Wow! One more!

 OPS! I've got an aquistic guitarr. Nice and easy to play. That might be as it is a Fender. All Fenders are easy to play!? Looks OK.

To the bad news. I've got around 1' (30 cm) of the white fluff. To early and just more work! At the moment it is snowing and temp is around 28 F (2 C). It is predicted to 1' more of the fluff.


Snow!

Not so much radio at the moment. But a lot of guitar work

 I have done a lot of interesting play with my instruments. I got a hold of a Les Paul made by Epiphone and that is supported by Gibson. and cost is about a 10:th of the cost of a original Gibson. And this is equippped with Humbucker and it sounds just fine through my 100 W Fender Amp. 


Take a look! And I have a few more!


A Telecaster!


A Stratocaster


And a Jazz Bass

The only thing that is missing is a drum set. But my house is to small and I don't have room for a drum set.

Well, summer is almost gone and darkness is coming down on us. Så back to playing.

Take care!

Rare QSL arrived!

 Received QSL from my QSO's with FT8WW, Thierry. He has made over 50 000 QSO's with only him self as operator. Hat off!!!! And Thanks for both QSL and upload to LoTW.

Now I'm waiting for QSL from Bouvet 3Y0J. Managed to work them on some band slots. Bouvet has upload to LoTW. Both Crozet and Bouvet was ATNO for me. But I still have 12 to go!

A little bit of "Fuzz"!

 I had to build an old type of pedal to my tube amp. I is a Fuzz with only 2 transistors, So I found a kit on the net. Odered it and it arrived within 2 days! Thanks!

Easy to assembly. I put it together in 30 minutes. And it works as it is supposed to do! So now I can make a lot of noise!!!!

Amazing Amp!

 I found this Tube Amp on You Tube. It has a 12" Celestion Seventy80 speaker. 3 X 12AX7 (ECC83) and 2 X EL84 (6BQ5) power tubes. Price tag was 250$. And it sounds just super with my Fender Strat. Puts out around 15 W and switch to around 1 W for home use.


 



Wonder how they can sell them so cheap. Brand is Harly Benton. But it is found under different brands as Stage Right by Monoprice. Harly Benton is from Thomann in Germany for EU and Stage Right in US I think.

WX here in Sweden is not so good! A lot of white fluff in the air and predicted around 12" of it!! Temp is -3 C (28 F).  CUL
