But come on, meat loaf had his day and his daughter is hot LOLOL
I would kill for a one hit wonder. Meat has never gotten any respect as a performer. he gave it his all. I still think it would be cool to be able to say that though.

Speaker / amp design, some have a seperate channel and speaker for a Mic , reverb ect.
To be honest, I mic my ovations up with a sound hole pick up and run right to my main rig.put it on a clean channel and dial in the verb and chorus and delay. Its up to you, do you have a amp of any kind already? get a Rp or some kind of modeling station and put it through to the amp. you will be amazed at what you can do.

Sure is.
When you talk about Lynch, I think of Philadelphia Funkadelics, even though his name was George Clinton. Don't ask. It's been a long week by any measure other than the number of days with X's on the calendar.
Who then changed their name to Parliment funkadelic. Just for a example of who George lynch is and this pick up he designed : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTLWKxx34jY
In this vid, Lynch takes Janes Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro back to school.

What is a lateral compression soundboard?
Here is all your answers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babicz_Guitars
Looks pretty neat and the idea is great as far as spreading out tension on the bridge.
"The humbucker Octane comes with Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates on the neck position and George Lynch Screamin’ Demon on the bridge position." Now this is Awesome! I have the Lynch pick up in my SG for the bridge also. Not to mention as a listed artist K.K. Downing from Judas Priest. Tiem to check out the live footage again on Diamonds and rust and see it this is the guitar he is using for the acoustic parts.
Beautifull guitars.

I spent some time on RONDO's site, and they've certainly built a great selection. They kind of remind me of where IBANEZ was back in the late-60's and early-70's. Back in the day, I had an IBANEZ Telecaster knock-off (the 2532 in the bottom RH corner of this page):
http://www.ibanez.co.jp/anniversary/exp … &now=4
Man was it heavy! The body must have been close to 2" thick. It sounded every bit as good a real one and cost a lot less .. and look at where IBANEZ has grown to today! Looks like RONDO is well on the way along that same path.
Back to the Stestbar, I've finally found a Canadian source for one so there won't be shipping, duty, customs brokerage, etc.
(http://www.lamusic.ca/Stetsbar-Stoptail … s-gold.htm).
I can't wait to get it installed and wailing!
Seek and you will find if you dig hard enough your bound to turn up something I have to wait till tomorrow to order mine (SS check arrives) I had a friend over yesterday he plays also he was really amazed with the sound of my Douglass they Rondo has some tele style guitars but I am running out of room on my walls

Neal Peart.
Not only is he a great drummer but he also writes the lyrics to most of Rush's songs. And he's written a book about travelling cross country on a motorcycle.
I never read the book or travelled cross country on a motorcycle but I hope to do both soon.
I have not read it either, but heard teh interview on NPR. he took that ride and wrote that book after his kid and then his wife died in the same year if I remember correctly. it was pretty interesting.

Re: Traveling Thomas and Brandy - another Beamer/Jets60 song (15 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I know Phill meant no harm, I just want to add a bit more.
I would not call him a tramp. he did not drink, and he did not beg of anyone I know of. He was a little bit mentally unstable in some areas, but he still could use his hands productfully when someone asked if he knew how to do anything and earned his way like that. once he was old enough to draw social security that is when he got the house. He just got overwhelmed by all the responsibility of it and did not know how to pay his bills. Its not in the song but he was able to get a riding mower and mow a few yards and it was his car till he got a electric chair. He ended up with many people who cared for him he just didnt realize it.
In the last year we now have 3 or 4 more guys walking the streets. they just showed up. My wife thinks its because we finally became a "Wet" town. (we now can sell boose and wine)
This has not stopped her from needing to try to help. She has started to befriend another older man. I told her NO MORE STRAYS. She feels guilty and its also cause her dad was on the streets for a while at one time. I dont mind helping them with some food or finding medicle care, but no longer will I allow cash to be given out.
Very happy to know I have touched so many with my words.

Beamer and Jets, I gotta tell ya, my daughter and I like it. Oh and by the way - my name is Thomas and we had an old dog named Brandy.
That is so funny! I think since your so close tothe story I should just as well let everyone know how it has actually ended.
Thomas's Brandy was a shepard mix of some type. He really did watch over him when He was sleeping under picknick tables at rest areas and kept him from getting robbed or attacked at least twice that Thomas knew of. As we got to know Thomas, brandy loved my familyalso. I am pretty sure no one could get near us if he thought it would be harmfull.
Thomas is now a ward of the state and we dont know where they have him. Its a rest home of some sort and since we were not family, no one will tell us much. What we learned was from the wife of the people who let thomas have a house to live in. (They would not take his money after the first 2 months an he used to be in construction and had really fixed a lot of the house for them untill he mixed up his meds, which he half the time refused to take or follow the doc's orders beacause if god wanted to take him it was gods choice not the doc's)
Brandy now has a good family and a little boy to watch after. The Pound at least told us that. The family was wanting a younger dog, but when they visted with brandy in the pound yard, brandy Chose them over all the other dogs.
