Sweet. I like collars. My family isn't into salmon.

A couple weeks ago New Seasons had a sale on halibut. Something silly like 8 or 9 bucks a pound but you had to buy a whole fish though and I don't have the room since I've already committed to a socket salmon share. But they had a bunch of the collars and trim so I picked up a big bag of those and some coho collars. I was in there today and mentioned that. Fishmonger dude hooked me up with some ling cod collars and the spine of probably a 15 pounder gratis. Fun stuff to play with.

it even has a gate! I've never played around with a gate. Just something to comp with in the living room when I need that extra sizzle. It was a b-stock factory flash sale random fly by - it's pretty cool. I'm not sure they do the combo anymore all I see is head and cab - which would be cooler but this is smaller. Has a two-button switch and padded cover.

2xEL34 50 watt Lynx, yet to break it in. The Standard 60's honeyburst color isn't my first choice but this guitar was featured in two Greg Koch videos, so i got hear it first, with ferocity (lol). I was just vacuuming some dust off it and a silver tone knob insert got sucked out - factory was probaby short on glue that day  . I put some elmers in and refixed it, et voíla. It has 9's on it. I used to play 11's. Man, I have some (tons) woodshedding ahead of me. ps the tuners are those Grover sealed metal butterbeans things- or rotomatics I guess.

ps. the guitar is ugly but has decent grain and the tone is tested/passes. I think of sanding the top, or parking it in the sun. but not of any concern...it only comes out at night. I have tonnes of stickers to plaster over it but nah. the ugly duckling. "Quack" I'll call it.

Upstairs Sunday rig.

Yo Pissy. I'm not getting that JCM 800. I see he's got it listed for a few hundred more than what he'd sell it to me for.

I made a starter yesterday morning.  Today it bloomed.  Record time for me.  I used cooled teapot water and I set it out on the porch for about 5 hrs after I put it together.  Then this morning I put it in a warm water bath.

Not in my experience.  I mean high gain and feedback happen, but my semi's don't feed back any more than my solids, that I've noticed.  And this one is like half a semi-hollow body.  

Mind you I play bass in my band, so I'm not at stage volume very often when I'm playing guitar, cuz I'm chooglin' at home.
