How 'bout I take one of those old "stretch armstrong" toys, rip the muscle-bound arms off and glue 'em to the sides of the amp, posing like a "he man"??

That'd be cool...

Did you see the 'Pawn Stars' where Corey bought a rare Stretch Armstrong head? It was a lizard like face, the whole doll was worth $20,000, the head was worth $5,000. F yeah put one on the amp! I want a pic of that :D

Last night I converted the inputs to RCA. Yesterday I got it up around 400 watts or so. Damn thing wasn't even breaking a sweat, but I blew out the side panel on the left side CV. Fixed er up with a 3 inch deck screw, so I'm good to go there.

Today I brought back the Carver CT preamp. No EQ.. just the preamp between the Crown and my digital rig. I'm listening to the new Fu Manchu right now, and damn... if I close my eyes I can clearly see myself stage center out in the audience. Where's my lighter man?? I gotta hold it up in "salute". Each whack of the drum is going right through me. And I don't even have it close to how loud it was yesterday.

Rock n Roll man!!!

Web Police somehow quoted, without attribution (WHA??), "You're right I may be deaf, but it might just be the volume levels I'm listening to"!

But he has the soundstage out in the back yard now!
