yeah - its been a goose bumpy kind of month

that picture I posted - thats ERIC CLAPTON standing 20 feet from an amp I built! In my apartment - with my cat sleeping next to me on my steel seat... what a trip!

Tim,
Does your steel amp have an effects send return loop on it? If not, is this something you might add?

[Tim Marcus]

Richard - yes, I can add one.

Another forum member requested a steel amp with the effects loop - it will have a bypass switch so that when you are not using it, its completely out of circuit.

The effect loop I use has a low impedance driver and is active (meaning there is more to it than just a wire from the preamp and back in) - should play nice with just about any solid state equipment.

Tim - Wise decision to use the Telonics speakers - I put a 15" in my Sideman a few weeks ago and it still makes me smile every time I flip the switch . . Made a great amp even better . .
Can you teach the cat to solder ?

nah, she mostly just hangs out on my steel seat and gives me the "why are you paying attention to something else" look
