If you want the ladies to throw their undies at you onstage, play in a polka band. (I do, and its bound to happen one of these days ... uh, right?).

I don't know if I'd want to see the undies that would be thrown a polka show.

Overdrive pedals contain a small bear and a microphone. When you step on the switch to 'activate' the pedal it drives a small spike into the bear's flesh causing the bear to growl into the microphone resulting in the 'overdrive' sound heard from your amplifier. The 'gain' and 'drive' knobs are generally attached to the bear's nipples resulting in different levels of growl or roar when they are turned clockwise and counter-clockwise
Fuzz pedals, on the other hand, utilise Africanised bees which are gently compressed when the pedal is activated via the footswitch.

Transistors in amplifiers are made of smoke... when the smoke comes out, it ceases functionning

It's not true that girls don't notice the difference between a bass and a guitar. Try playing a Hello Kitty strat and you'll see.

A friend of mine had an old bassman once that I'm pretty sure had caps made of fire, lots of fire.
