Started this band which all different guys and morphed into good players. After doing it for going on 4 years I opted to call it quits and this is the farewell to me show. Good to end on excellent terms with all the guys and got a good payday too! they have an even better guitarist to replace me as well so the band will continue on. Just got tired of all the work and responsibility of being in a band providing the pa, loading unloading gear and I have many other hobbies. Crazy dancer guy at beginning of show was cracking me up

I've had Slo 100's/30's, BE deluxe 100w, Wizard MTL hybrid and others but the 3rd power amp is perfect!

 
Blue collar man is nice. We do that. Not one you hear that often but everyone knows it

Thanks, our singer was really struggling due to a bad cold. He felt bad cause it was my last gig. Really feel like the amp cut nicely too!

Good playing man and good tones.

Last band I was in we did about two years nearly 160 shows, about half way through the last set it hit me...this was it, it's not getting any better and that band wasn't going any further. I was basically on the road from Thurs to Sunday night, I remember some club in Cinci I had to flatten my back against the wall it was hurting so bad. Get home, recoup, recharge and do it again. It was a blast but I was exhausted. That was the least amount of time I'd spent in a band but definitely the most fun and the greatest thing no drama - everybody really got along, was just time to call it.

Always good to walk away on your own terms.

Yeah. You learn a lot but fuck that. Too much fun is a job and I don’t get paid so 5-10/year. That’s all I want

I have to agree with you......That 3rd Power amp sound absolutely killer in every genre you guys were playing........Very NICE!:2thumbsup:

Thank you! I approach every genre with the same hard rock/classic metal tonal approach. Some have commented on my YT channel that I dial in all the amps to sound similar. I agree, however, only the Kitchen sink has the perfect open but raw upper mids and moded Marshall tone that suits my needs and picky ear spot on!
