened the case with the hatchet shaped guitar in it. Then there was the Flying P, a pointy guitar with a carved top and a little marquetry banner on the top. Dave had some cool guitars.

Hey, man! No cutting in line!

Something a little annoying has been later singers in Molly Hatchet having a rough voice trying to sound like Danny Joe Brown. The roughness was not what DJB's singing was about. There was no point in trying to have the DJB growl. Danny Joe was a young guy who was relating stories and feelings through a microphone, which he did with his feel and personality. That was all that was required. When Jimmy Farrar came in he had a different voice. It worked. Slade replaced Noddy Holder with someone screaming with a gravely voice. What made Noddy a great singer was the feeling he put in the songs. Kevin Dubrow had a different voice that worked with Slade songs. The singer in the last Slade video I saw was more like a parody of Noddy.

Greg Kihn?

Molly Hatchet was one of my favorites from the beginning. Last week the official band played within seven miles of my house, but I could not bear to see them. Instead of three guitars playing harmonies, Molly Hatchet is now one guitar harmonizing with a keyboard. It is much better remembering the band the way it was intended as a guitar army.
