Diggey Joined: Sep 23, 2007 Posts: 571 State College	Posted on Aug 28 2015 07:27 PM Dude, I'm loving this album!! One of the best I've purchased in a long time. Hoping for more in the future! Any chance you'd share what some of the gear was used on the songs? Amps, tanks, guitars? — Peace to you, not on you Last edited: Aug 28, 2015 19:28:27 Top

shivers13 Joined: Jul 29, 2009 Posts: 2605 Boss Angeles, CA	Posted on Aug 28 2015 10:12 PM Thank you very much, Diggey!! The set up for recording was... Fender of course! My gear was a'63 Olympic White Jaguar and a red re-issue Jag through a Fender tank into a '65 blackface Bandmaster. For the fuzz I used an Ed Sanner Mosrite Fuzzrite. Jeff played a Jazzmaster through a '65 Twin Reverb, and a Strat for the rhythm on a couple of songs, but mostly he used the JM. — BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! www.facebook.com/BossFink www.doublecrownrecords.com Top
Staredge Joined: Sep 27, 2008 Posts: 1149 Damascus, Maryland	Posted on Aug 29 2015 07:57 AM I teach driver's ed, and pretty much always subject my students to my music (I ain't listening to theirs!!!!). Had the CD going yesterday, and my student (17 yo female, in fact) out of the blue says "What music is this? I really like it!!! It reminds me of surfing, and the beach." Proceeded to explain the genre and who the band was. Trying to convert the youth, one kid at a time!!! — Will "You're done, once you're a surfer you're done. You're in.

That's funny; my folks were big band. I was the one listening to the Wolfman and now we're both listening to Boss Fink.

Actually Norman, the Twin was on the fritz after I spilled a beer down the back of it. I picked up a '65 Bandmaster head that I played through the Twin cabinet. Nice radio set last night by the way. Didn't catch it all, but really dug what I did hear. Top
