It is all a matter of taste ! If you go Lennon on a blonde Casino, use golden Grovers!

Have a nice day Steve !!

Beatles? Oh yeah - that's the look!

For sure - the Casino has more body balance than a G-400, but I would still go with the Klusons with the tulip buttons for a vintage look. The Klusons on my 339 pro are very good, and look great!

Cheers!

Catalinbread and Keeley are both knocking out of the park with their new pedals.

Another up and comer - Digitech.

All worth checking out - many new effect offerings, and variations on classic and OBSCURE tone makers.

I can't resist that stuff......

Dude.....

Which end do you light?

It easy drawing?

You know, there are other makes of compressors that you CAN use with a Rickenbacker guitar. :shock: I've used Keely (standard two knob and Pro) VFE White Horse, Boss, and a few others.

I just bought an original '68 Super Reverb with 4x10 speakers. I'...

To clean jack, spray cleaner on plug and work in and out of the jack. I would guess your symptoms denote something more than dirty jack. I would check all the wiring and solder connections too.

Compressor first.

Thanks for the tip, Jdog. We miss you down here in the Bay, and hope you're doing well!

I guess they never heard of....





.........or maybe were inspired by...... imitation as they say.

Back panel.

Looking forward to it....

Yeah, I was thinking the chair looked like it was taking more of a beating. Wonder what his Dad said about the walls and moulding being all chipped up?

If its a guitar - its "reliced" - but if its furniture - its "antiqued".
