The Combo Club

And talking about Hartke, and how I felt Hartke does a rock 'n roll thing, this caught my attention today

posted by Carmine Appice from a gig last night. More than reasonably certain that Tim isn't part of the current incarnation (but don't know that for sure). Did see the Hartke and sure looks like a 4x10 on top of a ported 1x15.

That'll move some air!:wideyed:
 
Actually, those are communication badges, as seen on Star Trek TNG and later. You wear 'em on your shirt to be electronically admitted to all VIP areas of The Clubhouse and to communicate instantly with any other Club member(s). I guess you could wear two at once for quadraphonic sound, since each one is stereo.

Dunno why Fearless Leader gets them confused with The Club secret decoder rings. Here ya go, Hazy!

Because this year I’m getting everything confused. I feel like Mr. Magoo, but still look great in dress slacks. Go figure.
 
Thurston Howell made me laugh at "Yale Man" jokes far before any understanding of what Yale is.



Might as well ...



M, that image brought back my kid years when at 5:00 in the afternoon my pop and I would guffaw at the Castaways. Gilligan drove my dad nuts and thought the others should’ve let the headhunters take him to their island

I’m watching the debate but plan on listening to Frank interpret Stairway...
 
Calling all members...calling all members! If you have a moment I could use some support in another thread. Run on over to “Recommend a 1x10 combo” and help me out with a like if you agree. I’m pretty much yanking this guy’s chain now, but he’s got a stinky attitude about inexpensive combos and I decided to drop a manifesto or two on him. Some of our Combo buddies have already lent their support, but it’d be really cool if a wave of positivity draped itself over this gentleman. It couldn’t hurt any. Thanks in advance!

I kicked in my $.02 on Oct., 11th. Time will tell!

Over at a forum that has absolutely nothing to do with bass, the lady mods enforce the KNIT rule for posts

K is it Kind
N is it Necessary
I is it Informative
T is it True

Uncertain what I can say, "Individual 8 Inch" looks to have his heels dug in.

True. BTW, I like your other forum’s motto. I tried my best to mix a little humor with opinion, and not dip into the sham or dishonesty waters. You’re right, his hero’s are probably dug deep, but you’ll notice that I never mentioned favorite shoe wear. What he wears while typing is purely his choice! Not going there.
 
I cancelled my combo order. Sorry everyone. I'm having trouble making decisions lately. I'm going to take my broken amp to the music store first and see if they can fix it before I decide what to do.

Doc, totally understood. Don’t worry about it either. Changing one’s mind concerning musical decisions is a right and privilege! Get your Peavey fixed and let us know what it was. Don’t beat yourself over it. Let Peavey do that if the combo is outta warranty...:sour:
 
Confessing I've never really heard a Hartke. My impression without any pre-load is an amp more to the rock 'n roll side of things. Certainly looks rock, especially with the Epi EB-3. And might have been all over an Epi EB-3 myself were it a short scale. Not really certain why Epiphone decided to make the EB-0 short scale and the EB-3 full scale? The black EB-3 sure looks boss.

I just thought, you may have heard Hartke's, if you heard any of Jack Bruce's more recent playing before he passed on in Oct. 25, 2014. The Cream Reunion Concerts in 2005 at The Royal Albert Hall.

You Betcha'! I've done better with gear over the years with a change of mind. Now, it's what little part of my mind I have left! But I do stand by my
