Did you go to Hamburg so you could be the German Measles?

in 1966 there weren't a whole lot of marshalls and voxes in the USA.
Fender was pretty much the standard "professional" amp there was.

I love the Starfire.

what's really kinda funny with that pic, is that the cream colored Bandmaster was considered "old" at the time.
now it's considered a holy grail amp.

I don't seek a Telecaster in the line up.

you didn't click on the link in my above post about how the band got started.

Ah, I assumed that telecaster911 was a part of the band. I should have known from my reading of Joe Walsh's autobiography. At 61, I guess things don't stick in the memory as well as they used to.

Interesting article, I'd never heard of them. What prompted this post? Were one of you guys one of those guys?

Is that Joe Walsh?

I have to admit,that was my first thought.
