I have a Lunchbox, I use it for small club gigs with a Tele, or a 6-string lap steel, going through a Boss ME50. Probably a bit lightweight for a PSG.I usually run the volume full up and the gain abou ...

All valid points, I don't know if the tech pulled the chassis out or not. I've worked on point to point amps,replacing components etc. but I'm too clumsy to start messing around PC boards. I'll mentio ...

I have a DeLuxe Reverb reissue I bought in 2007, it's now in the shop for a recurring problem with the signal dropping in level as much as 20 db, then returning to normal after a minute or so. Tried c ...

I tried to download the Cleartune tuner on my Android phone, everything was going great until they asked me for a promo code. Couldn't find one anywhere-can anyone help me with this?

Happy Birthday Buddy from Nova Scotia Canada--I saw you here many years ago with Ray Price.

I have one of these amps, use it for steel (have to mike it though). I like the fact that you can drive it into light distortion quite easily. I missed the Mid control that I used to have on the Super ...

I had a Nasville 400, sold it because of the weight; I wonder if I'd have been better off to put a Sica speaker in it and kept it. It had the black corners, don't think it had any mods, but it was a g ...

Just turned 70 September 2011. Still love to play but the equipment gets heavier every day Sad

.

Thanks, guys--I agree re the PC boards; I changed a tube, I have a tube tester, and I'll see how it goes. I won't check the solder joints, I'll get someone to do it.

Too right,mate,and you can't turn the plug upside down either Sad

My DeLuxe reissue will drop in level once in a while, almost to the point of losing signal then come back up again. I've changed output tubes and some other tubes, wondering now if it's another compon ...

Kayton plays with so much joy! Hope to see him this summer at the Hank Snow Tribute in Bridgewater Nova Scotia Canada

Now THAT guitar would be an easy conversion to lefthanded--not easy with nonpedal steels.

One thing that helps, if the singer plays rhe has to do is srtum the chord--I have perfect pitch and can hear which key it is.

When you yell across the stage, "what key", someone usually yells back something or other, however, except for "A" and "F", they all sound alike Sad

. If only we could al ...

Interesting comments by all- Herby is right about the multi-intrumental players--it's kind of like insurance. In his case, he stuck to the one instrument, and it paid off in this way--he's one of the ...

Paul, Are you playing with Vince at the Casino New Brunswick in Moncton New Brunswick? Hope so, bring any steel you like Winking

No matter how well you play, the journey is as much fun as reaching the destination IMHO

All I have for C6th is an old 6-string lap steel--never gonna get all those chords with that, but I can dream--living with a single neck E9th. If you only saw Curly on Hee Haw, you may never realize w ...

I bought a Tri-State lap steel a few months ago, it plays great, looks like something from the '40's except the pickup is a humbucker, looks like it was added later. Has anyone ever seen one, or know ...

Just got hold of an old TriState 6string lap steel, tuned it to C6h,CEGACE low to high, having a great time with it. The pedal steel is too heavy to bring everywhere, soi justy plug the lap steel into ...

Happy Birthday, George, from all us East Coasters--have a great day and enjoy your lunch at the Royal Fork Winking

Saw one of these at a barbershop the other day, the barber was owed some money by someone and he got the steel as payment--I'm lefthanded so I couldn't really tell how it sounded, but it seemed pretty ...

Stage right, so my good ear can hear everybody else. Also the guitar player usually sets up there and I can hear him off the stage, and stay out of his way when necessary Winking

My good friend George Keoki Lake has a Tradewinds dual 8 that fits in a suitcase, I think the builder is Elva West in California.
