  1. Past hour
  2. The Fishman’s sound is hard to beat.. I’m curious about the AER Amps.. They’re in their 4th Generation?
  3. I put a Set of Fralin P-90’s in my Casino & they are as good as the Gibson P-90’s in my USA Casino.. That said, if you’re going a Johnny Winter sound that would be Mini Humbuckers.. Sweetwater carries several makes including Gibson.. My Gibson Firebird V has Gibson Mini Humbuckers & they sound great.. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.. I’d go with the Gibson’s… https://www.sweetwater.com/c965--Mini_Humbucker_Electric_Guitar_Pickups
  4. Today
  5. E-minor I use just the smallest amount on the front side in the middle against the end grain--have never had any issue when removing for adjustments, etc. But that's just me. 🙂
  6. I always liked ELO. Richard Tandy, RIP
  7. If it was Pepsi Clear it would never have caught fire. Or sold any cases.
  8. I heard a few hours ago. ELO had many damn fine albums.
  9. Very sad. 😔 https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/he-was-a-remarkable-musician-and-friend-jeff-lynne-pays-tribute-to-electric-light-orchestra-keyboard-player-richard-tandy-who-has-died-aged-76/ar-AA1o0g85
  10. I need to break out On The Threshold Of A Dream. I listened to Children’s Children the other night.
  11. the nature of this question is such that the harder you try to answer it, the less credible you are likely to be
  12. When you say FIrebird pickup, do you mean the mini-humbucker? 🙂
  13. If there was a Dial a Guitar Prayer hotline, mine would be for Bozeman to come out with a late-1950s or 1960s inspired J45/50 with 20 frets and the big pointy pickguard which sported the non-scalloped bracing Gibson went with in 1955. I really liked the sound of those guitars.
  14. Oh that’s a good looking Dove. Thanks for lightening this bit of the thread. I agree with everything you are saying. I’m sorry the egg experiment didn’t turn out as expected. The folks who got our eggs with their bright yellow yolks, loved them. Assuming the historic site birds were still fed some sort of feed in addition to foraging, I wonder if it was corn-based? The name brand commercial preps usually are. Ours was a local mix of whole grains. They got corn cobs occasionally, just for treats. One amusing thing that set us apart from other firms, for a while, our employees got an “eggs and hamburger” benefit/perk. When we bought our place it came with a dozen chickens (so a dozen eggs a day) and we once bought a 1/4 beef from our rancher neighbor not understanding how many 100s of pounds of ground was involved 😆. We’re just two people! So the staff could raid the fridge and freezer whenever they wanted. Anyway, unlike most farm birds, these ones being tended by misplaced city folks, ours all got to live out their natural chicken lives even after they stopped laying. They were amazingly fun pets. We didn’t realize though they can live 10-12 years. Our rooster was so mellow, he actually liked to be picked up and held. Unlike some roosters, who can be a dangerous problem, he never bothered his girls. If he tried to get frisky with them, they’d just give him a look and sidestep, and he’d start pecking around as if to say, “oh no! Not me! I wasn’t trying anything!” He would always find treats and excitedly bring them over to give the gals. He was a good boy. When the last old girl was all alone, we realized she was afraid to cross the big yard to her loafing bush, so every morning one of us would stroll across the yard with her, where she would settle in safe from the hawks, etc. In the afternoon, we’d fetch her back and she’d cluck and chortle all the way, like she was telling us about her day. They were really great birds.
  15. I need some help!! I play classic rocks, blues, Johnny Winter slide etc. I’m building an offset guitar with a humbucker bridge and a p90 or firebird pickup in the neck (with a p90 ring I can put the firebird in there). Of course I want them to play well together. I prefer to get dirt from a cranked amp, and really like the Monty or Throbak PAF for the bridge but am not married to them. Can you recommend the very best of the P90, Firebird, and humbucker that will play well together? Maybe the mojo or Lollar firebird for neck, Fralin or Wolfetone p90 for neck, and a Monty’s traditional paf bridge ? Just spitballing. For example, I know some P90’s in the neck and get real woofy and too thick. I also know that a mini might be too weak for a hungrier that’s too strong. So I’m just trying to find the balance. Thank you so much.
  16. Greg Gaffin (probably spelled wrong) from Bad Religion has a PH.d, I think. Saw them 3 times. They are not bad. But punk all starts to sound the same. Hey anyone have the first five Ramones albums, yeah they’re all the same. They just have different titles on them. It’s like Motörhead, or AC/DC. They’re all the same. If you have Powerage or Ace Of Spades, you don’t need any more
  17. X were a killer P U N K band. Saw them twice. Under The Big Black Sun is a really good album. Social D, I only liked Prison Bound. The first one was okay. DK were a joke. California Uber Alles is about all I can take from them. How many times can one listen to To Drunk To . . .? The Pistols were clowns too. You forgot Black Flag, they were brutal. My War and Slip It In were not bad.
  18. Wishing for a speedy recovery John!
  19. 1988. Wow Did BJA say when Dump was elected he was gonna leave the country? Sounds like something a real punk would say and not follow through with. I wish they had 0 minutes left.
  20. By the time Michael had his Pepsi accident technology had advanced to the point that the mech-hat was obsolete. They were able to reconstruct MJs scalp using material harvested from a series of rhinoplasties
  21. To be honest I feel like I said way too much myself.. The thing is whether we’re right or wrong, the fact that this kid likes Green Day doesn’t hurt anyone. Us trying to rain on his parade on the other hand is somewhat malicious, and I don’t even know why I have that inclination to be malicious. Probably daddy issues or something If you take a step back it’s a bad look to argue with this kid whether you think you’re right or wrong. I know how I feel about Green Day but not everyone has to feel the same as I do my apologies to the OP for the way I initially reacted and the way this thread went
  22. Maintain a constant state of positivity. That’s an order!
  23. Jealous!! I like loud I love it when you validate my opinions. My buddy hit me up to jam sometime soon and I was thinking they have a lot of songs that would be really good to cover. Gonna have some fun with that
