Grand Wazoo Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) And we have an old saying in Italy that goes like this: [i][b]"Ogni scarrafone e' bello a' mamma sua"[/b][/i] which roughly translate in... [b][i]"every cockroach is beautiful to his own mom"[/i][/b], and that ultimately means that if you like it, that's what matter, and if others don't that's tough!

stingrayPete1977 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Have you posted pics on the EBMM forum? The guys their really embrace home modifications like this! Ha While your there send big poppa a message to see if he likes it and ask him if he thinks it would sound better with a j-east preamp and a Kent Armstrong pickup, The reply will be Internet gold I'm sure......
