13 years ago, I picked up my first quality amp – an early Silverface era Fender Bassman. A few months later, I was lucky enough to come into a matching cabinet that had been separated from its original drivers long ago. I put new speakers in the cabinet (and built a new baffle for good measure...

Re: Lets see those pedal boards you are using right now. I rearranged the placement of the pedals a while back (never buy the SKB velcro rack drawer, pedals don't stick to it very well. I ended up getting a sturdy pull out shelf and Dual Lock - so much better) but the pedals themselves are...

It's been a while, eh? I've been pretty busy with work, having to move umexpectedly a few months ago, and a bunch of other ****. But I wanted to tell you about what I did this weekend. I'll keep it brief because I'm tired as hell. On Friday evening, I drove a few hours north to Chris's...

Never really been an LP guy, despite trying quite hard. So I figured if this guitar won't do it for me, no Les Paul will. 1991 40th anniversary LP. It has everything I could want in a LP - nice heavy body, black with cream plastics and gold hardware, and an ebony fretboard. I'm going to go...

How often do you tell yourself that? For only 800 bones though, I think it may be the truth, especially considering it's in mint condition. Plus, I've "needed" a combo for a long time, so there's another reason to rationalize it.

So I picked up 3 new pedals yesterday, along with 2 others last week. All told, I got: Darkglass B7K Ultra Darkglass Duality Fuzz Earthquaker Devices Grand Orbiter Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl Pandamidi Future Impact (think Akai Deep Impact 2.0) So yeah, its been a busy week for me in the bass...

I picked this up on Thursday but just got around to taking good pics a few minutes ago. I've always loved the look of explorers, but they feel too big on my shoulders. So when I saw a USA made mini explorer with body, neck, and headstock binding and this beautiful finish, I couldn't say no...

Megastack. From bottom to top: Avatar contemporary 4x12 w/ V30/GB mix Mesa half back 4x12 w/ C90/Black Shadow Vintage mix Egnater SW45 Mesa Mark IIB Coliseum

What's going on, guys? Its been a while since I checked in. I actually got a new job a few months ago. I'm now working as a legal assistant in a large law firm, and due to that, I've got noticeably more spending money. So I decided to treat myself to a few things. I just picked up this bad boy...

I've been jonesing for a fuzz for a while. I sold off my Analogman Sunface because it wasn't getting used, and I was down to only two fuzzes (a Basic Audio Tri/Ram Muff and a Trombetta Bone Machine - not nearly enough fuzz for me) so I decided to spring for something really cool. So when I found...

Out goes the Stiletto Ace combo, in comes the Mark IIB Coliseum head. 180W of all American wallop, powered by 6 6L6s. It looks awesome on my avatar under my Space Echo.

But I've wanted one of these forever, so it's worth it. Plus, I've been feeling crappy lately, so how better to feel better than to buy something awesome? It's in perfect functional condition and 9/10 cosmetic condition. I'm so happy. It will look amazing paired with my reverb unit.

This is probably my best refinish work yet. Unfortunately, I don't have the money right now to put anything in it, so it's just a vanity piece at the moment. I'm currently unsure what's even going to go in it. But whatever fuzz/wah combo I go with, it will be awesome.

Much sexy. So matching. Wow. I commissioned this a while back to serve two functions - to fit in my mono bag, which securely attaches to my matching mono gig bag, and to match my amp. Well, it works on both counts. I think it looks sexy as hell, and it's not bad functionally either. It's...

I really need to stop going to guitar center to "not buy anything." 1985 Ibanez PL1550. It looks to be all stock and even comes with the trem arm. I'd say it's in 8.5 condition. It plays and sounds like a mofo, and here's the kicker... It only cost $250. I have to sell my 62RI to buy it...
