Welcome...

PIT is a great city in every way, except the snow. 

If you are looking for a Melos GK1 I know one for sale locally that has been hot upgraded in every way. Sounds great.

I actually have no idea what upgrades he did to it, so I'll let OBG enlighten you on that one.  It's a great preamp though.

When I see "Master Blaster", I think of Stevie Wonder's tribute song to Bob Marley.

Great folks here!

I think Stevie sings "Everyone's feeling pretty....
Humungus (MasterBlaster proto) “Attack, my vermin, attack"
Master Blaster is not very quotable.


"The Lord Humungus! The Warrior of the Wasteland! The Ayatollah of Rock and Rolla!"

They must have kicked him out, that's not Southern hospitality. Apparently Kingman has adopted Northern ways, but at least he's not a Philadelphia fan type (is he?). I mean, I don't want to get pelted with remote batteries at the next swap meet.

Hanging the group... sounding good.
