I should have seen this one coming. You want them to turn out to be decent people don't you? I'm probably not the best role model. :mental:

I have one qualifying piece of gear for that. And if that's how the ball's guna roll, I will build a shrine and have my 1985 SD1 on display.

Here is my 87 sd1 in all it's grubby bubbly rusty glory having spent a good portion of the last 20 years in a salty sandy gear bag in a Piha basement.

I can't make it, but looks like my Korinacaster will.
Jealous much.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

On a related note, I have an amp that I'd like to get to Ryan as it needs fixing. 'Tis just a wee MPC Princeton clone. I don't suppose I could send it with one of our Auckland contingent to get to him? Entirely at your leisure, of course. Whenever you next visit the Amp Shop. Would be hugely appreciated! :D

There will be a few of us, am sure that can be arranged...
Larrivee 00 Acoustic. FAV Strat for electric. Ibanez SDGR5 for bass. Push for Ableton. When not doing that, 3D CAD for tunnels...
