Not that there's much to add after Joel's and bobbydj's posts, which were both excellent in completely different ways, but to answer your specific questions: Maybe a Digital Recorder or a friends computer? If you've got a friend that's got a computer and some software that you can play with, that's ...

I remember that... Instead of searching for the thread, I did a google search for the original article. Interesting... It seems that the story spread very quickly acrosss a lot of weblogs, but it's hard to find a citation for the original article. At least according to this guy's blog. Hope that hel...

Don't know, but if nothing else, you could buy a some 1/4" or rca tips from radio shack or some other supplier and just pop those in.

Any Elvis Costello fans?

What is gong on with the snare drum at the beginning of "B Movie" on the "Get Happy!!" album? It's like a weird slapback, but...not. Is it a compressor or gate with a really slow attack, that opens up again to pass the reverb/decay?

I'd say dismantle as much as you can and wipe all the non-electonic parts with a weak bleach solution. When weather permits, leave it all out in the sun for a day or two (bring it in at night) - sunlight is a great disinfectant. I had a guitar amp that lived for several years in damp, drafty rooms i...
