Widowmaker amp. Get yourself an isolation transformer

It looks like the pole pieces are adjustable, I’d try that first.

It’s too bad that Dan’s “Off White Album” (at least I think that’s what it was called) isn’t available on Spotify. It’s absolutely brilliant..but I understand why it isn’t.

I don’t think Hudson makes them. That’s a genuine Fender cover on the Stringmaster clone.
eBay is about the only place to find those things

Amen Rick. I’ll bet Buddy would have sounded wonderful on a Maverick

Probably the same as what Ricky recommended.
Dan, This is what I used on that Professional that you had for a while. It was horrible when I got it, this stuff worked great

I never met Billy Tam in person but we conversed a bit. Really great guy, I’m sorry that he is gone, I’ll miss him.
Billy has left us so I guess that makes me the last remaining steel guitar play ...

I looked at the Reverb photos and I have to say that you’ve got the cleanest first version Stringmaster that I’ve ever seen. Amazing, and at a fair price.

That’s a great guitar, whatever year it is doesn’t really matter.

Take a look at the Quilter 202. It can be used with the Quilter “dock” or an aftermarket cabinet. Great sounding and very easy to move around.

I’ve owned a bunch of both early and later Bakelite Ricks. They all sounded great, but the prewar models definitely sound better to my ears, fatter with more sustain. I may be wrong but I think that ...

Just goes to show that strings are all about marketing. Only a few manufacturers.

You might take a look at a Behringer MPA40 BT portable PA speaker
It may not fit the definition of portable but it really sounds great for a battery powered unit. Not light but definitely manageable. ...

Kettlebell swings and primal squats!

Hoffmeyers are the best, it’s all in the shape. They fit perfectly from the get go. The shape of the blade and surround is perfect. I find it funny when people that use expensive bars complain about ...

How about $40 shipped?

I think that you can buy it from Michael Scott at Scotty’s Music. His email is:
scotty@scottysmusic.com

On the re-issue, the input and outputs are on opposite sides, which makes it a pain to use with pedal steel.

He played “trumpet” on “The Boxer”, or should I say, with a trumpet.

Gimme a break Per, kinda doesn’t matter at all. Like, who cares…Fender?
It’s not like he’s trying to fool anyone.

That’s what she said

He made a few records with Joe Pass too.

The Three Suns originally recorded it, ten plus years before the Platters.
