I was poking fun at our Canadian members. Like everyone else, I couldn't fight off tapping my foot to Turn Me Loose but normally I could get it under control before anyone saw me. I didn't realize that Loverboy was a sacred cow up there. If I buy red leather pants, a red leather jacket and a red...

Ummmm, no. Loverboy was never hip. There used to be a great player on Rig-Talk back in the day who was from Canada, "randyvansykes" was his name I think. We used to have some awesome threads where we all really gave each other a bunch of crap but had some great discussions and anytime "RVS" was...

Green Bay Packers fans.

Exactly, right? Hello? Not an uncommon occurrence as I tried to point out in my first post and was told that it couldn't have possibly happened. lol

LOL, I know it did happen. Same as happened to me. The old guys didn't embrace Van Halen just like the equivalent old guys didn't embrace Elvis or the Beatles or Hendrix etc. heck, the other guitarist in my band, was a total Van Halen/Rhoads freak too and when Yngwie came out, he drew a line in...

I'm very sorry to say that this did not happen. You think it did. But it couldn't have possibly happened. :)

I'm not trying to tell you that. I'm telling you that. The "old dudes" in this guitar shop were not into the younger, new players. They were in to the players they grew up on. The 60's guys. That's no news flash. In the exact same way I was not into the 90's stuff when younger kids would come in...

Right? Imagine the same studio walkthrough with those 4 dudes standing around instead of Henson.

And this one, I have to say, Kapo, you are from the country that gave us this:

LOL, all us 80's rockers and even the older 70's era glam guys have to admit that it is pretty damn funny that we are complaining about this kids hair or his fashion choices. If you could go into our skeleton filled closets and post pics of our worst fashion choices while trying to be in the...

As a certified old man guitar player, this thread takes me back about 40 years. I remember it being say 1982 (so I was around 15) or so and going in to my local guitar shop where there were a couple of guys who worked there that I thought were old as hell. They were probably 26-30 years old now...

For example, you go mono into a stereo chorus and out of the stereo chorus in stereo, then you go stereo into a stereo delay and out in stereo

I think it is pretty sobering when you step back and look at your gear and realize you have better gear than your heroes did when they recorded the albums that inspire you for playing and tone to this day.

I liked seeing the API mic pres on top of his recording rack.

We all knew that online buying was a loophole where we could escape sales tax and we all should have known that as soon as it was possible our politicians would close the loophole.

Anyone think Reverb and Ebay wanted to start collecting and remitting taxes to 1000's of different tax jurisdictions throughout the world? They wanted, with no increased profit to them, to take on that massive burden and hire departments of people to make it happen? Governments have forced them...

I do that at the grocery store. I go up to the produce guy and say, "hey man, bring these apples to the back door and I'll drive around and pay you cash for them."

Thanks for the 11 month old bump putting this on the front page instead of page 271 where it belonged. You had me screaming NOT AGAIN?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! until I saw that this was from February 2022.

Like others have said, I would "mod" that amp with a power attenuator and an SD-1 or a TS-9 in front or if you are a single coils strat guy, an OD250.

That Alcatrazz live tone was just phenomenal. It is so much less gain than he uses now.
