Nice thrift store, and I guess I'm not the only one with that Melvin's two disc set, I'd yet to see another one.

Are they out of print or something? I gots one somewhere. Some pretty good stuff if I remember correctly. I remember them coming out with a few albums that made me question my purchase back around the mid Nineties, when I was a starving college student. Albums like Prick and whatnot made me wish I bought a pizza instead. lol.

Speaking of the Melvins. I talked to Joe Preston (Thrones) this weekend. I confirmed with him that I saw him back when they opened for Gwar (America Must Be Destroyed) tour. Pretty cool guy and way cool music.

Cool! I dig the way you could read the Laney lettering from across a full venue!

So my band finally has a Bandcamp now that our drummer is no longer with us. We need to find a new drummer and we are going to keep truckin.

So this is just two songs we recorded in my basement as a demo. Pretty rough and not our best songs, but the two that were the easiest to pull off as most of the other songs have much trickier parts and solos. Also, not our doomiest songs.

Enjoying your bandcamp with my morning coffee, good stuff!

Looking spiffy Sam.

Slick!

Thanks Gents! Going to let that first coat of tru oil have a few days to really soak in good. The wood on the body was way more thirsty than the neck wood for some reason. I didn't ant to put too much oil, but just enough to even it out where it was not taking the light coat of oil as well as other parts of the body. Can't wait to have all the coats done and slap the parts back on and wire it up!

F212. I played one over the weekend. Form factor is so good, that I would move the 12/6's to fund one.

Thanks, I can't wait to record the good songs but they would have taken more time than we had with our old drummer. Wouldn't you know it just last night he offered to come back. Me and my guitarist are hesitant after he kind of left us in the lurch before.

Yeah I just shook my head on that thread. "I like this cab but want something smaller..." The only answer is to spend 7 times as much for a Berg cab that doesnt go low. You know, when the OP could just build a smaller, lighter cab from the same line that he already knows he likes.

Hey, its "amps" its full of pissy b!tches.

my sound city died last weekend, thought it was just a fuse but alas its something else. hopefully its just a loose connection or wire somewhere. if its a power tranny, oh boy.

Damn bee that sucks. Hope it's cheap!

I have to admit the F215 is tempting, I don't need one though, my 66 can go lower (technically) but I do find that I use my 66 for more low end than anything, so having only 1 6" or the highs/mids is appealing for some reason.

But if you are going low, the '66 wins out there for sure as well.

i talked about it with nick and he doesnt seem to think it sounds too terrible, so im just in wait and see mode. anything other than a tranny wont be a big deal. im hoping its just some wires or a tube thing (it needs to be retubed anyways).

Yeah I think the best advice was get a hand truck, it's not that heavy anyway really.
