My current Professional and a new Standel amp.

Chas, I'll second that, but only if The Professional went through Duanne Marr's shop first!

IF YOU COULD HAVE ONLY ONE STEEL AN ONE AMP TO PLAY FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS, WHAT WOULD IT BE (no effects allowed)?

What I have now, a Zum S-12 and a GD Walker amp system. Wouldn't mind havin' a little more talent though.

I'll take what Al Marcus is having.

One of them space age MSA's and a Walker Stero Amp. I had to edit this to add i'd have to have two MSA's....one to play and one to look at.

First day i'd probably have all the windows blowed out of the house.

(Hi, 'Earnest'...)

With reference to my earlier 'post' (the 'big and fat' one):
We called our band 'FATSO' - it really wasn't because a couple of us (Billy Bremner and I) were on the chunky side, but because we thought it would attract attention; in retrospect, though, maybe it WAS a subliminal 'cry for help'.

Remember, Doug, that you too were a 'Fatso' for one night (I can't recall the name of the club in London's West End); you 'subbed' for Billy when he was taken drunk and fell down, breaking his arm!

What a lovely job you did for us.....

Okay, 64 Emmons with Evans amp. But I respectfully protest having to choose only one... I mean, this IS America, right?

Thanks Herb: For some strange reason I felt I knew the answer. I did'nt mention my choice. EMMONS AND FENDER TWIN I might change my mind if I ever tried an Evans but I'm not going to spend a Thousand to find out. I've has a truck load of amps but nothing comes close to pleasing MY ear as the Fender. Eddie

Talent is overrated, it's not what you play, it's how you play it.

Emmons PP and Evans. Wish I had an Evans....
