The Amp Garage

So, Good Dirty Fun had just come out and Rick was on a tour supporting a related lessons video. We went down to Manhattan Music and watched his couple hour presentation. Let me be extremely clear. Rick Derringer plays faster than you. He can do that with no gain. You are pretending to play guitar. R...

Hello -- Wide an elasticized topic: here's one some few of y'all will appreciate. guitars, off to the Met .. The article is confusing for so many of my friends. Perry says we and us meaning the idea between him and Dirk being a team. It is what Perry has done for most of his life with Dirk's money.

I looked up their patent on the "powerscaling". Dual pot: one for regular master volume and 1 for changing the PI cathode resistor . https://patents.google.com/patent/US20130028447A1/en I gotta laugh at this. It's kinda like a lame excuse to get a patent on nothing special I guess. It serves the na...

the impact of a bed sheet is similar to being punched by a capable boxer... on meth.

Or have your sleeve be a trick.

No, I couldn't talk about it for two weeks. I threw it in the trash and went back to bed for 36 hours.

Still hurts. heh

Uhoh. I installed a 60s V guard on a guitar and walked ten feet to make coffee. It was a teeeeny bit tight around the treble pickup, not stuck, tight. Uninstalled in the 80s. They are thinner than the other guards. Ok. So the guard shatterededed itself into 5 very expensive and hyper-useless pieces ...

I like that you just did a bunch of good things and got a great result!

Cheers!

yeah the mailbox stroll can be like skydiving without a parachute..

I tried to walk it off. Did not help. Ankles still broken...


PAINS ARE GROWING!

Send that shit they used to advertise on Hee-Haw. Doans?

lol

"Wow, have you seen Miles?"
"No! Is he ok? Was he injured?"
"Nah, he just slept too long on his right shoulder.."

Just sayin'.. why is life so painful.

I used to get hurt. Now I just hurt! Don't make it stop, just make it quit!

I dare you to say that two octaves lower and loud enough to hear over the roar of the waterfall. :/

Don't be afraid to put some stuffing in there if you are playing faster/tighter things to take the R1 reflection down a couple decibels (or more) as well. This is another trick of reamp that uses or reveals the potential of the resonance and tuning. With just an average stock cabinet, hamner-on some...

So, the cabinet is sealed and I have a handle pulled out. I have installed a post that fits perfectly. I make .5in wedges and install them from two or three directions. about 1/4in of each adds to the shim depth. The only thing that can move them is age. They shrink. I have used stepped metal wedges...
