Hi, I've been lying low lately.
A bit bummed out because they won't operate on my spine (so I'm stuck with three stuff discs and facet joints) AND my job at sea fell through until at least next year (won't hold my breath though).

So the whole amp building thing went on hold because I still havn't got my super funds released to me.
I have the DSL100 at Clarry's (PT rewind) and have also saved $1500 toward building a new amp.
Although the GMW RR VEE and the SG being sold by dodgy Dominic on TM are tempting too.

So I'm not sure what I'm up to.
Not even playing guitar much for the last couple of weeks. A new amp or guitar would renew my interest.
