Yeah Paul you did, now that I re-read it.

this is great advice and would strongly recommend it - just like a drywall hole.

our commercial experience is that FedEx is usually a little cheaper, but not always. cheaper is usually 5%-10%, rarely any more than that. there are many people that swear FedEx causes less damage in transit, but we've not had that experience. in our experiences we've had equal damage by both...

Nice job! That looks great and I'm sure sounds just a good as it looks!

man you guys, i thought that *somebody* would have some advice to share on this... nobody?

no inherent risks other than you may not like the tone. but by the same token, there are some amazing "sleeper" guitar preamps that people use as part of their bass rig that they would never part with. I think there were/are some threads on this forum or others on that topic anyway-...

yup that's the great thing - anybody can do it. making money at it, and keeping the lights on? well.... that's the HARD part :) people have told us before "you should do this, make this, stop doing this". We always tell them, without any sarcasm "don't tell us - go do it! there's a...

Ok folks, need some help/advice on this... We have two Mesa Strategy 400s with the smaller, blue pilot lights (power lights) from the mid-80s. For years it's annoyed me that the lights are so dim, but I've never had a perfect one to compare them to. They are really dim, although they are...

It may be his (or her) first post, but it's not ours. And to my knowledge, we don't post adverts on these forums, nor do we ask our customers to. In fact, we never *ask* our customers to post reviews here or on any other forum, ever. If they do/don't want to post about our products on a forum...

before you do all the dirty work, do a quick check in the phonebook to see if there are any powder coating shops nearby. flat and semi black are the most popular color they shoot, and they'll do all the prep work themselves. it will probably cost you $40-$60 range, but the results will be...

Ouch! Glad (hopefully) you weren't hurt in that! Yeah it's tough stuff. You're right, you definitely get what you pay for in that regard. When you find a good formulation, with a good applicator, you're hooked over anything else.

We have not, but we've never had any reason to believe it has an affect, at least not as we've used them. Admittedly, unscientific, but that's our opinion.

Yeah this is a great point. The Duratex is by far the lightest, because a good portion of it's original weight evaporates off. The other coatings will loose almost no weight. So if 3.5lbs of plural (parts A and B) get sprayed, your cab is going to weigh approximately 3.5lbs more. That's the...

Yes and specifically the DIY thread at the top of the index page.

You're not being rude. Maybe we should invest in skywriting or something : )
