Epi T-bird back from repairs
« on: May 08, 2010, 01:16:58 PM »
Man, that was a long week! Repair is great: it was glued, then clamped for a week. This thing sounds SO good it's ridiculous and NOTHING like the Korean Epis I have. E is a loud, deep, gritty brute yet A,D, and G have nice clear tones which reminds me of the Rick's woody sound. It's an interesting mix.

Here are some pics I took this afternoon. I feel lucky to have scored this one and it's definitely a keeper, right at the top of my favorites!

Welcome home for the reconvalescent!

It still puzzles me why Gibson can't make one of these.

It's a long running joke here, Denis (going all the way back to the Dudepit days)...

Why do you think George wears those dark glasses...? and let's not forget that cross-dressing shot of unknown origins... ;)

It still puzzles me why Gibson can't make one of these.

Who was it that commented about the CS's dislike of building them, so what hope of a quality budget job...?
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...
