It really boggles the mind how stupid corporations think the buying public is. Even while I'm fishing I can catch a few too....

If you believe that the amount of gear you have, lesser or more, makes you smarter or better you need to step back and rethink your posture. If that's what amounts to a man then we're in a very sad world.

LOL!

I've always been influenced by Mozart and Bach, so this is sort of a.. ."Mach"-piece. What's it called? "Lick my love pump." smile

Re: 50th anniversary marshall gibson goldtop

This was mentioned by Chris George in one of the videos for the small 1 watt Marshall amps a few months back. There was a goldtop sitting next to a blues breaker and he said it was going to be some sort of special release at some point in the near future.

And I must say I agree with the general consensus here of how wonderfully priced that have made it...easily within most people's reach for sure.
