LOL. That’s him. He says he’s having so much fun saying some of the most outrageous things. And sometimes he does it just to mess with people.

Waaaaaaay back in 1980, when I was in a Jr. High band, my buddy had a 72 (ish) Tele, with the twin humbuckers and the large headstock. I coveted that guitar, as I was playing a cheapy Aria Pro 2 Les Paul knockoff (but I worked my butt off over the summer to save the money to buy it, so it was a prized possession).

I'd like to lay hands on a Tele at some point, but I'd probably have to get rid of my MIM Strat and/or my Ibanez RG to make room for it. The MIM Strat wouldn't be so hard to let go of, but the Ibanez has a great neck for shredding, and I don't really want to part ways with it.

I love how versatile the AC-30 is...crystal clear all the way to roaring crunch ala Foo Fighters. Years back, when I was living in Nashville, I saw a guy jamming one week with his blues band, playing Hendrix through an AC-30. Next week he was with his grunge/metal band, playing Soundgarden and STP through the same 30. I want one!

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

It’s a Fender Mustang “Modeling Amp” which means i can set it on “Bassman” and play my bass through it as well as the les on several different settings.
It was cheap, but very powerful and versatile for what i use it for. It can’t stand up to a drum set though.
