lol all cops have to do a desk pop!  Bang!  That literally had me laughing out loud, @bassbuyer !  The reaction of the other cops, particularly Michael Keaton, was hilarious.  Will Ferrell does such a graet job of playing the role of a gullible... 
Can you do anything to make power tubes last longer ?
Good tube equipment will last for decades with only occasional tube replacements. Hmmm . . . decades?  I don't think you will get decades out of output tubes unless you skip using your amp for a decade or so.

disagreeing with someone far more articulate than one, and a much better writer to boot, is a bit of a fool’s errand Which is why in most cases I would never embarrass myself by daring to disagree with you on a public forum, @devinplombier , bu...

Wasn’t he the guy who lived on an old bus until they ate him? Talk about Meals on Wheels, Alaska style... @thecarpathian , I think you might be confusing the one I mentioned with another one. Emile Hirsch played the role of a young man (theore...
