Hi Jim. There is loss of tone when you turn the big guys down so use sustain or a little distortion to get the sound "meaty" there are other terms I could use but this isn't Facebook lol.
On my previous post I meant to write amp and cab!
One of the first gigs I played with a band I used a Marshall 50 watt amp with two cabs. The other guitarist used a Vox A.C. 30 and completely drowned me out, and I was stood right Infront of my rig!!!     

yeah, led by a load of lords and generals that bought their commissions. there was a time when kings and generals had to prove themselves by leading their troops into battle. william the conqueror gave land and privileges to his knights that distinguished themselves at hastings which they handed down to their sons and so on until we come to the chinless wonders that sat miles away from the action sending brave men into suicidal charges. how the dickens did the human race survive so long?     

Peatle. As a follow on, every Thursday evening at 8pm loads of people all over the UK stand at their doorsteps and applaud the invaluable and life threatening work they do. Last night I saw something I haven't seen for many years; after the clapping people, keeping to the two metre rule, stood and chatted with neighbours! This pandemic has brought out the spirit that got us through the blitz and the cold war. Let us hope the plonkers that have their fingers poised over the nuclear buttons aren't stupid enough to push them! HOPE     

Thanks Peatle. My friend had been battling cancer for some years and bearing up to the treatments. Then suddenly one day he suffered a major heart attack and he was gone. His wife was devistated as were we all. Her friends and family gathered round and we gave him a good send off. This happened just before the outbreak so there was a good crowd at the funeral to say farewell. Funny I want to remember the good times but all that's coming is the emptiness.

Stay safe and well.     

I like it. Tells it like it is.
As a home bird I quite enjoyed the first week or so, now I'm going a little stircrazy     

And to you my friend. I can't imagine writing an up beat song to such a down beat subject, I felt quite depressed myself when I was done, but Ann has this nack of bucking me up! No not a misspell! Lol

Returning to the original subject, I've lost several good friends in the last few years so I'm well aware of the emptiness one feels. I'm hoping not to lose anymore to this pandemic.

Stay safe my friend.     

Also paintings, by kids, of unicorns. They're meant to thank and brighten up the lives of those that must work to keep us safe, or forced, isolationists alive. Big thank to our NHS, stay safe.

another cracker Grah. Just been on the doorstep, 8.00pm Thursday, organised applause for the NHS, they're doing a difficult and frightening job and they deserve all the help, gratitude and love we can give them.     

not yet. i'll have time in the morning     

Grah, I used to have a book of Goon show scripts which me and some pals used to perform in my front room, we were always hysterical laughing especially when we tried to imitate the voices.

Peatle. Ann and me have  gone into isolation too and they tell us it could be up to 3 months!!! And there's still people heading to the beaches (as we're having some good weather) and climbing Snowdon. They are told not to congregate and to keep a 2 metre space between them yet they're shoulder to shoulder on trains and stuff. My kids knock the door and leave us food parcels, I'm not sure if they're scared of giving us the bug or getting it from us...
