busted gear update

zasko (bless him) is coming to pick up my gtr the amp i blew up tom'w. he has the guts to an american strat that he's offered to put in the indo squier, but i have to wait to see what the damage is going to be on my amp first. he said it's still making noises like a popcorn popper with new tubes he just put in. he's sending it out to the same guy in hurst who just fixed the amp i blew up. i may wind up playing one of lee-boy's m&m specials for fred's fest. on the positive side, my dtr's b-f james (bless him) has a telecaster he's offered me on extended loan. luckily, the li'l roland remains reliable for jam usage. not sure what the final stoogeband amp solution is gonna be quite yet. film, as they say, at 11.
