Meanwhile, back at the ranch...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Someone's Facebook profile says he's headed to Chicago. Could it be?...  :-X

Mmmmm...could be.  I was headed there anyway, but the timing is perfect, since we just got our homebuyer's tax refund.  And my daughter is about 15 minutes from where Mark lives.   I think you can guess the rest...

That Embassy was Gary's bass for 20 years (and mine for 7). It's on its way home now.

No, but I can tell you that the friendliest women I ever met were in Battle Creek.   :mrgreen:

I used this last friday with the stereobasses (neck pickup to Hiwatt DR103 and EBS CL2x12" cab, bridge to Vox AC50 head and Vox 2x12" cab) and it sounded fabulous. I just have to hope that the Vox's owner will let me loan it again in the future.;) Sorry for the grainy pic.

I'm not criticizing ANYone's rig...I'm just surprised how immune to amp-enticement I have become after going with lightweight Genz-Benz gear.   ;D

With the 12-string bass I have had to accept that it needs that extra effort which means multiple and preferrably tube amps. I also come from the school that the looks mean a lot too which usually means weight and sweating.;)

Yeah , I've whittled my music store salesman interrogations down to two questions. "How many watts and what does it weigh?" The rest of the stuff I'll figure out ;D

I've kinda do the same thing inasmuch as I run the Ampeg SVP-PRO preamp into Class D amps. Had to after my hernia.  :-[   Actually sounds better.
