It's awesome. 20 tube watts and I played bass through it with a drummer and it wasn't even at 50%. Sounds great, too.

They're playing a lot of George Clinton/Parliament/Funkadelic at the Suns game, tonight.

Chicago sports fans, I have a question. We had a satellite dish in the late 90s and I used to watch this sports show on WGN. It was hosted by some cranky old guy? What was it?

Yeah, it's an old trend Trend combo that I gutted and put a 12" speaker into. Gets the job done.

A friend of mine did. Designed it, too. After years of using pretty shitty amps I finally have something nice.

You listen to him in '57-'58 and the transformation is remarkable.

Air Lore is so fucking good. The Blythe is interesting, Abdul Wadud on cello. The guitar player reminds me too much of a better version of myself to really enjoy him. Very different takes on Monk tunes. Good record. A Fickle Sonance is a classic. It even features a Monk tune stolen by Sonny Clark.

That time I did but then of course it pushes something the 4th and 5ths on B and G out. I think I generally go about 10 cents flat on the B so there's some equilibrium there. What a pain in the ass, lol. But once you hear a just 3rd you can never un-hear it.

I always tune by ear because of this. One day a while back I checked it after with a tuner and I had been tuning my B string about 14 cents flat. It's a real balancing act to get a guitar to be kind of in tune but you have to have a pretty decent ear.

He's been up and down this year but mostly been pretty good. Celebrini, though. My goodness.

I haven't been watching the game, I just got home not long ago, so I don't know if you're joking, lol. He was great at the Olympics.
