Hi all.
First of all, let me add my condolences to all the affected in the terrible, senseless and inhuman attacks. It's certainly been a shameful thing for the human race...I just CAN'T understand how it is possible for a man to be so mind-obstructed as to take the determination of terminate both his life and that of thousands of people just because...I don't know...This world just blows my mind up...Religion, politics...When taken to extremes they're all the same bullshit...No decision is taken to benefit people, but to benefit governments, private&public organisms and power. Answering to one old Queen's song, this IS the world we created...I'm so puzzled 'bout this all...On the other hand it's been wonderful to see those huge ammounts of good will and solidarity in the people working and helping day and night in NY...My praises for them all...
I sincerely hope that it is justice, not vengeance, that is sought after. Justice must be made, and let us hope that no more innocents fall because of anger and rage. Let the reason rule...
In any case, and not to fall in another offtopic thread, I got two questions to make:
1.- Does anyone know why here in Europe -at least in Spain, but I believe it is extended- the distribution of Marine Bands fluctuates from MS to hand-made and vice-versa, and why there aren't -or at least they're hard to find- MSs in the States? I like HMs more than MSs, and its somewhat annoying to go to the local shop where they lately had HMs to find that they're again out of distribution and have instead MSs everywhere...
2.- I'd like to build a switch (not necessarily a footswitch) for the tremolo in my Princetons, but I don't know how I gotta make the soldering in the switch, and if I have to put any kind of resistor or something in between...Any idea? Here is a nice invention, http://www.highpines.net/sk66/sk/Images/jacksw.jpg. It's another option, but it'd need an RCA adapter to use it with the amps -and I don't know how to make it inside, neither...-
