I won't retell the whole story, but I was in a big music store in FL a few years ago and they were having a class on doing live sound. I happened to overhear the "expert" say "With a bass you don't need to worry about micing the amp, just use a DI. But Guitar players need a mic on their amp." It was all I could do ask why I bother to buy expensive heads/cabs and do you think it's possible I want my sound heard not just for me on stage? I know it makes it real easy for them, but so would a lot of things they will never ever do.

to boot, they have the audacity to ask for the pre, not post-EQ signal into the DI.....just tell them to sod off...
A former co-worker told us how he paid for multiple, month-long trips to the USSR and later Russia by taking a couple of suitcases full of Levis, Wranglers, and cool tee shirts and selling them or trading them.
The video someone posted here recently of the Gibson factory tour said they plek every single fretboard.
I knew that from somewhere. Must have been that.
They actually plek all but one of the fretboards, that way when somebunny posts about having problems, no one believes them.
I had a crazy busy summer into January. Been lurking when I can trying to keep up. Now Im working an outage in a Nuclear energy generation plant. Back to busy for a couple weeks
german frozen grapes turned into wine…usually seasonal and awesome…How do you make wine from ice?
Same!
When I went to college, one of my classmates did that. two suit cases with levis, wranglers and I'm pretty sure he threw in a few bottles of Jack Daniels in for good measure. that was back in the eighties.
prolly has kids he doesn’t know about over there..
Squeeze the juice out of the ice, add yeast and wait...How do you make wine from ice?
Most of the ice wine I have tried, I haven't liked. Way too sweet for me. But there has been one or two I have liked.
Fender Pawn shop
That was one I was grilling @JIO about his favorite hummers a week or so back, like 1000 pages ago
We just use B.S. for the most part in baja Canada. My undergrad in Chemical Engineering from Cal just says Bachelor of Science.
Engineering quote of the day, “when all else fails. Get a bigger hammer.”
Isn't that the truth. We all get some of the reasoning, but we want to sound like what we sound like, not what someone who may have never heard the band play think they should sound like.
not really a fan of most either…..they can keep it along with federweisser….
I bet you could use dehydrated water with the yeast in a pinch.Hmmmm.....fermented water.
