. . .have a tube front end? I thought there was one tube that created the warm distortion. No?

Anyway, thanks for the reply. I know i'm enjoying having that closed back thump. Everything i've ever had has been open back. As great as my Boogie sounds, it can't give that "thump".

I have another jam on SuperBowl afternoon. We play from 2 until the game starts. Actually, i'm leaving in time to get home in time to watch the game. I'm not the type to watch the game in a bar.

But the guys i play with are the same guys since 1985. So, hanging with those boys is always a good time. (Back to the original story, it's me, another guitar player, the drummer, and our bass player who used to be, yep, our light guy.) You know, a lot of bands can't stand the sight of one another after 27 months. We've been playing together with one bass player or another (and for a couple years i was one of them) for 27 years.

So, now i've got a new toy to go play with my friends. How much fun is that?
