Re: a wee little pic

I like the name "Caitlin"

Stupid Question of the Day: Since I've never been close enough to actually touch a real tube amp - is it normal for "On" to be down and "Off" to be up?
 
Re: a wee little pic

Teh control panel will face up on a tweed style amp. THe on position is relative to the forward face of the amp.

But there is actually precedence for on to be down. It really doesn't matter as long as the light lights up when the switch goes one way or the other. :)
 
Re: a wee little pic

This would be that "certain amp" wouldn't it, don't feel guilty at all leaving us hanging like this? Were all ready all tense Namm.
anyway Looks pretty sweet.
i heard about you getting stuck. Its a bummer bought the freeze, there is a serious lack of oranges up here in alasaka.

P.S try to island hop to the big island and check out Kona while you are in hawaii. There is alot more small town feel there, much more relaxing than honalulu. Hilo is really rainy and probably isnt worth the drive, also if you go to kona take an ipod, the radio statons are crap, there is one good 60's 70's rock station, its something like 104.7 or 105.9 they play good music but the reception is sketchey, the Beaches are pretty good, Spencer Park is pretty good but there are no waves at all, Manua Kea Resort has a great beach but there are only 30 public parking spots so you have to get there about 9:00 in the morning, the waves are eccelent and there is a bar and restaurant at the resort. Close to Manua Kea is Hapuna Beach, it has very big waves and a huge long flat beach, there is some great body surfing and boogie boarding at both hapuna and manua kea. I have been to hawaii quite a few times (my dad gets lots of Flyer Miles) i would definately recomend a trip to Kona.

Have fun

Nice. I really like that green, even though its not how it really looks. That lighter green would make a nice front panel color also.

Here's the enclosure:

I know the guy who's getting this, and all I can say is he's one devastatingly handsome fellow with a rapier-sharp wit and mad skillz on six strings. ;)

KGM, it's hard to maintain the tease when you go all Briteny Spears on me... ;)
 
Re: a wee little pic

since Britney gave up the cooter, I guess I'll show the rest of Caitlin.
