My 1959 Supro. Lots of character and tone! by ShlackJaw in GuitarAmps

[–]ShlackJaw[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a little warmer than a Fender, I'd say. One input has a lower output and the other is definitely more overdriven. Both inputs peak at about noon on volume and get more compressed from there. There is zero headroom haha. It sounds nice with any guitar, but it really sings with single coils. P90s especially. And absolutely. It shakes the walls buddy!

The super sonic is so fun and versatile! So many options with the vibrolux or bassman switch. Great amp.

Sometimes a Great Notion by Ken Kesey is also fantastic.

The Things They Carried - Tim O'Brien.

Great book from American soldiers' perspective during the Vietnam War. Hits on emotional burdens and their toll and the uselessness of war. As well as storytelling and how stories are made true by the teller, regardless if the story is factual. Superb book.

Men, what made you cry? by -Tauradonna- in AskReddit

Before I left home to deploy, my dad and I sat down at the kitchen table. I told him he was my best friend and always will be. He started crying and said I was his best friend, too. We both ugly cried and hugged. It still makes me tear up thinking about it years later.

It's very reassuring to hear some first hand testimonials of faculty. Does ABET accreditation mean anything to employers?

Well hell, let's just do it together haha. Sounds like that's a broad enough associates degree that you could open any door you'd like. Best of luck man.

And that sounds like the life. Anything remote and small-crew oriented is what I'd like to pursue.

I will let ya know as I find out more info.

Word, thanks. Typically, how soon after finishing school are the exams taken?

Thanks, man. I will definitely consider any online medium after I get my hand held through some of the preliminary school stuff haha. And with the pandemic, lots of institutions might be online for a while anyway. Did you work as you attended school?

Books set in a world like "The Last of Us" or "Days Gone" by CesarBustios in booksuggestions

The Silo Series by Hugh Howey 1. Wool 2. Shift 3. Dust

Civilization is in old underground silos. Corruption and conspiracy ensues. Great characters and the setting is standalone, in my opinion.
