Have a Thunderbird instead.

You’ll probably have a bunch of people saying it’s a conspiracy and demanding their right to buy incandescent bulbs:woot:

What about specialty bulbs for equipment? Like the 25w in my lava lamp?

I don't know that it applies to Canada Irv, so smuggling Incandescents across the border at Blaine, WA could become a thing! My Sylvania Rep says almost everything will no longer be made except some very special applications required for Industry.
 
A drummer acquaintance has been doing a lot of work to promote LGBTQ+ bands, venues, and festivals in the area te past couple of years. But recently, on top of the sort of BS she's had to put up with for years, she's been harassed and bullied by a straight band that got dropped from an event (no fault of hers) that she's decided to hand that off to someone else, accelerate working on her degree, and get the he!! out of Texas. I really wish I'd known about this; I'd happily have helped organize some opposition to the troglodytes. Grrrrr... Waiting to find out who they are.
May they suffer the wrath of Miles:mad:

I thought we stopped selling regular bulbs years ago, but we can still get the specialty lamps.
 
LaBella Nylon produce which tone?
Isn´t supposed to be like flats?
Each LaBella color sounds different. Black is darkest, White is brightest and Red is in the middle, if I recall correctly. I have the blacks on my '06 upon recommendation of Chuck, and I believe GBassNorth as well. I love them on the '06. They are not dark and lifeless by any means.

Been getting used to the rounds I put on my burst bird.
Not half bad at all.
Let’s see how long they last.

But what I really wanna try is Geos suggestion. The white nylon LaBellas.
I loved Chucks 2013 with the black ones.
The whites are brighter.
Of course they are. They're not as 'dark'.
I'll see myself out.
