Yo Jake-o, In the first wave of Surf, Eddie Bertrand used a Bandmaster.........'nuf said. For what it's worth, Ole Edward J here has a gaggle of dem Bandmasters. They have become my first choice. I just line up as many as it takes to get the job done. (Oh yeah, I don't discrimate either, I have five Showmans as well). ed —Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp. Did I mention that I still like big blonde amps? |

I was speaking completely tongue in cheek! I'm a bassman person myself. There is just too much of an 'only a showman will do the trick' ethos around here. |

Believe Me..I collect em' better than I play em' so the fact that this is a Japanese Fillmore really doesn't bother me, especially when I gaze upon its beautiful metallic blue finish. |

Main rig, practice rig, gig rig (yeah, right)....ONLY rig!!!! Guitar is a Squier Deluxe in Daphne Blue. LOVE this color. 2nd only to Surf Green. I know the Marshall isn't 'surf', but A) it was FREE!!!!...and B) it does have spring reverb. —Will "You're done, once you're a surfer you're done. You're in. It's like the mob or something.

That is a surfy lookin color indeed, Staredge... so, my main/only guitar (a 2008 HW1 strat w/ various mods), a 59 Bassman LTD RI which just came down the chimney today, and a 63 RI tank w/ tube & cap mods. I'm trying to be on my best behavior this year so Mrs. Claus brings me another strat or JM/jag next time. — |

New guy here... I've got a mess of pedals coming in, but here's my stuff.
I want less sustain. My notes are so tortured it seems only humane to let them die as quickly as possible. |
