  1. Well, you certainly have great amps. The Deluxe reverb clone should sound great with it as far as clarity, unless you really have it cranked. I had a '62 reissuethat i put 57's in, and it sounded great. I also had a 2010 Standard with a set of Duncan 59's that sounded really good. Now I'm using my P90 SG's all the time and playing my Hamer 25th anniversary for my mahogany humbucker sounds. I also switched to 9's after years of playing 10's because my 66 year old hands are tired. That actually had a pleasing effect on my clean tone. I have a '68 Drip Edge Deluxe Reverb, and a killer 70's Princeton. The both sounded great with all my SG's. Good luck on the quest!
  2. Agree 100%! The '83 show with Snowy was probably the best rock show that I ever saw. Scott was on a stool with a broken leg. I was jammed against the stage right in front of him, and just to the side of Phil. Unreal memory. Agora Ballroom in Atlanta. Chinatown Tour I believe..
  3. Saw Lizzy live many times. Scott always delivered! He could hang with anyone on the stage with him. Great player, great tone. A true rock guitarist!
  4. Great stuff, Dana! Not only the playing, but killer vocals too! Rock On!
  5. Have you played with the individual pole pieces, Saul? Raising and lowering the whole pickup can help, but pole piece adjustment can make a big difference. Try lowering the pickup and raising the pole pieces, then tilt the treble side up a bit. BTW, what strings and amp are you playing it through?
  6. Shane is the real deal... I have lots of great guitars and gear, but my mantra is, "I can suck equally on anything".... If i spent half as much time practicing as I do screwing around on the internet forums and screwing around with my gear, I'd still suck! So, that's why I love having the toys!! šŸ˜‰
  7. Thanks for this. I miss Sylvain. He was a good buddy. I used to work on his guitars..
  8. That looks like it came out of a 60's or 70's car, off of the heater or A/C control..
  9. Richrath was one of the finest rock guitar players ever. I was lucky yo see him a few times in his heyday. What a beast! Great tone, great playing, and great guitars! The early stuff still blows me away! ENJOY..
  10. Great news. Glad all went well! Rock On, Victor!
  11. Excellent score! You'll love that beauty! Enjoy!
  12. Glad you caught it. Prayers for your speedy recovery. Look forward to the next 40 + years to come!
  13. Seems like I saw that drummer in a movie a long time ago...
  14. Kind of sounds like Primus when they were in the fifth grade...
  15. I've seen those vids, and know a few people that knew him well. He seemed like a tortured genius from what they told me. But they all agreed he was a really good soul with other worldly talent.
  16. Yep! I used to see him at The Harvest Moon Saloon on Piedmont when he would do that. Great guy.
  17. I have often wondered how we never met. I used to own a store in Tucker called Too Many Guitars. I'm pretty much retired, but I still help my old buddies with repairs, mostly set ups, electronics and such. Bob is a monster player, Glenn taught him how to play. I put together the white Strat that Bob plays. The one with the Tele pickup in the bridge, and the humbucker in the neck. Great guitar!. Shawn Lane was unreal. I wish I had been able to see him. RIP. BTW, I'm loving the 25th Anniversary Hamer that you traded to GC.
  18. I've jammed in my music room with Van Temple (The Producers), Tinsley Ellis, Peter Stroud (Sheryl Crow), Spencer Bean (Gladys Knight and the Pips), Kevn Kinney (Drivin N Cryin), Spencer Kirkpatrick (Hydra), Glenn Phillips and Mike Holbrook (Hampton Grease Band), Jeff Calder and Bob Elsey (Swimming Pool Q's), and Col. Bruce Hampton RIP.. I work on their guitars.. So, I try to steal licks from them.. Ha!
  19. Fantastic! Thanks Saul. I had not seen this one yet. Gales is amazing!
