Gruen Rolling Road Case $330 --- SOLD ---

For anyone interested in a rolling road case for a Justice ProLite, I have one up for sale. Almost new, but just too heavy for this 75 year old guy! I need split cases. The case I have is a made by Gruen specifically for the Pro Lite, but will likely fit others. $330 + shipping https://bb.steelguita...

We had a sax player sit in with us a few weeks ago and he played that song, bringing back memories for me as well. That's what gave me the inspiration to learn it. Who says an old dog can't learn new tricks! LOL

Let's make a Christmas album ...

Record an instrumental of one of your favorite Christmas songs and post a link here. We should wind up with a great playlist for Christmas!

Here's Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer to kick it off.

Cut a piece of plywood the height you need to reach the top of your amp, or do like I did and get a different stand.

I use 4 picks (thumb and 3 fingers). When someone else is soloing or filling, I usually just chunk away at chords on the low strings with my volume pedal backed down. On country tunes I might do the boom-chick thing, or a Chuck Berry rhythm on old rock'n'roll. I never felt right just sitting there ...

When pressing the A pedalon the 10th string, it is just a little flat but can't get the nylon tuner to go either direction. What procedure would correct this?

I also really like the 202 amp, especially thru a peavy black widow 1504. Same combination I use! I love carrying the 202 in to my friday night gigs and hook up and play. I have another cabinet with the 1504 so could play another gig during the week, but gigs are fewer and further between these day...

Isolation resistor value

I have a parallel output on both my guitars and run one output to the tuner. At certain frequencies around the 10th fret, I get a little distortion that disappears when I unplug the tuner. From my limited electronics background it seems that an isolation resistor of some value would likely cure this...

EHX Knockout Pedal

I have a 10-band equalizer and the EHX Knockout pedal. For $68, do yourself a favor and get one. As they say, it will make your strat sound like a les paul of a les paul sound like a strat. Much simpler than a 10-band equalizer. I have two of them as I would sure hate to be caught without one! https...
