Do you ever get the sense the Universe is winking at you from behind a veil of illusion or simulation? You’re probably right. Except the Universe is the illusion and it cannot wink.
My aunt found this Bible at her house and brought it to me the other day. It was given to me the day I was saved, June 13, 1986 at vacation Bible school. I was staying at her house at the time with my mom and two younger sisters after my parents’ divorce. I was 8 years old.
Later, I spent a lot of years as a professed agnostic, because I felt like it was the only logically defensible position to have in life, but I was forgetting the immutable axiom that no position which assumes the power of the human mind to discern Truth is ever truly safe or logical. We all need God in our lives. I’m just glad to be reminded of this again.
Hope y’all are having the kind of day that reminds you how lucky you are to be a part of Creation…perhaps even in spite of yourselves.
This is a video response to Tone Priest's question about modding a Hiwatt clone build. If you are a paid member here on Locals and have tech or other questions, I'll be happy to give you a similar video response when I get time! Thanks so much for all your continued support.
This was the full jam session on the Gibson L1 I did recently. As you probably know, I usually will jam for a while on something and then pick a few highlights to show in a final video. A ton of stuff got edited out. It's not all great, but it's not all bad either. I find it kind of soothing, this quiet acoustic stuff. I'm never sure where the mood will take me.
I made this quick video the other day for a friend and figured I'd post it here as well. He wants to get started in slide, so I was quickly showing him some open tuning concepts to make the transition to slide a bit easier. Kind of like learning slide without a slide.
Are you going to be making a big video of your trip to your buddy's? Seems like a treasure trove.
I think he may be onto something with phase matching in that weird network. If they just wanted to cut gain wouldn't they just put in a voltage divider? What amp is that? Curiosity has got me on that one.
When I built my 'Prince of Darkness' amp I copied the front end of an ancient Gibson amp and I gotta say, it sounds really good.
