The most interesting amp builder in the world....

Post by amplifiednation »

Doesn't have to twist his heaters

He never needs to swap his OT primaries

His capacitors are correctly marked for outer foil...at the factory...every time

His stranded leads tin themselves

He never uses shielded wire

His lead dress-es itself

His ground loops are silent...but he's never had one

No one has ever seen his gut shots

His goop is unpenetrable

And he drinks Dos XX.

Seriously, the most interesting amp builder is the one dripping with women. Know any?

His amps go from glassy crystal clean to full on high gain metal hair with the guitar volume knob with no change in output volume whatsoever.

There is no bias adjustment on them - none ever needed.

It takes him a couple of hours to build one to custom specs.

They can be dropped off the back of a truck with no ill effects.

Makes fizz free amps that bloom on schedule, guaranteed.

Never a shock, on the price tag either, very affordable.

All mod cons, no feature is left out.

Triple bypassable effects loops.

Never needs ironing.

Ask your doctor.

His amps don't need a player's "talent" switch...

His features don't need to be switchable. He knows the correct position.

He doesn't mind working with lead-free solder

Not real big just a pint I like how the math works out. I can say I only drank a six pack but it works out to 8 normal beers.
Kinda like grandpa used to say "that keystone ice is 5.9% its like gettin a extry beer in every six pack"

I enjoyed learning yesterday that it was Imperial Pint day at my local brewpub. I ordered an IPA, and it came in the bonus glass.

Good news comes in 19.2152 oz packages!

Hmmm, that means 6.66 glasses in a 128 fluid oz gallon :twisted:

Whoa, you made me get out my slide rule for that one... :shock:

Is that why they only serve growlers in 64 oz jugs? Would something ominous happen if I drank a whole gallon at once?

If I wanted to try, what would be the safest sippy straw configuration?
