Sorry about the size... first time placing a pic.

Hey there, that's a nice Strat you have. Like the sunburst, goes well with maple. And why does the bass knob look shorter than the others on your amp? Or is it just the pic?

The bass knob is a different knob (and it does bother me a little...) :? I been wondering where I can find an actual replacement for it...
And its pretty loud, but not as loud as some modern amps I play have played on. (its a good deal bigger though) Usually In praise band I play about somewhat past the halfway point...
And the tremelo feature is a real beauty :D Both the tremelo and reverb sound spectacular and it amazes me that after 42 years how well it sounds. Its almost like the amp was made for a strat...

Yesterday I had the house all alone to myself- I stayed up to two o'clock playing... 8) I recently got one of those Ehx Freeze pedals, so I been goofing around with that too.
Its funny how I've only been playing for two and a half years, and when I got that strat (about a year ago) and that amp (in August) they seem like to be catalysts for my playing- my goal before I go off to college is to be so amazing that I'll be melting faces in the crowd...

These old 60s Ampeg amps were the coolest things,if you ever tire of it I suppose I could bring myself to take it off your hands lol.
