The Dr. will see you now.

Who is, or what are The Dr. Will? What is his experience with oobleck and why is he looking at M.?

 

[RodRy]

I believe you when you say you’d still probably have the Traynor. I think it’s a really cool amp.

Did you see bhendrix’s Fender Mustang tonight? It’s over in the Rumbler Club. He has it next to his new Studio 40. It’s a beautiful bass. I was just looking them up and the prices seem reasonable for the MIM.

Now that I have all this amp stuff done, it’s time to look for another bass. I’m scouring the earth for a lefty short scale first and then go from there. I found a Gibby EB-0 for fifteen hundred that looked beautiful, but I haven’t set my price range yet.

Since were probably the only two here, I wanted to show this portable stage set up for a country group in our downtown tonight. We were stopped at a crosswalk right at the stage and I had my wife take a picture. It looks bigger then it really was. Do you think you’ve still played smaller stages then this?

I wish I could give you dimensions, but the tent it was under wasn’t anything gigantic. I was thinking like a quartet with drums, bass, guitars. I’d be interested in your thoughts.

Pic of stage does not come up. Gives me an error message.

 

[RodRy]

My first thought: Why do I get an error when I try to open the link.
My second thought: I write something stupid about small stages and leave it there.
My third thought: Naaah, it's not that important.
My fourth thought: Would he be interested in my fifth and sixth thoughts?
My fifth thought: blank, but my sixth is going to be amazing.
My sixth thought: Amazing....

Yes, you should be worried now. Fitting in just way too well.

 

[RodRy]

It's a dead link.

But is it a walking dead link?

 

[RodRy]

Sorry about that everyone. Actually I just wanted to increase curiosity.

Mischief managed!
Yep, goin to the nerdy side!

 

[RodRy]

I've known places where the guitarist (lefty) and I crossed swords while playing.

Hey, watch it, this is a family show!

Just now exploring capitalization?

Dr. Seuss is the doctor in question.

Now I'm curious, I should plug a bass in my 1971 YGM-3 with a single 12" speaker.

JMO, plug it in-volume low-and f---* with it. It'll let ya know if there's a problem developing.

I like to use the "F---" for Fool(with)or for "Foul"(up).

 

[GwenOnBass]

Foul (up) is when I open it up and look inside just to see.

Hey, watch it, this is a family show!

I'm sorry but I don't even want to be a part of this, show it to your own family.

I didn't know there was a blue variant of ooblack known as blue goo

Sorry about that everyone. Actually I just wanted to increase curiosity.

When I lived in Mendocino, CA we had a stage just like that. Hauled it out every year for the band playing on Independence day and occasionally other benefits on the Kelley House lawn. After all those years and hundreds of volunteers, parts went missing. Fortunately, most could easily be replaced with nuts and bolts or fabricated by a handy welder.

Newest combo to the collection. '76 Traynor YGM-4. Two EL84s, four 12AX7s and four eight inch speakers. Bought it for my guitar but it sounds killer with my bass as well. Dead quiet at idle so it will be good for recording.View attachment 3881269 View attachment 3881270 View attachment 3881271 View attachment 3881272 View attachment 3881274

Have you thrown it off a roof yet or was it 'pre-thrown'?

GP, they're pre-thrown, broken tubes replaced, if any, then plugged in to test.

I haven't Pete Traynor'd it yet lol. I am pretty rough on my gear. That's why I buy Traynor

 

[iagtrplyr]

Don't listen to GP about throwing gear, BnW, just use your combo as it was intended and rock on!

That's actually how Traynor tested their amps. They threw them off the roof of the factory lol.

 

[BlacknWhite]

Skip to the 6 min mark haha

Grateful for the "skip ahead" advice
