...thanks Jim.....
....the inside portion of the heat pump.....the furnace.....there's alos a bathroom on the other side of that..........
....don't know if you can make it out....the power setting is set for 15 watts.....when I first got it I had to find out how load I was....so I set it on 60 watts....there's a setting that does a pretty good imitation of Hendrix at Woodstock.....so I proceeded to play The Star Spangled Banner......the door at the top of the stairs flew open and my younger daughter stormed down....."DAD....PLEASE TURN IT DOWN"............nothing like a generational about face............ ;D..........I haven't repeated it unless the house is empty............

15 tube watts can be pretty loud too. 60 is a LOT more fun though. How can the younger generation not appreciate what Jimi did for our National Anthem? It`s an instrumental. We don`t have to attempt the upper vocal registers! Keep on rockin`. Jim

....this is solid state amp with a tube in the pre-amp for the effects.......so 15 watts here is moderate.......60 watts is more than I currently know what to do with.......it's my first amp.........
....I think it had more to do with it being Dad......if it had been anybody else it probably would have been okay..........she has since come to terms with her father taking music lessons..........
....from the young peoples' point of view.....Hendrix is dated.....it's the stuff their parents listen to.......kinda like the big band stuff our parents listened to when we were teenagers and chided us about the stuff we listened to as being junk.......
......now I chide my daughter about where are the singer-song writers....where are the great riffs......where are the great lead guitarists......all people know how to do these days is sample somebody elses music and call it their own.....how come they're remaking hits from the past...........gosh.....I've become my parents......
