They have their own version of "Crazy Train", they changed the lyrics to fit their message. Personally, I hope 1000 Slayer fans show up and makes those idiots regret protesting his funeral.

I looked at the Invader, it looks like a great amp. Too bad I can't afford it right now, lol. I'm looking at the Fireball 60 or 100.

Thanks for the input!! I think the price difference is around $300, which isn't too bad. The only real issue I have is that there's 1 EQ for both channels. Did you have any issues with this??

High gain amp

Hi, folks. I'm going to be buying a new amp soon, just thought I'd get some opinions. I'm interested in the Engl Fireball 60, though I haven't played one. I can't find anyone that carries it, so I've had to look up demos on Youtube. I also like the Soldano Avenger, based on demos. Have any of you ou...

I dig it! There's something about personalizing a guitar, even if the end result isn't the same as a really fancy finish or woodgrain. My Number 1 has things carved right into the back of the body from my own hand. I recently saw a video on YouTube of Dweezil Zappa showing a Strat that his father h...

When I was playing in my old band, we had our own lighting rig. It was 2 trees and some homemade scaffolding. We bought some extra large black curtains, and sewed some grommets into them. The pin lights we used had long bolts on them, so we ran the bolts through the grommets and attached both to the...

Thanks for the advice, hicksjd9. I'm going to get a few books, and do some reading before I attempt one. I've seen a few online that look good, but if anyone has any recommendations, I'm all ears. If not, I appreciate all the input that everyone has provided.

I was planning on building something with some gain in it, but I've read that building a high gain amp isn't something a beginner should take on. I've decided I should start with something basic. I'll look into the ones that you've mentioned.

Cool, glad to hear that it's not like brain surgery, lol. I'm thinking of going with a kit, I couldn't do it from scratch. If I can do a few kits, then maybe I could try one from scratch. Where did you order your kit from??

The writer's logic is that since the only thing they were trying to protect was the football program, take the football program away.

Thin Ice played the Huntigdon High School Auditorium in '91. We opened for pop singer Jimmy Harnen, and fully expected the crowd to chant for him, as they were just young kids. By the 2nd song, they were singing along, waving their arms, and basically going completely crazy. Two memories stand out:...
