Jonathan sent me this, from Ernie Ball Forum.
Dear Abby,
I think my wife is cheating on me. I am a working musician and, as you would expect, travel a lot. I have been noticing strange things happening when I get home. Her cell phone rings and she steps outside to answer it or she says, “I’ll call you back later”. When I ask her who called, she gets evasive. Sometimes she goes out with friends but comes home late, getting dropped off around the corner and walking the rest of the way. I once picked up the extension while she was on the phone and she got very angry.
A buddy of mine, who is also a guitar player, told me that my wife and some guy have been to his gigs. He wanted to borrow my guitar amp. That’s when I got the idea to find out for myself what was really happening.
I said “Sure, you can use my amp but I want to hide behind it at the gig and see if she shows up, and who she shows up with.”
He agreed. Saturday night came and I slipped behind my Marshall JCM800 half stack to get a good view. I could feel the heat coming off the back of the amp. It was at that moment, crouching down behind the amp, that I noticed that one of the tubes was not glowing as bright as the other three. Is this something I can fix myself or do I need to take it to a technician?
Thanks,
Very Concerned

Mike’s a genius! lol…
I couldn’t stop laughing when I read this…
The point is, gear-heads (as in enthusiasts) are more concerned about their gears than their wife.
Silver should add before that letter that this letter was sent to a well-known amp tech, that will kinda makes much more sense.

*ahems*
Let me edit something.
“The point is, gear-heads (as in enthusiasts) are more concerned about their gears than their wife/husband.”
Now, that makes sense. =D

Gears are for real men! Girls can’t handle gears!
lol…
michael // Jun 5, 2007 at 10:02 pm
