Good idea. Doing decent set-ups for cash might be a good business on a larger campus.

Flipping guitars can be a great hobby, but don't expect it to pay the bills.

His knowledge of tube amps knows no bounds. He is a superb guitarist. AND (as everyone will attest) he is a nice guy.

Unfortunately, his producing projects keep him out of the amp workshop for now...

Oh, and for heaven's sake read his bio: http://www.billyzoom.com/niceguy.html

Great googly moogly...I want one of those Little Kahuna's...

Unfortunately, that's about the only thing Brian and I have in common.

He fixed a couple amps for me in the early aughts. Cool guy, very dry sense of humor. He demonstrated what he did with my amps on his Epiphone Coronet (modded). He is a technical wiz...possibly the best cross picker I have had the pleasure of watching at close range. And, clueless dolt that I am, I didn't know who he was ("X", etc.) until later. I recall that he was more interested in talking about about hot-rodded cars than guitars. Go figure.

Old news (2008) but cool video.

Good player, that one.

I traded in a Univox HiFlier (Phase 3), now collectible but not a particularly good guitar, for an Aims Tele-style (MIJ by Hoshino?), not collectible but very decent player.

That's like saying South Dakota owns the USA.

MF is a wholly owned subsidiary of GC.
Getcher facts straight...

GC/MF, of course, is providing the bandwidth here at HC for you to air your complaints, gratis.

They can't be ALL bad...

I am quite jealous!

I can't speak to the relative power of lipstick.

However, there has been lots of recent disussion here on the merits of different HB-sized P-90s:
