| Photo credits to Keitha - same one who took all the G8rBowl and guitar pics I posted on the gathering section. She's the Templeman of photography. |

| Love it. Strung it yesterday after a good cleaning, sprayed the pots, tweaked the intonation. Played it tonight quite a bit. Nice tone, great sustain. |

| Nope, just bent the pin inward a bit. All the solder joints are intact. |

Location: Flahdaw | While I was in possession of this beauty (not Keitha, the Viper)I had asked Iffy to come by and take a look at the guitar because of the jack issue. We took it apart and couldn't really find any obvious problem, but Iffy resoldered the thing, thinking it couldn't hurt. Glad you got it working to your satisfaction.
Keitha really is a good photographer |

| So that's why the solder joints looked so clean. Iffy, you do good work, thanks. Mine always look like a drunken palsy victim did them. |

If you look hard and long, you might be able to find one of the Woody Junior models out of the custom shop from the early 90's. Its bubinga wood cabinet looks cool in most living rooms. |

| Had a very brief look at her portfolio.
Great composition, lighting, mood and the images speak beyond what's in the frame.
Haven't seen anything as good as those for awhile. |

Serge, try a SansAmp Character pedal, probably the Blonde (which models Fender Amps) or there's the Liverpool (Vox) Brtish (Marshall) and California (Mesa Boogie) They'll give you a convincing clean/crunch/dirty electric guitar tone through the Shen or through a PA without having to buy a whole new rig. I use A SansAmp Blonde live for Lap Steel, and all the Lap Steel parts on the album were done with that pedal. Less bells and whistles than a POD, but 100% analog, and much better sounding in my opinion.
Sans Amp Character Series |
