tommy p Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 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 To paraphrase Three Dog Night, "A Custom is black, a Custom is white..."
Armitage Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Oh come on... someone was going to do it sooner or later...
JohnnyB Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Hmmm ... studios have a belly cut do they? I wish you hadn't told me that! So do the late '90s Phantom Customs.
veatch Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 GEC KT66... Very nice.... So how much "better" (i know - subjective) do they sound than the current Chinese shtuff? Worth the extra scratch? Sorry for the hijack - my pics will be coming...
Guest pirateflynn Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 GEC KT66... Very nice....So how much "better" (i know - subjective) do they sound than the current Chinese shtuff? Worth the extra scratch?I put them in a Germino C45 along with Mullard preamp and rectifier tubes. That amp sounded noticably better afterward. It's hard to say which tubes had the biggest impact but it did sound excellent! If you have an amp that's a true keeper I think spending some money on good tubes is a worth it.

I have an old Germino Rock Grinder that kicks. I haven't found any GECs for a reasonable enough price to try them, though. The search will continue... Anywho, here are some pics. A pair of Studios: A pair of Artists: The 59-bursts together: A pair of Gibsons: A pair of BC Riches:
Russ Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Here's my pair...er...I mean trio...number 4 to arrive in a week or so... (Is it just me, or does Hamer make some really awesome shit? - rhetorical question)
