Thunderbird Club

A little more green, I could go on for a couple more days.

YOW!

Some small cities here are like that too. The're outlawed in most sections of Lima. I've taken them before. They use really small bikes, 150-200 cc motors.

Here, they are all LNG converted small diesel engines.

This is from 2016 (7 yrs ago! ~yowza!~) - sound-man recorded our pre-set sound-check with only a couple friends in the club, one of whom filmed it. I am playing my highly modified P/J with a Marty Bell sparkle finish.

5/4 as it should be!

I'm shorter.
I'm heavier.

I do like the SVTs. There’s a Coliseum on the GC used site for $500. What are they asking down there?

bout the same..

Most pedals on my pedal-train are used on only one or two songs each, and for BG I have an additional pedal (the micro POG) outside of my enclosed box. But.., for what they deliver, I don't mind the extra effort to connect them.

A lot of the places we play were most definitely not designed for live music, thus a shortage of electrical sockets, so we hafta choose what gets plugged in and what gets eliminated. Also the time factor: we can't set up until ~1 hour b4 downbeat 'cos the band 'space'(not stage or stand)is being used for something else. Such as BINGO or whatever.

Looks like I've saved a lot of money not knowing anything about this pedal.

It's a cheap no-frills variation of the Tube Screamer type of an overdrive with bass and treble EQ. I first tried it when my buddy needed an overdrive for his guitar playing son ("something cheap, not too metal"). Another friend had one and let it go for 40 euros. We tried it and it sounded very good. I was intriqued by the additional "mixer out", found out it was a built-in cab simulator for DI connection, took it for a brief test at home and found out it sounded great too when connected straight to the recording equipment (or DAW as it is called nowadays). It also sounded great with bass and had not a lot of low end loss.
Bought one for myself not too long after that and used it a lot with both bass and guitar. The whole "mixer out" cab-sim thing got me into the whole IR technology which has helped a lot with logistics playing in a theatre for example and enabled me to get "my sound" when mic'ing an amp isn't an option.

If someone famous like John Mayer or other hotshot player had used the Monkey prominently after it had been discontinued I bet it would have been more sought after much earlier.

It's a great pedal definitely not worth thousands or hundreds of dollars.

 

[Instagator]

Interesting thought. I will start reporting my weight in stone. It sounds like a lot less and no one knows how to convert.

Everything I know about weight in stone I learned from AC/DC

Let the cage fight begin and the best amp win.

4 years ago, a friend gave me this SG unknow brand guitar; she was cherry red.
2 years after decided to refinish in green-purple chamaleon paint; last month I sent to guitar tech to change all hardware and eletronics for Epiphone ones.






Actual condition is beside Thunderbird, on previous message.

I bought a slightly ratty, low end Gibson SG a while ago. I really like it a lot. Too bad it sounds awful when I play it. The extra two little strings confuse me.

It is faded red, meaning satin-ish and very thin nitro. I have thought about getting it refinished, but it feels so good to my hands that it probably will stay just as it is.

SGs have been an acquired taste for me. I thought they were goofy looking for years.

The extra two little strings confuse me.

That´s exactly my opinion.

I vote Tubezilla without even hearing it. It just looks so confident. Even with it hanging off the back.

Good mornin'

Back at you! Dogs are fed, enjoying quiet, and ready to make breakfast. My Saturday tradition.

Despite the neck dive, they’re so comfortable and easy to play.

I think most Uni’s have clubs I know UCI had both men’s and women’s.

When I played, I don't recall any women's teams. I find it odd that women want to play such a rough sport. And I am equally mystified by women's MMA. But, if that is what they want to do, that is their choice.

The after game keggers were legendary.

The aftergame kegger is fun for the "singing".

And the hooker on the women’s team was really cute.

1. Ahem
2. It was always fun to tell people that my dad was a hooker. I was not a hooker; I played wing.

Our 'growing season' is 1/1-12/31.

True enough. But I think you left out the 2 days of Winter, then back to Summer.
