hamerhead Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 Being a hermit I don't often get to meet an HFCer in person, but Bruce made the trek to my house Thursday to pick up the Frenzel head, and it was pretty awesome. And damn if he hasn't met a bunch of you guys. It was fun ripping on all y'all and showing off some guitars, but because I was 'working' we didn't get to spend nearly as much time yapping as was needed. Thanks, Bruce! It was great to finally meet you. Feel free to stop in any time.
BruceM Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 It's always good to meet a fellow HFC'er in their natural environment. And thanks for the amp. It sounds very good through the Dr. Z 1x12 cabinet. I'm going to have some fun with this one. You'll have to make the road trip to Minneapolis someday when the 4-3-2-1 Club is welcoming visitors again. I'll have to try to make a list of all the HFC'ers I've met over the years. It's gotta be close to 150. And for some reason I feel like I know these people as soon as I meet them. Especially the old timers.
Hamerica Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 ^^^^^ This!!!!! I’ve always been amazed at the quality of people I have met all due from a band from Rockford and a “boutique” guitar manufacturer from Chicago/New Hartford. Hamerica
Cary Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 I had the pleasure of meeting him at one of the HFC get togethers 20 years or so ago, and I can attest he’s a good guy, and one of the HFC OGs!
tomteriffic Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 Had the pleasure a couple of times, once or twice at the Midwest jams, another at a guitar hand-off while he was flying by in Dayton. Got to meet his mom and step dad (?) over lunch. And yeah we ripped on y'all then too 🤣. Bruce was responsible for some of the best, most timeless advice I've ever gotten: "Always know where the camera is".
belgian Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 He even came over to bring a guitar to Belgium! Paid him back with waffles.

hamerhead Posted August 29, 2021 Author Posted August 29, 2021 I was wondering that about Texas Toast.
polara Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 I had the pleasure when he came by to take possession of Ultimate No. 21. Glad it found a good home.
hamerhead Posted August 30, 2021 Author Posted August 30, 2021 Jeez, don't get 'em started on 'sprouts'.
