looks like things may start calming down later tonight...but fuck i am bored of staying in a hotel all day, wi-fi has been sketchy and been watching BBC, CNN and a few music channels...positive note, i've watched a lot of pop music, which i hardly ever watch...and i can say safely that i haven't missed out on anything...the worst thing i saw was Avril Lavine's new song about Hello Kitty...some japanese themed song that is cringe worthy! Also, noticed that Pharrel Williams is on every second pop song...that guy must be raking it in!

Yeah, so this happened:



1974 SG-II. Early birthday present, since it's my birth year and all.

Yup...give me all the gear while we're at it.

I was gonna say, that Orange cab just looks like someone painted an ACC 408. They're sweet amps, but only with the right drivers. I'm ambivalent about them, they can sound really good, but total overkill for a tone you can get with a lot of newer stuff now for half the weight and more volume. They're still sweet in their own right though, overkill isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Yea my buddy Josh does vocals for them. I used to talk with him all the time on a different message board and booked a show that sucked for his old band Quell. Great band.




That 408.... mmmmm mmmmmm good

So I was close when I posted that Purple....which is essentially the same thing, but purple.

We were talking about the science behind those the other night, but I don't think we got down to the nitty gritty of what the two facing speakers actually do.
My guess is that, depending on the phase of the wiring you go for, they act together to push those stupid low frequencies from one speaker face into the other and then blast that out the port under a large amount of pressure, projecting the sound and cutting through cleaner.
Which would have been ideal back in the days before everything got mic'd and DI'd etc.
I should google shit before I post.

Also rad cab. Happy for youse guys

Quoth my wife: "Boy, I hope I can look at that guitar without thinking 'insta-jizz' from now on...."

Skip: The taller one is a straight up 4x15, the shorter one is essentially the 408 (two frontwards, two facing each other).
I should have posted the info/blurb that came with it from the planetoftheamps page it came off.
So, my derp.

No dice on the leaf vinyl, but what about stripping it, sanding it back smooth and making some stencils to do layers of green leaf stains?
