Ordered a sweet small box cab from mojotone in that black western style on a few custom bogners. 

 

At this point I have 850 into it with tubes.

 

It's crazy, I wake up thinking about the circuit. Shit is in my head.

Closer to metal nirvana.

Maybe tomorrow. 

 

Then  I am takin mustained's job. Look out, I  know kung-fu.

looks good. has it been a tough build?

slab

It's alive. I had some input jack issues and a bad jj 34 out of the box, which freaked me out, because it blew a fuse.

 

After some head scratching,  I put it back together tonight and it's glorious. No brutes but sick 80s gold.

 

Gotta a bunch of pedals and will post lame video soon. No gaps will be seen.

Cab will be here Friday and sweet clip to come.  I love this thing. Haven't even put a pedal into it yet.

Awesome dood, congrats.  I would never imagine having the patience to build a head.

Thanks Mr funk.

 

It was a bucket list deal,  and I learned a lot about my inner feelings. 

 

And I am not gonna ride a bull named fu Manchu.

That's really cool! Did you have to plot out the circuit on a piece of paper or anything so you can chase the loose queertrons? 

I've worked on wiring for aircraft and I just don't have the gift of patience to trace those stray and bleeding signals. Our instructor called those weird ones "queertrons".

All the groundwork was done, years ago. No lives were ever at risk.

 

Hellz yeah. 

 

slab

Lol, I am on call right now,  but 4th of July clip soon. 

slab

Still out of town. 

 

Back tomorrow, I hope.

Well, the hag moved out, and I've been down in the oil field on project...

 

Life is kicking my ass lately, haven't touched a fiddle in weeks.,but thank you for thinking of me flipper.
