Stunning scenery. As for that car, it's a Triumph, so it's not quite sure if it'll start...

Well..........

......it works!

(I put a Thunderbird in the pic so I could be thread-topic relevant. For a change. )




Some of the pots are scratchy as he......ck, but otherwise seems to be functioning as it should

Daaaaaaaaaaaaang! That’s pretty!

Triumph Spitfire! My first car was a '68 Spit !

Rust with white trim. That's me on the right mom made me take off my army jacket and put the jock jacket on. Lol

Done. Feels better. I’ll know for sure after rehearsal tomorrow night.

I’ve been to Tampa twice during the winter and the weather was the same as Vancouver.

But the Hockey team is better.

You'll be happy with it. Then you can put one of these on the horn. And call it a TBird.

Bold stroke, driving a rusty Triumph in that neck o' the woods.

Who what have thought. I didn't know Vancouver had such warm Winters, or you hit FL with some odd timing.

Vancouver doesn’t really get very cold. Much like Seattle, winters are mostly grey and wet.

Can’t argue that! We have never won the cup. Too many distractions around here

And once again, miss FixIts home for disabled gear brings another one back to life.
I love a happy ending.

I've always liked tinkering on broken things - when I was younger & still into cars (before computers/electronics started to take that spot), I liked to find old broken-down cars in fields & such, and drag them home (sometimes literally.... ), and tinker on them just enough to get them drivable again. Then I'd generally lose interest & sell or swap it for something else that was broken.

As long as I don't have be in it Or talk
I really don't like being on camera, still or video

In the winter we put a orange bike flag on it so it could be seen behind snow banks. Hardly a car at all more like a glorified go cart.

Fantastic band and underrated! Always loved Mike's thick bass tone. I was fortunate enough to see them right when their first album came out. The music was the show.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Is this stuff okay to use on amp pots & switches?

View attachment 4475196

That stuff is the bomb.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

I don't know why Gibson doesn't just put the button there in the first place. It's there on all of my 'Birds, the P-Bird, the EB-2, and I moved it there on the 2013 EB. The EB was fine with the button in the original location, but it was limited in what you could do with it. It was like a Fender, in that it had one spot where it wanted to be and that was it. With the pin relocated, it can hang wherever I want it to, not where it wants to.

Nah. Gibson knows best.

Yeah, what a clunker...

Yeah, the arrogance of Thunderbird experts here is nothing short of being based on fact. Who do these people think they are here anyway? If it was the right and wise thing to do, doggone-it...Gibson would certainly have done it as their great track record demonstrates. I mean, think about it, you have a perfect Thunderbird PU and PU placement that works on an epic level. So clearly the right thing to do is change both. Who in their right mind would ever question such logic?
