Sad to see this ... only met Lynn a couple times, once at his home in Damascus and once in Jublitz... what a nice mild mannered gentleman he was. Prayers for his family.

Tell your friend "that was great" ... and his MSA sounds great too

I had this pristine 64 Dual Showman my Dad bought new when I was 8, in Grande Prairie Alberta. I never tried what Lee is describing, but threw a Lexicon MPX1 on it for reverb and with those D130's wh ...

I find it crazy, disappointing and regretful that even though I've had D10 almost from the beginning in the early 70's it took me decades to warm up to it. When I pushed on the AB pedals of my first ...

Pretty sure Mr Sutton played this solely from his great ear.

I almost like the Red Dunlops a bit better than the Herco's which for me just don't want to stay snug enough.

But 66 bucks for 50 Herco's doesn't seem to far out of normal price.

Roger, I believe the AB or C designation just refers to different generations of the 500, which comes in a variety of configurations ... I have a 500C, but mine is a TCA 500C 212 SuperTwin with 2-12& ...

It's in C and the second chord is D9#11. Except that it's the 5th pedal along with lowering the As.

Old P4 is probably the most redundant pedal, Dale. However, since amalgamating those two pulls, I found I had a 'spare' KL (MKV) - in any case, that A to B change sounds good with P5 so it's far from ...

Thats basically what I have on my Rittenberry Roger. The reverse 6 on my 4th pedal, and the A's going up a half on my MKV. I don't however have the A's > B anywhere since putting the reverse 6 on ...

I bought these shoes as a joke for $49 to wear at a dinner party. I also had a loud Hawaiian shirt. Lots of comments and laughs.
Great buy Winking

Good luck to you Ben, whether your time off is permanent or temporary ... You've played a long time and that will always be a part of you even if you're not playing.

He's great ... love his passion for this instrument we all love.

Snazzy!!!

That was sweet David... ya make me want to revisit myself Smile

Dang Dave, I wish I had the dough.

I like to put my volume pedal at an angle, front aiming to the right 30-45 degrees. Seems most comfortable to me.

Rich that was really good ... I admire your ability to play this type of thing. Single note lines on C6th or E9th for that matter are so much harder for me than Chords, but striving to evening the di ...

Dale - what do you attach your webcam to, in order to get that overhead POV?
This can be achieved several different ways and I've tried most of them. From a boom mic stand over my shoulder, which I ...

Dave Beaty is a GEM!!!

What Rick said ... I've used computer/iPhone/Galaxy phone/webcams/digital camera... most of them, but for me webcam is the easiest. I use QuickTime in my iMac which captures video and stores it where ...

Dale -- that's kind of you to say. When I succeed in getting an idea across, it's because I edited it 73 times, fretting about every little possible misinterpretation and confusion -- my own, include ...
