Anything else you'd like to add.

I have a sense of humour that pisses people off until they get to know me at which point they love me. Women desire me even though I'm ugly because they know I'll treat them like whores and deep down that's what they really want. When I stay in a hotel I always hide my toothbrush so that the maid doesn't use it to clean the toilet while I'm out.

That pretty much covers it.

LOL, I have an earl seventies Fender Bandmaster reverb top which could use some tender care and new tubes, I wish I had a Slambango in my neighborhood! book

eddy-

tubes are easy enough! I don't know if you are handy with a soldering iron but it probably needs a few new caps. Sometimes it is good to leave it on for a while when it hasn't been used so the electrolytics can charge up again. Anyway, if you need help on something don't hesitate to email. I have 20 amps myself plus tube stereo gear so, while i bet slam knows a lot more than i do, I have diagnosed my share of amp problems in my life. book

Started playing this game at the ripe old age of 26. In that time I married, had three kids, divorced, raised said kids into young adults solo, and became a grandpap. Along the way I took several long breaks from the game but have been back for a bit now.
