MY MONTHLY RANT
Tarriffs off ....Tariffs on. 10% then 15% then who knows WTF!!!



TIME TO SHOUT
Like most of you the budget is a more than a bit strained. My wife will be out of the country for a month so Muggins here will be doing all the household buying which for the most part will be groceries at the new eye watering prices. 
New pedals have slowed down. No one knows when to buy the parts etc. as they may overpay and won't be able to recoup the costs and no one is shipping the parts for transportation is all over the map with prices and delays etc. is also in a mess. 
 
Fender is going to fire 250 workers in May. They have kept creeping up the prices and no one is buying. Amps new at $2000 are literally easy to find used and even mint sell for $1000. Last week Youtuber Phillip McKnight bought a  Fender Hot Rod amp and was 
shocked at the difference. He said he found 3 under $1000 in just seconds of looking. 
.....Double back here over the month as I will keep you updated with all the whatever, lol.

 

TOYS FOR THE OLDER BOYS
Some old, some new, all cool !!!

 


JHS PEDALS MORNING GLORY CLEAN
The standard morning Glory is Josh's biggest selling pedal. A BluesBreaker clone that every upgrade took from a transparent Drive to a mediocre mid gain pedal. This one is his original v.1  but with a knob to add cleans. I had the standard one for 2 years. Garabage! If I pulled it back where I wanted it ,it had nasty artifact like an extra cheap Chinese OD. The clean version is easily 110% better. If the one I had was this I would still own it.




Wait for it!!! WTF only just got out of bed!!!!  
Come back in an hour or 2 for the rest of the sh@t
