    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    Angled switch in a tele? What kind of monster are you??? That's pretty cool, actually. I didn't think it would be possible. The color slays me. I must have been a muskie in a former life.

    PedalPCB Cobalt Drive rat-rod/Blues Driver Top 3

    Not a fan of distressed guitars normally but on a pedal enclosure this looks quite nicely half-beaten-to-death. I like it.

    Supro vs Matchless

    Not quite sure I see the logic of demoing a pedal like you're auditioning for a praise band. I think with that much ambience slathered on it could be a Hot Rod Deluxe :) . Probably a lovely sounding pedal though...

    Any new concerts you're looking forward to (formerly 2023 concerts)

    Sorry to go all OG on everyone but really stoked to see Robin Trower in St Charles (Chicago) in October. I've seen him about 8 times so nothing new but he's one of the reasons I play in the first place.

    EQD Acapulco Gold: "Acapulco Goldfinch"

    I always love your artwork but this is definitely my fave. Don’t think we get finches that colorful in Illinois.

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    That neck pickup looks like the old Bill Lawrence buckers from the L6S. Always liked how clean they look.

    2K?? Ouch. On the other hand FUCK old age. I'm only a couple of trips around the sun behind you. You take care of yourself and do what makes you happy. You're sure as hell not taking it with you. And good on you for taking care of the fam. On the other hand if I tossed $13K on new gear my...

    IC Sockets

    I just assume you have to tweak the legs and oh lawdy I've buggered up my fair share of IC's trying to "do the right thing" but I'm thinking of all the zillions of IC's I've inserted I've only broken the legs off of a few and I'm so cheap I just soldered on cheaters. I think I might own an "IC...

    IC Sockets

    Wait…am I the only one that has NEVER had an issue with leaf sockets? Well I sat on one once but will consider that a separate issue.

    2nd chance at romance PPCB, AionFx, Aleph Null builds

    I've built 3 or 4 of the Lumitrons because everyone that played it had to have it. I also respect the fact that you went to about the same amount of effort to remove flux as I did. Love the white boards but... That white hammered enclosure looks crazy nice with the gold knobs.

    What's your current headache?

    Some folks have a tough time adjusting to having a hose strapped to your face but give it time if it bothers you. It made such a drastic difference to how I sleep that the minor inconvenience that I still deal with is just that...minor. Wouldn't consider sleeping without it now and my wife...

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    Us boomers know some stuff. I went the other way and my old Yamaha is about the weight of a tennis racquet so still using a skinny strap. Damn fine looking LP there. We took in a Gibson "Greeny" at the store a few weeks ago, and although I love the relatively comfortable weight and the war...

    Trying to get a very old amp OD sound..

    Chet Atkins used to get a great warm clipped sound on early albums like Hi Fidelity but not sure if it was amp or recording or both.
