I prefer tubes myself, but old 70s SS Sunns are nothing to sneeze at.

Oh my, this has been one hell of a weekend. Saturday is our school's...shall we say...tacitly acknowledge day of "psychedelic" exploration, and then today was of course the 20th. I don't remember any of the bands that played yesterday, but while wandering around near one of the dorms today, stumbled upon this awesome group just going at it. No announcements had been made that I recall, and after checking their tour dates, we were not listed as a stop, but goddamn am I glad they came through. Maybe the best band I've ever heard on my college campus, and definitely a good group for this particular day. Some of the stuff they were playing today was seriously spacey in the jam parts, not doomy, I know but still.

You should get some light cabs to go with those light weight amps. :rolfmao:

Since we are no longer limited to 1000 posts per thread, what we need to do is start a new thread to be the thread of all threads.

We need an epic title though since we'll have to live with it forever.

Spoiler, Darth Vader turns out to be Kirk's dad! Han solo rescues Spock before Bubba Fett can freeze him in carbonara though, so rest easy.

Also happy birthday Mike. Hopefully it won't take 2 years, or a year. What's your quoted timeframe?

Well you won't get caught up with anodizing like I did with the wood body, so perhaps it is possible. The 35.5" neck isn't a stock thing so that may add some delay to your time. But he's done thunderbird bodies before, and he's got the wood for it already. Hopefully it'll come out in a reasonable time frame.
