What can I say I'm an old hippie and I love the paisely cases and amps ..
I love the paisley guitar cases I have. I'd probably love the amps, too, but mine happen to be Tolex versions.
I DO remember those psychedelic Liquid Light Shows at what in the late '60s passed for concerts, and the paisley motifs on the posters for the shows. Lots of trippy paisley stuff.
I also recall that paisley was big during the Mod era; I remember having a paisley shirt with white collar, a Mod jacket, several pairs of velvet pants, and Beatle style boots for shows.
"You looked truly stoopit in that stuff."
"Nonsense! I looked unbelievably cool. And I was popular with the girls when I wore it."
"They felt sorry for you. It was a pity party."
"I wish I could go back to that kind of pity party, then."
"Still got the duds?"
"Sadly, no, though the good news is that I can still fit into the size I wore in senior year of high school, except the pants would be too short."
"Actually, the
real good news is that you no longer have that embarrassing clothing."
