Re: TR35B Amp for Sale $425/obo

I had one of those. Really nice sounding amp. But It was sold on the path to an Ampeg SB12, a truly great and continually inspiring practice/rehearsal amp, as long as it doesn't need to be moved! Best of luck on your quest.

Re: What is this "flat neck" business for Ric basses?

Raise the action a bit and stick some flats on it! Ditch that picker, grow some calluses…for goodness sake.

Re: Remember Amplifier Courtesy Outlets?

Just saw this; I hope you're enjoying your Cambridge Reverb. Thomas solid state? I still have mine, pretty minty. It sounds great! I learned about eqing mine when comparing it next to a drip face Princeton. I think the designer was really going for the UK Vox sound in that when the tone controls are...

Re: 4003 new features for 2022

Congratulations on your new Rickenbacker! Their redesigned bridge is a knock out, especially since they retained the mute. I’m not clear about the truss rod in yours, but in my experience, moving to a single dual action truss rod seems like an improvement from the one used previously. Swapping out t...

Re: New guy here...

Welcome new guy. Lawsuits are not fun. I'm not a lawyer and avoid wearing suits whenever possible. I never divorced and so can't speak to that (more lawyers and suits!). New beginnings can be a fantastic thing though, and I wish you the best. Hope you can manage to have a Rickenbacker around; just h...

Los Lobos Tomorrow Never Knows

Not a Rick in sight, but still a nice rendition of a great Beatles song:

Re: Remember Amplifier Courtesy Outlets?

I always had a hard time with newer amps that have the headphone jacks and CD inputs, etc. They always seemed so...bedroomish. Now it's easier for me to see how useful those features are for these modern times. Heck, if those types of features had been available back in the day it would have been a ...
