The Combo Club

Me too! My arthritic thumb has been bothering me since my chiro appointment when she beat it to death and then told me I may have surgery in my future to clean out the base. Oh, joy. So let's give it a shot! ... ...


:woot: Oh, no! Too much base in your thumb? Just turn up the meds & the trouble to balance it out. ;) Ain't no thang.
.
... ... BTW, running through the V_X S_ p _ rB_ _ t_ e.


Come on back on that, good buddy Yer last transmission was garbled I'm reading you 5 by 5, but need a repeat, come on.
.
Shh...it's 'cuz he, you know who doesn't like to hear about non-combos here.


Well, dang! You just talked about that Sparky thang a while ago, and that's a combo. So, you oughta be good for a while. Heck, somebody just mentioned "Vox" in the Rumble Club a minute ago, and ain't nobody got bent outta shape over there. ;)

Must admit, one of your better punskis. My problem is I like scooped meds (as in little to none) and don’t need any more stinkin’ trouble! As for the thumb base, I’d like to swap it out for a newer model...

Doggie, sometimes you feel like a Vox, sometimes you don’t.
 
Contains all the books ever written. Some assembly required.
"How do you spell__________?"
"Go look it up in the dictionary".
"How'm I s'posed to do that if I can't spell it?"
ETA: ptarmigan or pterodactyl for example.

Having seriously considered, and being invited for, a doctorate in journalism, there is also the possibility of hey doc! Come here and spell this word!

Hunter S. Thompson earned his doctorate in journalism... But real journalism is done on the street, which which I see little. What I saw is, um, better detour that line of inquiry. What I see is there's a lot of bass and bass playing to be done today. Turning up the Ampeg BA-108 Plus is a daily deal (about noon on volume). Got me a groove to be working on.

I would say congratulations is in order! The invite alone is something special I would think. You should definitely consider it, M. Then we’d be calling you Dr. M, Cranker of Ampeg Combo Amps!

Aw that was half a lifetime ago, and the professor who offered the sponsorship also wanted me to work in an discipline I didn't (and don't) care for all that much.

A diploma in music may not mean all that much either. You can either do the job or go back to the woodshed.
