The only problem with the Panasonics is they're finicky as hell about what they'll play. They say they'll do pretty much anything, but I have a stack of about 15-20 home-recorded and/or imports that used to play fine on my old Sony and won't play at all on the Panasonic.

I know where that Standard is....And it's for sale....I think it's the same one??
Man I just bought the Zandard or I'd be all over it. I'd like to get a Studio of some sorts sooner or later. The Oceanburst is just killer.
I'll buy you the OceanBurst if you'll trade me the Zandard for it!!!
You buy me that Oceanburst then talk Hamer into building me my C/O and them pay for it and its yours. I think i'm safe unless your plan on holding someone by gun point.
Should have added on more clause.
( Fogive the Dry Smile) I'm thinking... Don't forge Lord of the Thighs Blue Standard.
OK, I've done everything you asked. I'll just PM you my address for the Zandard. I can get your address from the shipping label and I'll just use the same box to ship your OceanBurst back to you. Cool?

Years ago, before any of these were widely available, I bought both Phil Lynott solo CD's and a couple of Thin Lizzy for about $40 each at a CD show (remember those?). And this was at a time when I had NO money. I remember agonizing at the booth with them in my hand so no one else could get them. I was so scared I'd never see them again, and I still have them all.

Thanks, guys. I found some reviews and other forums where Teese pedals were discussed and pulled the trigger on an older RMC3. The consensus seems to be "totally worth it", so I figure if I don't like it I can at least get my money back out of it.

I'd like to get a Teese RMC3 Wah and wondering whether I should go for a new one or an older used one.
The ones currently produced have "fuzz friendly" circuitry. I would guess that means they work well with a fuzzbox as opposed to tube amp distortion, but I never use a fuzzbox. I've read some reviews on the RMC3 and quite a few people say the older ones sound better, and I wonder if it's attributable to the change to "fuzz friendly"???
Anyone with some experience with Teese wahs have any advice or opinion?

The Darkness was one of the better shows I've seen in the last 5 years. I've seen a LOT of really good shows in that time period too, but they were totally living it up - it was a full-on, '70s style, big rawk show.
Yes, they are currently residing in the "Where are they now?" file, but that was a damned good live band.
I agree. I saw the Darkness at the 9:30 in DC a few years ago and they were great! The show reminded me of a Kix show: funny frontman, killer guitar work, hooky tunes, and crazy high energy.
Justin has a new band called Hot Leg that is basically the Darkness Redux. They have a MySpace site and there are numerous videos on YouTube. Check 'em out.

I wish I knew how all you guys get such great pics of your gear (and feet!). Here are a few pairs of mine, terribly photographed:
Malcolm and Angus
1/2" checks, 3/4" checks

From a gig this weekend.

Phil Rudd of AC/DC. To a fan, he's no bit player, but to most of the world, Angus is the only one who matters. Chris Slade did a good job on Razor's Edge and the double live album that followed though. They still haven't recovered fully and Phil's back! New album this year, so we'll see.
Any one of the guys from Ted Nugent's first album. Ted was/is/always will be all about Ted, but as each one of those guys left, the feel and attitude took another slight dip and it became almost a parody of itself.
Tom Peterson of Cheap Trick. Again, to a fan, not a bit player. Of course, he came back and they're making killer albums again and no one cares.

New Girl Now??? You guys ROCK!!!

It changes from time to time, but I always come back to Fair Warning. I have a soft spot for Diver Down because it seems to be the one everyone dislikes. I remember when VH1 came out, and on first listen I hated it (I wasn't playing yet), but the first LP I ever bought was VH2!
I'll see how they do it live Friday night in Charlottesville.

Dang! And none of you guys were interested in the one I posted for sale?

I'm brand new here - in fact, I just found the place today after losing that very checkerboard Special and wondering if I dropped out too soon. Anyone care to guesstimate what it would have been worth with a non-checkerboard finish to help educate me? How hard is the checkerboard finish to come by? Anyone know if Hamer (or anyone else) will still do the checkerboard and approximately how much it would cost?
To introduce myself: huge Cheap Trick fan, never had or wanted a Hamer until recently I played in a band and that's all the other guitarist used. He had various models from various years and bought and sold regularly. In the last 4-5 years, he's probably had at least 12 different Hamers. I played them and like them, and the Rick Nielsen connection got me thinking about looking for one of my own in checkerboard or korina.
And now, here's my kick-myself story. In the early 90's, I had a chance to buy TV Yellow AND a red Special new for $500 (for both!) and PASSED. Back then, that was a pretty big sum and I had no idea what Hamer's quality or reputation were.
Anyway, good to be here, and any answers to the questions in the first paragraph would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is when your old DVD player dies and you decide to take the plunge on a Blu-ray only to find out you have disks that won't play.
