Potential Mesa Reissues? IIC+ and Dual Rec

[JiveTurkey]

And rock and roll wouldn't exist without Chuck Berry. But somehow Chuck didn't end up in my top 15 in Apple Music this year. In other words, acknowledge value and ground broken, but otherwise zero fucks given.

Or top 500

I didn't mean his music.

I see 100% why you have an attachment to his music though. Those life memories tied to music when we are young are very important!

Honestly, it's just that one song. LOL But yes, definitely.

And I always liked Greg Rollie. With him and Journey.

Exactly, and that's why I get why so many like him. I don't, but I surely understand the deal. I can do just fine without PRS though!

Me too. But there was a time when I thought PRS was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I've always been like that though.

When it was my LPC, that was the only guitar for me. Then it moved to my PRS Std. and my CU24. And now it's the MM JP15 & Majesty.

But I doubt anything will ever change my love of Mesa amps.

(Even if I couldn't possibly imagine wanting this new IIC+ over the sheer versatility of several of the other Mark amps.)

I know. Just saying, at a certain point contributions become unimportant to me, personally.

FTFY

there was a time when you just either played a super strat or a les paul

25" scale length on a thick af double cut maple/mahogany slab of violin carved glass dipped JimmyP on a 5-way, cradling the HolyFuckingShit bridge pickup, was, in fact, if you can believe it, not initially a cash grab. at all.

SE, S2, private stock, now it's just about maximizing numbers. but how perfect can you really make something before you inevitably have to concentrate the essence and bring it down to the toy box level. I don't think it's really a bad thing, to have SE and S2 stuff next to squier and epiphone. it just makes less room for the really good stuff.

Don’t forget…



Today I learned Jimi Haha from Jimmie’s Chicken Shack used to work at PRS.

Meh. At that time I was listening to Satriani, Petrucci, Vai, Fear Factory, Korn, notice a trend? It was all Ibanez for the guys I was mainly listening to. Well mainly Ibanez, ESP, and Jackson for the type of music Iike. None of the pop rock PRS bands ever appealed to me.

(A medley of fusion, jam bands, and napalm death for good measure lol)

Here it is… unboxed at least. Big f’ing iron!

YAY congrats! now you can finally play some Prince, Santana or Bruce Springsteen!

I've never paid any attention to him. Respect for being an OG if nothing else but none of his songs ever spoke to me. No severe loathing or anything though.

I’m on the edge of severe loathing. It’s that fucking triplet lick with the shitty bend at the end he overuses that drives me up a wall.

Ya’ll posting these PRS pics and not even the coolest one-

Dan Spitz is highly underrated compared to his contemporaries of the time.

Sounding pretty good there.

Not a lot of chugs, but pretty in depth with all of the settings and how they all affect each other:
