About Me

We don't have gimmicks. We don't have props. We don't have tits. We don't have antics (on stage anyhow). We don't have a light show. We are probably not what your friends think is cool. We are not going to make big money. We do have some good people helping us, and we are completely dedicated to writing the best songs we possibly can. We love to rock, and we'll play for anyone who can appreciate that."To suffer woes which Hope thinks infinite;To forgive wrongs darker than death or night;To defy Power, which seems omnipotent;To love, and bear; to hope till Hope createsFrom its own wreck the thing it contemplates;Neither to change, nor falter, nor repent;This, like thy glory, Titan, is to beGood, great and joyous, beautiful and free;This is alone Life, Joy, Empire, and Victory."Percy Bysshe Shelley

Settle Down Beavis

I'm not sure where I left off. I don't think I've talked about Maple caps and P90s. Here's what I gleaned from playing the '54, which has a carved maple cap(or top) glued to the mahogany body. Maple i...

Much Swappy

Since I got those Webers 12F150s into the 4x12 cab I hadn't tried them out with my head, the Small master volume amp. See, that amp is very close to the circuit in my Victoria 4x10 Bassman clone....

Dont get bit!

I have a copy of the Who song Magic Bus on vinyl. I also at some point purchased it digitally. Regardless of any other elements of the music, there's at least one great tonal moment at the climax of t...

Pickups and Power

I made a two changes recently. Of course one never stops experimenting. Well, many of us don't. About a year ago I started using the Gibson Bustbucker Pro Bridge Humbucker. They come stock i...
