Thanks for the compliment! It was a refinish that Duane Marrs and Jeff Surratt did for me about 3 years ago. It's got the Marrs changer on it also.

Cheers!

Bill Moore,

Nice horns!

Ah yes, Manchester, I am originally from Howell. I made a few trips to Rosetties back in the day, right hand pattern if my memory serves me correctly. (wich it doesn't always) I used to also frequent the Palomino, and the Black Sheep. Those joints probably don't exist anymore.

John, the area around Manchester is looking a little suburban these days. I live a few miles west of town. The former Palomino is a restaurant now, likewise the Black Sheep, no music. Rosetties is still operating, in the summer there are a lot of sailplanes there.

Kenny,

These are great amps, the sound is pretty close to the old ones. It sounds very much like my old silverface DeLuxe.

Chris,

Duane Marrs did the renovation of the undercarriage with all new parts. It was in bad shape when I got it. Duane brought it back to life!
