tick tock.......the clock is running. THE picture is on it's way....ed

Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp. Did I mention that I still like big blonde amps?

Yes, I like everything to look bitchin'. Now, if I only had the band to go with it! Still trying to get my chops to where I can form a band.

Sigh.

this is my stage gear.
its a bit dark, but you can see it.
the strat is actually more green than it shows. its basicly a faded surf green. it looks much better in person.

Man, I really need to get a better camera...

ampeg superjet? i've got the 50 watter/reverb i just retubed with TAD 6l6gc and tung sols.

Actually, it's a 50W Reverberocket reish. Kinda wish I'd held out for a real 60's one, though. It's not a bad amp, but I really don't need all 50 watts, as I mainly play it @ home ( that and the vintage ones have tremolo).

Also, into the normal channel, with a Behringer Digital Delay, is my brand-spanking new theremin.

Great rig! Im little curious bout that theremin of yours. What model is it and how is the sound?

Thanks for admiring. I got the theremin off of ebay. The guy sells all the time, you can either type in "theremin" or "theremaniacs", and they sell for $120 USD. It doesn't have the volume coil out of the side, but if you are out of the eighteen inch range of the antenna, it stays silent, which is a small tradeoff, considering the Moog etherwave, which has the independent volume is over $200 more.

I mount mine on a small bass-drum mic stand with the 12 inch boom arm, that way it stands right at about waist height. You can buy either the mic stand mountable one, or he also sells them in tabletop/floor models that have little rubber feet. I absolutely LOVE it, and people go CRAAAAAZY over it at shows. It's just funny when you go down to reach for your beer and you hear it start cranking. I will say that a little delay makes a huge difference as well. I dropped like $25 or $30 on a Behringer delay that I just place ontop of my amp head and run to the amp input with a small patch cable.
