    Grace under fire....

    She and you have been an inspiration and a profile in courage in the face of adversity for so many of us on the forum. You and her will never die. You just change location. God bless y'all.

    Amps you sold but should have kept

    Gibson Skylark I gave to a friend. Stupid. '78 Vibro Champ I loaned to a guitar player friend of mine. Never got it back. More the stupid. Then again. Musicians. We play music. But we aren't always that smart.

    Heard 2nd hand that one of our members reported passed away - Dan Duntze (bluesforstevie)? Any confirmation of this?

    I don't want to believe it. I conversed with him on the phone a few times. Even had a very pleasant conversation with his mom Murrieta before she died. A very sweet woman and raised a very sweet son. Bought some nos tubes from him and helped him out when things went south for him. He had...

    If you could only have one amp one guitar and no pedals. What is it?

    Doesn't have to be a Gibson. For me its a '54 GT and a 5e3. Beat that y'all!

    The best theme song ever.

    Is Hawaii Five O. I grew up with Combat and Vic Morrow, Twelve O'Clock High, Dragnet, Wagon Train and so many others. But this was my favorite. The best turn around in the history of television or film. Jack Lord rocked! <iframe width="560" height="315"...
