Wow. That's very groovy!
Beautiful studio. Not hardly a parallel surface. (= beautiful acoustics)
Wish I could have been in that audience. Must have been a real treat!
Thanks for sharing this.

And a Blessed Thanksgiving and holiday season to all!

Thanks, I might be able to top that though....remember the little bluesmaster combo I made? the cream one form the peavey donor amp. I sold that to a friend and we've just used it on a track with Ringo Starr playing drums :D nice bit of history for me to have played with Ringo :D

that little combo sounds amazing.

Marcus these are incredible stories! Congrats!

Just curious, which is your favourite, the bluesmaster or the #102?

they're both great amps.

the BM combo I ended up tweaking and putting LNFB on a switch, something the original doesn't have, but it adds a nice 'fenderyness' when engaged. The BM has a more sparkly clean if that's your thing :D The OD on the bluesmaster can be more 'rock' if that's your thing too.

I'd be happy to have either. At the moment I don't have a BM, I have a Chassis and boards though from Taylor and a nice set of vintage 80's peavey USA transformers so if and when I get round to building I've a feeling it will be BM :D

joey, just borrowed the BLuesmaster when he was here.

We did talk about a build but he's now gone with Two rock who are setting him up with something.
