The old Batman show was in reruns by the time I was born but Julie Newmar's ass is legendary. Especially in that get up.

That being said, that show gets a LOT right about the Batman mythos, especially for its time. Yeah it's campy, but the things done well are REALLY done well.

Paul at PLX posted some goods. Paul huge favor with the head/cab. Can you pare it down to one stack? I’m assuming it’s the one that’s miked up but even just cropping the photo would work.

I get that. I really do. I'm not trying to be a douche here either, but just trying to keep consistent. Next year I'll open it up for multi amp rigs. Just didn't realize how much guys were using more than one at this point in time.

I think "budget" should be reevaluated. Just because you are given a $2000 amp or find multiple speaker cabs at a construction site or whatever shouldn't really be in the same category as someone's hard-earned investment. Just my 2 bits. :nerd:

I’ll look at that for next year. At this point I’m not going to walk back what I already agreed to. But I get what you’re saying.

No, I'm completely joking dude. Besides, the Quinn isn't actually a Dumble, and I have no room for that shizzle.

My post was intended to jab Duncan in the ribs for the Matchless head on a Dr Z cab in the "budget" category. :rolleyes: :lol:
