The green monster




I've always had the most trouble with names, I don't like to name songs, I have lots of ideas for bands but i would hate to have to choose just one, I even hate naming pets! I usually just let someone else suggest a nickname that becomes a title or I just describe the thing I'm naming and that's the name. In this case both happened. My friend mike called this thing the green monster before I had a name for it and it is just a big green monster. it has three oscillators and a filter. The knobs are authentic de-commishined aircraft knobs from the inside of an airplane cockpit.




plastic nostalgia



I vaguely remember shirt tales from when I was a kid. I think my older sister may have watched it. This plastic lunchbox has printed on art, which is pretty nice since the older ones with sticker art are peeling and/or faded. It's copyright date is 1981 which makes it pretty old and it's in great shape for it's age. It also says made in USA. Thermos and Aladdin products were proudly made here until about the mid nineties I think. I made another amp just like this one in blue with a Flintstones scene on it. I didn't take a pic before binging them down to Arcata to sell. They sound great! Go and check them out if you are in town this nine volt amp and many more like it are for sale at
