Corey_Y Joined: Dec 30, 2015 Posts: 162 Poland, Ohio	Posted on Dec 30 2015 05:47 PM Hey everyone, first post here. I just recently got back into listening to a lot of surf rock in the last year. I used to listen to a lot of instrumental surf rock, rockabilly, psychobilly and garage rock in the 90's, mostly been playing heavy downtuned fuzzy rock for the past 15 years though. After my renaissance of reverb and a lot of lurking over the past year, a friend gave me back an Strat that I sold him year ago as a birthday present and I got inspired to venture into playing a bit for myself. I'm primarily a bassist, so my guitar skills are a bit rusty. Also, since I've got a toddler...no money for a tube driven spring reverb unit yet. .....yet.... I look forward to bugging all of you with the same questions you've read 1000 times and pestering you to listen to home demo clips. Top

JCStilley Joined: Jan 28, 2016 Posts: 37 Omaha, NE.	Posted on Jan 28 2016 01:48 PM Hey everybody! My name is Jonathan, and I'm a recent surf guitar addict. I've been a huge Beach Boys fan since I was about 10 years old. But with all due respect, I wanted to get deeper into surf music. And now, Day At The Beach is one of my favorite stations on IHeart Radio. Equipment-wise, I currently have a Marshall MGCD-10 amp. I also have a cheap strat kit that has been in mothballs for several years. But I plan on replacing the neck and repainting it to bring her back to life. Looking forward to hanging with you all. Top

JoeKinetic Joined: Feb 04, 2016 Posts: 51 Ireland	Posted on Feb 04 2016 08:53 AM Hi Folks Joe Kinetic here in sunny Ireland. Been playing about 35 years, mostly Blues and Rock with some Trad thrown in, been surfing (badly) for about 25 years, from the early days in Ireland and always liked the music. At long last have joined a bass player and drummer and are now working up a set to start doing a few pub gigs. Doing a mix of the classics with some modern and hope to throw a few originals in. I play a Strat through a Blues Deluxe RI and have more pedals than is healthy. I've currently downsized my board to mostly micro pedals but am debating whether to buy the Topanga, Flint or Surfybear. Thanks to all who advise and spend time reviewing gear and offering advice on this site. I'll let you know when the band gets up and running with a name, maybe get to play with a few Irish/UK bands in the near future. Cheers JK Top

remora1 Joined: Jan 04, 2008 Posts: 1277 San Pedro, CA	Posted on Feb 04 2016 09:20 AM Welcome Joe, looking forward to hearing your new band! Nothing beats a good tube-driven tank, but the Surfy Bear is a fun project that will get you some great results - to my ears better than any pedal and cheaper than most. Good luck! — Bill S._______ HELLDIVER on Facebook Top

As for music - Get yourself to Livorno in Italy for Surfer Joe festival. Three days of surf music. Maybe see you there... — http://thewaterboarders.bandcamp.com/ Top

Thanks for the welcome guys. I would love a tank remora 1 but they're very rare second hand here and a new one is about the same price as a used TR, I'll get the TR first and hope that a tank turns up sometime! Top
