Mickey is recovering at home after yet another major operation. The poor guy has suffered ill health and bad luck for many years. Lets all wish him a speedy recovery and pray for a period of decent health for a change.

Hi Mickey,
You haven't had your troubles to seek my friend. Anyway, I hope this wee message finds you on the road to recovery and that you'll soon be behind that steel guitar charming us with your playing and fine melodies. Get well soon Brother!!!

A Fender Twin with JBL's and a D10 ZB in each hand up 4 flights was the best I could ever manage. That would have been when I was in my 20's. 40+ years later and the gear is half to weight it was but too late to correct the back and the heart problems caused by repeated straining of carrying gear that only Geoff Capes would have found easy.

I remember being chuffed when I bought a Session 500 that it was so light compared to the Twin. I can now lift my Telonics combo with one finger. :o :o Best wishes to you mate.
