Hoping to jag a couple of days up the coast before xmas are you and Paul playing anywhere between now and then? I'm really keen on meeting & learning from aussie/local CBG folks. I'll be at Perigian & Boreen Point... I drum so might also get to Mooloolaba fire if I can time it right..

I am using two 741 chips and an lm-386 power amplifier chip. It will have a mixer for three inputs, a pre amp and the power amp. Figuring out now where to put the controls now. I will try to make a video for you when its done. I salvage a lot of parts and buy a few. We will see. I usually give-em away when they are done.

At 2:20pm on November 21, 2009, Jkevn said…: I'm not sure what the "invite friends" link is for at the top-right of the page. The easy way to add friends is to click on a members picture/avatar, go to their page & click "add as friend" Maybe this helps....

At 1:50pm on November 21, 2009, Jkevn said…: I'm sure it's just as special to him. There's just something about giving one to someone and watching them make music with it...can't wait for more pics...

At 2:44am on November 21, 2009, Norm Nyburg said…: The brass looks nice in your pic! My next bottleneck slide I think I'll try taking the top off as well so the whole thing is straighter and more consistant. Maybe a bit shorter too. I'm trying for a stubbie like Shane is suggesting.

At 7:45am on November 20, 2009, Norm Nyburg said…: Thanks Fleur I'm really enjoying the artwork on the Cuesta-Rey and lovin' the sound!
I did make the slides myself from a vid I found on CB Nation. Used my dremal tool and some diamond cut off wheels I bought on ebay.

At 3:46am on November 19, 2009, Bluesheart said…: Thank you. I think all the changes to the site wil take some time to settle in. Glad to know you. Bruce

At 6:30pm on November 18, 2009, bairfoot cajun said…: thanks, Fleur much respect to ya.

At 1:46pm on November 18, 2009, Tres Seaver said…: Heh, the advantages of experience -- I even beat the Thorley to the punch.

At 1:09pm on November 18, 2009, Paul Thorley said…: how do you send a friend request that gets through?

At 2:07am on November 18, 2009, Tres Seaver said…: Welcome aboard, Fleur! You will find lots of helpful folks and information here on all things CBG (CBU, CBB, etc.) Feel free to poke around, ask questions, and post your stuff (photos, recordings, videos, etc.).

Most of all, have fun!

Tres.
