Jim,

When I picked up my new Carter from the shop in 2000, it had the same problem, only the washer was orange. Bud said it was a spacer used in setting up the changer. About half the washer was st ...

In 1985 I bought a 62ri mij (reissue, made in Japan) Tele for about $250. Hard to believe it's now 36 years old. It's the best guitar I've ever owned. The neck pickup went microphonic a few years ago. ...

This happened on a suitcase I once owned. I solved the problem by giving it to my daughter. She still uses it with the small inner wheel.

1982. Bought a single neck Dekley from Herb Remington. It came with two lessons from Herb. Pretty good deal. Wish I still had the Dekley.

Thanks for your keen insight. I once had a guitar player/singer tell me he liked my playing because I played simple and in tune. I didn't have the heart to tell I played simple because that was all I ...

Hey Pete, What a coincidence. I wonder if they played "I'll Fix Your Flat Tire Merle?"

Allen Peterson

Hey Ricky, I've driven up and down the Mopac a few times. Had no idea that's what is stood for. Thought it was named after an Indian tribe or something. Makes sense now.

The town of Katy was named for the K[ansas] & T[exas] Railroad. They had a depot in what is now Katy, Texas. Probably more than anyone really wanted to know.

Ah yes! Thank you for posting this.

I don't remember the name of the album, but it was Poco live in Boston.

I still have the Carter and Rains.

I also have a 1993 Twin Reissue. Never had a problem in all these years.

This Deluxe Reverb is very well made. I bought it in the box. It sounds great. The problem I had was my own doing. I transported in my trunk to a gig. Probably shook loose something in the tube.

Got my Deluxe Reverb back. One of the pre tubes had a short. Replaced both and the hiss is gone.

Allen Peterson

After messing around with it, I finally took it to Tube-Works here in Houston. I guess I'll know the verdict in a few days. I'll post the diagnosis. Thanks for all your comments. I suspect it has some ...

Thanks Lane.

Allen

Yes, I've tried both volume controls 1 to 10 and back a few times (and tone controls). It is occurring from both channels, so it's probably not a pot. Thanks for the suggestion.

My Fender Deluxe Reverb Re-issue has developed a hiss, with a slight hum and crackle when turned up over 5. This occurs in both channels, with no effects from my pedal board. Any clues to what may be ...

I ride a Trek hybrid (Metro 7500 Hybrid) three or four times a week, about 10 miles each time. Had to fix a flat Saturday. I was amazed a small staple could flatten a tire. How does a staple stay upri ...

If you can't hear the delay, why have it?

Allen Peterson

Jack, I just looked up the specs on the Blue Marvel: 7.5lbs or 3.4kg. Maybe you're thinking of a 15" speaker. I'm talking about a 12" speaker.

Allen Peterson

Jack, I don't know how much the speaker weighs, but the whole cabinet weighs 15 or 16lbs on my bathroom scale. Maybe the scale is off a little, but it can't be too far off. It's definitely less than 2 ...

Here's a cabinet with a 4ohm 12" Blue Marvel that I built. I bought an 8' 1"X10" pine board from Lowes. I had them cut it, since I do not own saws. It is covered with tolex and I bought ...
