Dear Abby...

Dear Abby...

I think my wife is cheating on me. I am a working musician and, as

you would expect, travel a lot. I have been noticing strange things

happening when I get home. Her mobile phone rings and she steps

outside to answer it or she says, "I'll call you back later". When I

ask her who called she gets evasive.

Sometimes she goes out with friends but comes home late, getting

dropped off around the corner and walking the rest of the way.

I once picked up the extension while she was on the phone and she got

very angry.

A buddy of mine plays guitar in a band. He told me that my wife and

some guy have been to his gigs.

He wanted to borrow my guitar amp. That's when I got the idea to find

out for myself what was really happening. I said "sure, you can use

my amp but I want to hide behind it and the gig and see if she comes

into the venue and who she comes in with". He agreed.

Saturday night came and I slipped behind my Marshall JCM800 half stack

to get a good view. I could feel the heat coming off the back of the

amp. It was at that moment, crouching down behind the amp, that I

noticed that one of the tubes was not glowing as bright as the other 3.

Is this something I can fix myself or do need to take it to a

technician?

Thanks

once my girlfriend showed me some holiday photos from before we knew, and accidentally on one photo, taken many miles from home (at the central station in Munich) I spotted (definitely) one of my best friend's (guitar player) girlfriend (who i strongly dislike) and you could not exactly tell whether she was kissing that guy who stood very close beside her; 4 years have gone by, they are still together and i still haven't showed him the photo, and maybe it's just because he knows nobody likes her,

I was watching some country music channel last night and they had some hot artist named Taylor Swift who was really beautiful, she had an acoustic guitar with this amazing grain to the top. But I never caught who made it. Really beautiful guitar, but she just kept going on about her self and they never really showed the headstock so I could find out who made the dam guitar. I'm guessing it was a Koa top by Taylor, but can't be sure.

I mean...what the hell were they thinking?

That's great! Thanks for the bump - missed it last time.

Yeah, but I still have this crisis about the Koa top acoustic.
