The Amp Garage

Oops. Meant the VP-90s.

Harmonic Design Z 90s have a great reputation.

Looks good

Yeah, that's bad. Had a friend loose a big toe to a recluse, and another on deaths door from a rattler bite. But I hate the tic worst of all. One of my older sisters has pretty much had her life ruined from Lyme disease. It's epidemic on the coasts.

I don't think it's over the top either. Pretty tasty, especially for Nashville. Am I seeing engraved neck plate screw heads, or is that reflection? Maybe that's a little over the top.

My Champ with Reverb sounds awesome at bedrooms volumes, so it can be done with tubes too.

I had the opposite reaction. I found the Celestion sounded better than the Dog in every amp I tried them in. The Celestion had big full open chimey tone. The Dog was more mid rangy and a little duller. Not that I don't like the dog. It's a great speaker and is currently in a Rocket combo.

I think I paid about $60 for the Texas Heat when I bought it from Avatar Speakers.

They are inexpensive so my expectations were low, but it's a great match for that particular amp. I don't know how it would pair...

Nice sounding amp

That lecture was like being shown a color I'd never seen before. Will dive into others tomorrow.

Listened to the first lecture. I'll be back for more. Fascinating. My understanding is that there is no documented example of an adult developing perfect pitch. Puberty seems to be the cut off point. It may be partially genetic. Asian populations have a way higher incident because pitch shifting is ...

Everything Miles said.
I have an old friend who is a career studio multi instrumentalest in LA and he says he works on his ear more than anything.

Ear training is so important and I agree that it isn't emphasized enough in musical training. I knew a singer who studied voice at Berklee in Boston. She told me one of the instructor's favorite devices was to take the class out on to the streets and have them sing the intervals on license plates. Y...
