OK - no fooling around now - it's time to drop the heavy homemade bombs...





take that!   

[Gene Hardage]

and now for weapon so dangerous and evil - it's never been used - it serves only as a deterrent

with 2 Altec 417 alnico's on top and coffee can 2 SRO's on the bottom it could probably go to 11

[Ned Ward]

Gene - very nice!


Here's my Bogen Challenger in action while the Tremolux is getting retubed...

[Bob Leonard]

Ned,
I need to teach you how to do the simple things yourself. Nice Bogen by the way.

[Ned Ward]

Thanks Bob - Agree I should learn to bias the amp myself, but when it comes to me and Mr. Sparky, I'm a chickenshit.... No multimeter, and with the kids not a lot of time. This is one of the things I miss from the east coast - a proper basement!

Hey Gene,

I'll trade you this nice minty never been re-coned D120F for that pair of SRO's.

As for the tilting of amps - I don't do it.  God gave me ears down by my ankles for a reason.  When using any amp with JBLs you're just gonna hurt yourself if you tilt it back.

If you aren't hurting yourself, you are hurting some of the crowd ;-(  Please point 'em where they don't hurt anyone.

Hey Gene,

There was a time when I was probably crazy enough to do that but I've got D's or E's for all my important amps right now so no need.  Besides - I might actually get a chance to use this beast if I keep doing the occasional gig for the Michael Allman Band.  I prefer my little 20-25 watt Allen's to the bigger ones now but Murphy bit me several times on this last trip.  Long narrow steep stairs for load in of everything including B3 & Leslie - check - lucky for us they had a crappy barely working underpowered crackling carpet covered improperly deployed PA run by a deaf but friendly sound dude - check - next gig was much better in the PA department but the room acoustics were brutal on stage - check - then my amp developed a crackle halfway through the night - check - Murphy was on his job.

(I think I found the crackle - noisy #1 tube and or socket - sprayed socket and replaced tube and it seems fine now)

Next up - my first Casino gig.
