NGD: Incoming Steve Stevens I (1985)
Stike replied to guitarplayer1's question in Ask the HFC Experts
That didn't start until the early 90s when they switched from nitrocellulose lacquer to CAB urethane. -
Um... Am I done with traditional amps now?
Stike replied to LucSulla's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Agreed but...to be fair, last time the band I'm in played out I had two 4x12s blasting behind me and it was pretty glorious. 🤣 -

Stike replied to LucSulla's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
More often than not for band practice I'm using the IR-J because I don't want to haul anything. For shows though a full backline has "the look". 😄 -

I have four very good sounding tube heads BUT- if they all went away and all I had left was my IR-J and PS-2A I'd be perfectly happy, it doesn't look near as cool but..., 😂 -
How to make a pretty speaker cab

"How to make a pretty speaker cab". I posted the same thread but with a different title last week. 😄 -
Custom head and speaker cabinets incoming
Stike replied to Stike's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Yes handles up top. I did a quick check when the cab arrived before dropping it off for covering and thought it's sounded very good. Didn't give much thought and grabbed a G12T-75 and a ASW KTS60 that have (both 16ohm) and was pleased with that. Might stick with them but also have a Vintage 30 and an Emi Wizard (both 8ohm) kicking around I will try too. -

Suhr SL-15 for now but the Ceriatone JCM-52 chassis will fit if I change my mind. -

I recently ordered a couple custom cabs from TRM ( http://www.trmguitarcabs.com/index.html ) and promptly upon arrival dropped them off with a friend that is very good at applying tolex. Just got the completed pics and will be picking them up asap. I will be rehoming my Suhr SL-15 into the head cab. Speakers still TBD, vertical 2x12 btw. Will probably swap a few different ones in for evaluation. Wish I could play as fast as these look.

Stike and I run our mouths about Van Halen
Stike replied to MCChris's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
That picture cracks me up, it really looks like we're about to throw hands when there was not one point during the recording that even approached contentious. 😄 That was a good time and hopefully the POTheads didn't hate me. It was a little weird being called Ben that many times though. 😄 People started calling me Stike 45 years ago and it kind of never stopped, Zuckerberg won't let me do that on Facebook though so I have to use my going to court name on social media. I'll ship something to you guys soon for the baked goods segment. -
