    Some People Just Have No Sense....

    .....like they drop their keys in the back of their cars while checking to see if the new amp they want to buy will actually fit ok.

    ..... then they have to wait for 2 hours for their spouse to notice that they're missing and check their cell phones and come get them.

    .... then they flat refuse to purchase said amp and put the salesman through teatotal hell if he can't find the cover that they KNOW came with the puppy so for an hour this pour schmuck has covers spread from hell to breakfast on the floor of the showroom while they pace around pretending they're considering whether they're going to buy said amp or order a new one with a smaller cab.

    But I suppose..... in the long run.....when you think about it.....


    It was worth it.

    Re: Some People Just Have No Sense....

    Actually, I'm PMS'ing nicely so I sat on a small stool, snarling silently at a cell phone (which caused the price to drop $150) for about an hour. I really did lock my keys for the first time ever in the back of the 'Vette.

    I caught myself whining at the owner that he'd better give me something free on this deal as long as I was spending in his store. He handed me a fly swatter, which surprised me so much I burst out laughing.

    Well, it fits in the back of a Silver 1999 C5 Corvette nicely so will travel well with RC's amp, my bass, his guitar, an overnight bag, and other sundries. I do need help lifting it in and out, though.

    Tele-Tubby saw how much room we have in the back so that's not such a surprise. We had 2 amps, etc. at the Arkansas Jam.

    BTW, its a lovely deep blue but I didn't pick it out. About the shade of the background of the TFF actually.

    Aint that just like a woman, ask her what kind of amp she bought and the reply is "a blue one" :) At least she knows the car she is driving is a little more than a "silver one".

    Just kiddn with ya shoe, but enquiring minds want to know (what the heck did you get?)

    Re: Some People Just Have No Sense....

    Well, my husband calls me a tease. ;)

    I will say that I romped it up last night while playing Cisco Kid (War) and I'd say "the earth moved" was an appropriate statement.

    Then later I fiddled around and played some Norah Jones tunes and just melted so I am happier than a kitten with a bowl full of cream.

    The J Bass and Shoe have found their complete match...... ahhhhhh.

    I don't even play bass and I want one. Well, I sort of do (or did). That looks soooo cool.

    Congratulations.

    I ordered the gig bag for the amp so that I can yank it when I need it. For $32, I want that baby protected.

    Re: Some People Just Have No Sense....

    Thank you, Spose, for putting me on it. It's just what I/we need and it does fit in the car and it does fit my needs and it does deliver. Yes, its pricey and yes, its hard to find.

    I'm happy, though.

    .... and if Shoe's happy, RC's gonna be happy.

    I changed names because everytime I used Gretschluvr it made me remember my Tennesee Rose. I loved that guitar but did it no justice.
    AND
    I have my own meds by the way!
