Well, I guess it's a matter of taste and touch - I got a first-series Hall Of Fame quite a few years back, but gave it away after trying to get anything I liked out of it. It quite put me off the idea of trying subsequent iterations too: I felt the original HOF had a particular voice in my rig...

What is this "wrong" you speak of?

Some bloke named Carlos.

The fun really begins once you get out of TJ and start heading for Ensenada. We had a place in La Jolla a long way back: we used to drive south of the border, just to see how far we could get before anyone we'd dragged along with us for the ride decided it was wiser to turn around and head...

Mesas are (or at least, can be) wonderful: anyone would have to be a bit strange to get rid of one of their better efforts IMO. I'm lucky - I've got quite a few of their better efforts at my disposal, after nearly forty years of trying, buying, or passing, on everything by them that fell across...

Bin there, done that.

New member my arrrrrrrs........

Yes, the Custom 24 is quite the formidable bit of kit - mine's one of the few things I play that wasn't built here at Wyzarding Central. You should hear it through a Two Rock..... (you can back me up here Les ;)).

Alan Dingwall is my favourite of all of them :) I've got some custom-wounds by Alan on my #1 S-type, and I'll be putting his pickups into all my guitars from now on.

Hmmmmmm.......OK.............I might have enough 12-inch housings already. In fact, a 4x10 might be a more useful project - I can make it to match (size-wise, at least) my main (large-ish) 1x12 and 1x15 cabs.

Good grief - now I'll have to build myself a 4x12 too. What do you think about figured pine?

Pah! I had three speakers that I swapped around in their respective cabs just the other day, and thought nothing of it. Clue - the right power tools :) What used to be a major chore is now only a minor inconvenience. Plus: the payoff made it all worthwhile, as my MkIV is currently running its...

I do like a big Mesa (or ten....) and I'm missing my RK after reading this: time to get it back from my (much rock-ier) mate, who's had mine on long-term loan. It's true, I'm all heart :)

You're not my Peggy...... Look out, fellas It's shredding time

Sadly the MkIV is well-gigged and the TriAxis is stuck in membrane-repair limbo. Not to mention, I'm in the UK these days - Floriduh is but a distant memory. If any of you can get across the Pond, you are more than welcome to eat out of our trash cans: though we would probably invite you...

I'm embracing the Zeitgeist, and getting a Tonex to put on my grab-and-go board: it's getting a KOT, a Sunday Driver and an Ambi-Space for company.

Just some MkIIAs, a MkIVB, a Studio preamp, a Road King I, 395 and 50/50 power amps, a TriAxis, and an Electra-Dyne. Plus some cabs.....

My amp gas for this year revolves around getting all my existing amps up to spec/fully restored; in my case, that's quite a goal all by itself. The three Two Rocks are running as well/better than they have for years, as are some of the Groove Tubes pre/power amps, and the big (Zinky) Fenders...

Frog Tape! Though why anyone would want to ....ah, frog-tie the little critters is beyond me :mad:

It's going to happen, but licenses for the feed material/artists used by AI should be a source of remuneration IMO. I like to think that live improvisation over AI-written jazz/world/Americana-type backing might be fun; well, for me at least. I'd set parameters like "Changes in the style of Pat...
