WinCE? I remember when WinCE was the smart phone OS all the computer guys used.

That's not my smart phone, my smartphone is a HUAWEI 6X, it's a cheap one. I'm more of an analog person.

I used to like Fender flats too.

If the Fender flats weren’t so high tension. I’d still be using them now.

They don't sound the same anymore though, they sound really middy to me now, I bought some last year, I used to like them on Rics.

They don't work anymore. The servers integral to their function were shut off beginning of the year.

They moved to an Android OS. Still license hardware but seem to focus on second world markets.

I like that photo except you need another SVT cab.

I don't know if my back could handle a second one...My insurance company did give us a discount because the amps anchor the foundation of the house during tornado and hurricane season.

Haven't played then in ages.
But if they’re not like I remember.
Then I’m really glad I don’t play them.

I had heard they changed their formula too.

I could say much about Blackberry - a mixture of fact and opinion. But the one word summary is "Arrogance".

just a week shy of 13 months... I'm sure fedex will make it well over 13 months...

patience has paid off, got it below current cost. But have to put off my DC project and a couple others, defret soon.

Such a beautiful bass. I hope it figures out how to escape the mad man with the fret puller.

Weren't those the DC politician's choice at one time?

 

[MCF]

Yes, there's been a lot of controversy lately. Part of it is from Giles Martin going through the studio logs as he remixes stuff that IMHO should stay the way his father mixed it. Ahhhh. I feel better now.

Exactly. If it ain’t broke…

Yep. Nothing like routing all your data through Waterloo Ontario. What could go wrong with a single point of failure? Waterloo rarely gets power outages. Foreign spies have only one "super secure" point to breach to access your data stream. Sending all your data through a foreign country (yes, Canada is still independent from USA). What could go wrong?

I had no idea they lasted that long.

 

[Stealth57]

Weren't those the DC politician's choice at one time?

Yes, due to the security features…that went in the er when they moved to Android.

 

[Chucky Stiletti]

Yep! Although I prefer any form of point to point over PCB.

there’s folks that won’t even touch PCBs…

That was for public users. Corporate and government users could setup their own servers.

Am I the only one who didn't know that Gibson made a passive Tobias in the 90's with Thunderbird pickups??? It's essentially a Killer B with T-Bird pup's.

Great...

Another thing I didn't know I needed.
