That's right Chuck. I just thinking how this thread is kinda old and we now have some folks here who could comment on this material but may have never known about the Funny Rat thread.

Oh yes indeed. There's a whole non-mainstream Jazz world that really never gets any discussion, mostly because no one knows about it, you really have to be an insider to be hip to it...

Oh yeah, I can't see to well without glasses. Now I'm in big trouble without my reading glasses too!

Look to see who contributed the most and see when they were here last. It's too bad this thread wasn't split up into individual threads about each artist...

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop, again. I wonder what this is like.

'63 Dano gtr.

the Johnny Winter Firebird.

Cute!

Islamist called Goldberg? Those are the ones that stand out on the list, so we tend to keep an eye on them. Just in case.

Suddenly I'd like to try and maybe even purchase a 15" cab. It's gotta sound good for guitar. Someday...

I never knew Dutch oppression was an issue in this day and age. It's been a while since it's been an issue in the New York metro area. .

You know what Jim...after the Moog, you probably really really really need a Mellotron. Maybe...just an idea...hey! Just think of all the moving parts that need to be serviced in one of those things. I wouldn't want one myself, but if I was you, Jim, I'm not sure I'd want one either!

Yeah, they're heavy. I should tune the Rhodes and setup a Korg MS2000 I have next to it, so I can have some of that Rhodes/Moog thing...at least before I sell the Rhodes. A friend had a Whirly...they sound so unique.

No room, in fact I should really tune my Rhodes back to 12tet and get rid of it. I could use the space, I never play it any more. Of course once I tune it, I'll start playing it again... .

I see people raving about their Agile brand on the net. When the retail store was still open, I tried out some of them and I was underwhelmed. It's almost like the bass I tried was designed from memory, as if someone saw a PBass on MTV and drew up the plans a few weeks later. The stock strings were extra-extra light so when they were tuned up to pitch, they were like rubber bands. Very strange... Carvin look nice, seem priced right. I only tried their Holdsworth Fat Boy model a few times, I wouldn't mind checking out one again.

Very cool. I'll spare you the jokes about prog-rock and gold capes. but here's the mandatory... thumbs up and one of those green smiley things. .

If a regular board member didn't generate this kind of activity, we'd have to wait for someone from outside to show up and troll. It was so much fun the last couple of weeks, then all quiet...hey, someone had to fill the void. I had to stop and try to remember who the fuck this Brian is that you're talking about...it took a second. .

Actually, I think it's going to go towards a Moog. Vintage Mini, modular or one of those new fangled Voyagers?

You could pick up one of these from Rondo for only $150! Uh oh...not quite the same thing! I see Rondo is doing their catalog fulfillment from NH. Their long time retail store was not to far from here, they were one of the big local stores before the age of Guitar Center and Sam Ash.

Wouldn't a Gibson have a shorter scale neck? Sorry, I was referring to the actual fret wires (which were tall and fat), Gibson has the small ones. OK!

Back in the late '80's I think I wanted one of these too. I might have made fun of the JEM guitars in the past, but today I think this looks pretty cool. .

Interesting comments. A friend told me her eyesight in the dark wasn't 100%. That alone scared me off.

Hey...I ain't pointing a finger at anybody. I just happened to think of that poem and decided to post it. ....still think it's a dang funny poem. .
