That's a beauty @toomanycats but I just can't picture a Rocker that gigs as much as you do playing jazz.

Re: What Makes Up Your Current Gig Rig?
I don't gig anymore but when I did, depending on the venue size I used either a Messa Boogie lonestar 2x12 or a Messa Boogie Studio 22. I changed out the pedals on my pedalboard so often I can't really say what was on it other than I always had the MXR 10 band EQ on it. Again depending on the venue ...

Re: Recommend me a tuner pedal
I don't use a pedal tuner any more when I did I used a Boss TU-3. I now use a Peterson StroboClip it's a very accurate headstock clip on style and if you are not dead set on a pedal style this is a good alternative.

Re: Weekend Trip
Looks like a gorgeous place to spend a few days. That river picture could have been taken here in the Western NC mountains before I got stuck in this wheelchair I was an avid outdoorsman and trout fishing these mountain streams was one of my favorite pass times.

Re: I FOUND YOUR LUGGAGE
I've found some great deals on various things over the years @thrift shops and even Goodwill. I collect traditional knives the kind your grandfather carried. This was at a pawn shop but I bought a $150 knife for $20 I enjoy thrift shops, yard sales and such. Very cool score @toomanycats.

Re: OG 2500 DC on Reverb ( BubbaZ? )
When I had been a member of the old site for a short time I bought my PS900 from Bubba Zanetti on the exchange for $160 the only thing wrong was the nut needed replaced. Someone along it's life had used super glue/baking soda on it didn't look good but was functional. I replaced the nut as well as t...

Re: How do you do it? (Clean/dirt)
Like every person is different so is every guitar and amp so every situation would have to be approached differently. I guess In general I would probably quickly set the clean tone to something usable then bring the gain up to a usable crunch. After that IMO it would be up to right hand technique or...

Re: RIP Jimmy Buffett
Heart shut down went to the hospital for a bit and Buffet goes and dies and I just found out in this thread. Seems like ever other gig or so someone would request one of his tunes.
@tonebender I agree not a big fan of his music buy the masses loved him.

Over the years I have had some incredible gear that I have no idea what I did with. One of those peices of gear was an Echoplex Tape Delay I had in high school that was the best delay I've ever used. I used it in a band we called 74 LTD and that's the last I remember of it being in my rig and that b...

Finished buying guitars that is. I've been buying and selling and trading guitars for over 50 years and it's time to stop. I ended up with 6 electrics 2 acoustics (1 6 string 1 12 string) and a 4 string Pbass. I have no idea how many guitars I've had over the years as well as a ton of amps and now d...
