A BluesWreck . . .

Post by gitslide »

It all started when I downloaded the Trainwreck build manual and gave it to a friend who builds amps. I though he'd enjoy reading it. A few weeks later he calls me and says "I built one." I head over to his house to try it out. I like it. He sells it to someone. I ask if he might build me one, but with a bit less gain as I'm a bluesy / jazzy player. I sourced the chassis and trannies from this forum. (thanks RJ!) His son built the cabinet, and I did all the paint work, and of course, make The Noise.

I love the cabinet. I hope you have a road case for it. It's too pretty to leave at home.

I'm not sure you *you* are thinking; I just happen to really like BLUE.

@Taylor: Yeah, I'm in Wakefield. I own an ice cream shop right downtown. Open year 'round, I do a lot of practicing guitar in the Winter. Especially last Winter!

Cool my man! I am just around the corner if you ever need anything....looks to me like you don't need any help with your cabinets though! Glad to know there is more of us around these parts. We did a Dumblefest at the jamspot in Wakefield a few weeks ago. There was some serious talent there, I was blown away. Jelle and Allyn were there but I missed them both

Man where did you find a blue maple tree around here?

Looks fantastic...those are some gorgeously figured boards there, and a beautiful job on the finish!
