My question is, what on earth are you doing that requires that much amp?

Downsizing.

Obviously.

Oooo.... Intriguing! I know he used to have some pro looking photos of himself up on the wall behind the counter. I wonder if he wrote one absolutely awful number 1 hit ( that he'd never admit to) and still lives off the royalties?!

It's possible. He's actually a monster player when he can be bothered.

Maybe we should do a 'Speculation of Ed Pausmas passive income ' thread? Could be a lot of fun. I'd put forward that he was gun running in the 80s for a band of political rebels in South America.

Has a wealth of knowledge about guitars that are around the country, a very interesting man to talk with, has dealt with luminaries in his time.

I once took a Luminary to Eddie's shop. Even he couldn't prise a guitar out of Ed.

Frank moved to New Plymouth. He's spending more time away from the store these days.
