This weekend in LA. Who's going to see George's new creation???

Me!

Oh wait, I have a room there with my stuff already.

Hot dogs and Tecates????????????????????

Is your LP build gonna be there, Jim?

No, no, and maybe.

Hey fellers, how about an amp report. Anything stand out? Any surprises?
Drop by Retro King and check out Chuck Dean's 18 watter and tell us what you think.

And have a great time!

The Metro-Plex ROCKS!!!!!

And solodallas' Schaefer Diversity replicator is a KILLER pedal. Not just for great AC/DC tones either.

The usual host of great players coming through, Steve Stephens, Phil X and Pete Thorn. Steve and Phil ripping on Dave Freidmans killer amps. First time I got to see one of his famous RackSystems in person as well. Impeccable workmanship.

Jim ScumBack and Jim Wagners (WCR pickups) room was SRO all day Sat. There were more cabs in that room than a Hendrix stage set up!

Jerry at Surreal had an insane gain 50 watter. There was a metal guy ripping it to shreds when I stopped by to say hi. Jerry is also working with Tone Bakery on pedals and had a Klon clone that sounded dead on to me when he A/B'd it with a real silver Klon. and only $99!!! Screw that $1500+ real Klon insanity.

I was really impressed with the new Maganatones as well.

And of course, finally making an appearance Sat afternoon..the one and only crazy Rheinhold Bognar....

Thanks for the coverage Chief. Gave me a few things to look at and think about.
Sounds like a great time.

Pick up any licks from those guys??

Can i post a vid?
Ill do it anyways and mod can just dump it if need be.
18 watter ..Had a great time. Great to see George and Mike and the usual characters.

sure wish all the sites used the same prtocall. hhhhmmm? what am I doing wrong now?

How did I miss that sweet 18 watter, JD???

BTW, think I need a Creme Brulee...got any handy?

I really, really wanted to make it, but I bit off way more than I could chew that weekend.

Absolutely, positively next year for sure. I promised George I'd bring a '54 Strat next time I saw him . . .
