Nice work.
Larrivee 00 Acoustic. FAV Strat for electric. Ibanez SDGR5 for bass. Push for Ableton. When not doing that, 3D CAD for tunnels...

ah man the surf green is so good :) yeah I can tweed it, I can leave it to you to finish unless you want it distressed ;) I reckon my corners and seams are pretty much there. Come on over for a look, bring a beer or two and we can sit out on the back porch comparing the 2 tweeds I have with yours :) Oh god I live in remmers not mississippi. I'll be talking catfish and grits next.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Deal. I'm 50/50 about it TBH- I do love the surf green. It's sounding utterly spectacular at the moment.

See, another one who says it affects the sound.

If green sounds spectacular, imagine what tweed will sound like :D
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

I thought that you & Strummers were playing surf music!

:shock: You can only use surf green or denche blue coloured amps & guitars if you want to authentic.
Epiphone Riviera P93 & EJ200CE, Hagstrom Viking Bass, Doubleneck bass/guitar.
Rivera Clubster 45, Carvin AG100D, Ashton BSK158.

I've got two tweeds dressed in quite different attire. I might complete with a 3rd - a bassman built from junk and clothed in tweed rag.

Yeah, it is really. I just love tweed amps. Mine is great the way it is- it would be dumb to change it.
