It's all I got for Twosday.

Gotcha. 3/5 of mine do. I wish they all did, but you can't always get what you want.

But if you try, sometimes …

 

[Miles_ONeal]

In, out, and power on top edge would be good. Haven’t seen any in my price point

All my more recently designed pedals have top jacks. Moving forward, when there are otherwise similar choices, I’ll lean toward top jack solutions.

There is a pattern or theme going on there.

That board is a stellar example of shallow. It should be commended highly.

An AMX is a big car relative to a '50s Corvette or two seat Thunderbird. Thunderbirds bloated up quickly when they got back seats. Corvettes also got bigger. Low mass is its own reward sometimes. Too bad more car companies don't know that.

What a worn out, out of date, crummy old dust catcher. I'll take it off your hands and won't even charge for the service. It's a service I provide, but only to my friends.

Throw in a couple 360s, EB3, flamingo, I’m sure I missed something as I don’t play upright or drums.

Exactly. I've been using fuzz for a couple of things lately, and my search for a good one automatically ruled out side jacks. Sorry, EHX. But I'm really enjoying the EQD Hizumitas. Thanks, Wata.

Thank you, sir. And you know what I went through just to get a black Hizumitas. The shallowness knows no bounds.

nope, AMXs have a 97" wheelbase, shorter than both the 57 TBird/Vette (102") or than the 98" of the 68.(and later) Vette....they are also lighter than V8 Vettes or (any) TBird....although muscular styling creates an optical illusion AMXs are tiny....

I stand corrected. An AMX just got even more desirable.

Happy BDay Donnie!......if it makes you feel any better, I once had a black belt, now I just have a big belt...

Hey Donnie, a most Happy Birthday to you pal.

Happy Birthday, Donnie!

Appreciate it V! Have some good German food for supper for me.

Have a great B’Day Donnie!

Thanks George. I woke up and looks like I'll go to sleep in my own bed, have good friends so it's a good day.

Since Donnie likes deer and turkeys, I though I'd bring him some birthday entertainment.

That little buck needs to grow some...

Where I live in Des Moines is fine, I'm well up the hill from Puget Sound ( higher than most of Florida!), however, the Kent Valley where I catch my Sounder train is pretty badly flooded. Some train service interruptions but nothing bad, it's supposed to get nasty again later today.

It was warm in California!

Good to hear!
Higher than Florida, lol...
My kid and her fiance live right over Puget Sound, they're ok.

I'd rather have the AMX any day. Stands out, among other things.
Watch any auction and there's more Corvettes than shrimp in the Gulf.
