Thunderbird Club

i played this at rehearsal this past Saturday, it's just perfect thru the Trace Elliott/SWR. We worked up "Everybody wants to rule the world", Tears for Fears, "Rain" The Cult and "Fantasy" Aldo Nova. We had a good time, and a band GTG afterwords.

From the 50s(yeah, I'm old)up until the 90s, I could tell you the make and model-and the year within a 3 year window-of most cars, even familial 'twins', i.e. Ford and Mercury from 50 yards +/-. At least American cars. But the laws of aerodynamics and the efforts to achieve better gas mileage dictate that, from the side at least, ya can't tell a Toyota from a Buick from a Nissan from a...etc, etc.
I could tell a 49, 50, or 51 Ford by its grille-or taillights-from ~100 feet. Same with 52-54. Now I can't tell you what the car in front of me is w/o seeing the badge.

That's because it seems Toyota makes all cars now.....

No offense to Toyota owners. They are very reliable cars. Some of which are also made here in the Commonwealth.

In guitars I’m only a learner and as you know I’ve bought a cheap SX Telecaster copy.
These below are my favourites but not in any order.
Gibby/Eppy: Les Paul, SG, Firebird, Dot, Casino, ES125/175 (Thorogood)
Fshape: Strat, Tele,
Gretsch: Falcons, DuoJet (George Harrison & Malcolm Young)
Rick: The John Lennon one :) (325?)
Guilty thought, the PRS Santana Double Cut

Basses: Thunderbird's & P’s, Rick 4001/3,
JC’s & Hofner Beatle to look at
Surprisingly, I’ve been desiring the Gibson LP DC recently

A friend just got a PRS guitar. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's got a mahogany body with a flame maple cap. It's finished with a clear finish on the mahogany and a blue burst on the maple cap. The way the edges are cut, the mahogany is prominent all the way around the front of the guitar. Of course, it's got the usual PRS bird inlays, too. It's very pretty. It also sounds great. He's been playing a Strat for a long time. The PRS blows the Strat into the next county through his pedals and amp.

A Gretsch Falcon is on my list of way too expensive toys for when I retire and can spend time actually learning to play more than a few power chords on a guitar.

In an effort to allay any fears, I am continuing to consume those little 50ml bottles of "Peanut Butter Whiskey" in an effort to find one that truly tastes like P-Nut butter.
So far...
