Thunderbird Club

They also make semi-flats, whatever those are.

Silencers - "The process of Inverse String Winding compresses the outermost part of the cover wrap leaving the internal structure of the string intact. Exclusive to S.I.T., this design produces a silky feel which is easier on your fingers and frets, but explodes with a great sound. Perfect for fret-less basses. Nickel plated steel over hex-core."

Interesting to know how that differs from GHS Pressurewounds. Sounds different, but seems like the same idea. GHSs are Alloy52, however.

I like Dean Martin--not really that song--but love to hear him sing. Far more than others of that time.

One of my Dad’s favorites!

I figured if you are going to mess with a surly waitress, that's the Dino song to play.

SIT seems to have sets in 40-95, for what that's worth.

What is the difference between Rock Bright Steel and Power Steel?

I may test the waters in your cult (if their online store will sell to a Canadian).

Nothing like sparkly vinyl.

Sparkly is good. Chrome, bass color, naugahide, drum wrap - all better sparkly.

Love the Kustom PA columns.

I see the Silencers are available in 50-70-85-105. Hmmm.

I had a reddish Nauga. No effing idea what happened to it.
Also had a black[no sparkly]R&P Kustom 150(1x15)bass amp. Weighed as much as a P_____. Sold it when I bought my 34.5# Rumble 200cV3.

The clampdown had me pretty tied up since Wednesday noon. Surprised I’m only 20 pages behind. Woke up to this yesterday. April 22nd in the SoCal mountains and still got some snow. Last weekend up here was warm and sunny. So weird.

I like Big Band more from the 40s than anything. But Herb is the man. I had several of him albums as a kid. It was like rock with a horn.

I can't do opera and now have a lower opinion of you, especially now that you've virtual signaled that you are high class and are really one of those highbrow types.

I saw Les Brown and his band at Knott’s Berry Farm in ‘76. Really enjoyed it. Helped open up my mind to other music I hadn’t appreciated before then.

76s have a 34.5inch scale length?

That’s a nice little kit. My brother plays drums and guitar. I’ve toyed around on his kit, but it’s been awhile. I’m awful.

gotta love real diners…..

We used to go to the Boulevard Diner after gigs late at night, it's still operating. Ralph's Chadwick Square diner at the bottom is actually attached to Worcester's punk club, I used to play there with a upright with a magnetic pickup and two SVT set ups, the stuff in my avatar, was a little overkill, I feel bad for the soundman there now thinking of that. .

I still listen to Hawkwind.

I went down a Hawkwind rabbit hole Wednesday night!
