Thunderbird Club

Still miss Christine on here though.

So do I.

Question for those in the club who use a high pass/low pass filter on a pedal board: Where do you place it in the chain and why? Thanks!

I put it immediately after the tuner/wireless receiver. The official reason is that it lets other pedals do their thing and doesn't interfere with the resulting signal. The real reason is that is where I stuck it when I got it and it hasn't moved sense. It seems to work fine for both Thunderbird and doghouse signals. It tightens everything up without making it sound different. It is pure alchemy and way beyond my comprehension about how it does it.

...and the Fixer. Not to mention the all too rare appearance of goat boy.

I am, forgiven....... probably not.

Mine is built into the amp. I assume it's between the preamp and the power section...

...Thunderfunk amp, based on an old Gibson amp with a bit a Acoustic Amp DNA I think.

You are always forgiven. We are able to over look your alien-ness.

I know two things about hockey. Maple Leafs ownership got Scott Young fired as host of Hockey Night in Canada and the Bakersfield Condors are the AHL farm team of the Oilers. Other than that, I got nothin’.

A lot of Acoustic Control DNA.

So that looks suspiciously like a J neck neck with the P label from a MIM Deluxe PJ. What did you do with the body?

Truth be told. An awesome AllParts neck, with Gotoh Reso-Lites on there. Freakin Kills Yo!

EDIT; The body was like that when i got it. I swapped out the pick-ups that were in there. Was non-original, so i put a Pure Vintage '63 and that SD HawkBucker in the the bridge position. The body is a '71, what's left of it...

Same here. Growing up in Canada, I know how it works. I enjoy watching it, but won’t go out of my way for it.

Why watch sports when you could play or listen to music?

Because, in my case, my daughter doesn't play music and we both love hockey, so we make it to a few Lightning games every year. And some Solar Bears(Orlando; Lightning ECHL team). A shared activity.

Am I reading he's an ex-player ?

no, no. Just casual games for fun (& mayhem ?) and fitness.

Make a deal for that Bird and that Ray that are for sale.

I don't think either of those are Whitworth-based!
