So about a year ago I traded my amp for a PRS Archtop II. While it is a great guitar I definitely missed my amp from the start. So the guy I traded it to asked me if I would be interested in working out a swap for some deck repairs. Obviously I jumped at the chance and now she's back home. I'll try to post some pics of my Fuchs Triple Drive Supreme later today. If any of you have ever had the chance to test drive this Rolls Royce I'm sure you can agree with me about the sound. Anyway, I'm off to fill my tone jones. ;D
Awesome, how do you like your Archtop II? It's the thicker bodied one right? I have an Artist Archtop from '99 on layaway now. Love the tone.

I have several, more then I have time to play. My wife would say too many, yes I am very lucky she tolerates my GAS habbit. Family shot upon arrival of the PRS, it will be my last for a while.
Been interested in trying a Fuchs amp, but man they are pricey. my local GC has a used Head/Cab for $3,999. Not sure the model.

Seriously dude. I'm just trying to get one nice guitar. You must make some phat cash. Need an assistant or a guitar tech? ;)

Fuchs amp
I've always been curious how to pronounce that. Fux? Fewks? Either way enjoy that amp. I bet you can dial in some great sounds with that thing.
Hi PON. I'm ShockedAndPersuaded and I'm a GAS'oholic. :D The Archtop II is the thicker body. I actually removed the electronics and put in a set of Schaller Golden 50's with some mini toggles for split/series/parallel. The original pup's sounded good but I wanted the versatility. As far as the amp, hands down the greatest amp I've had yet. I can't say ever because I haven't had them all. Yet. bwahahahaha. Oh and sour it's fewks. Although fux is usually the first reaction I get from people. You can get a variety of tones. Anything from Santana, Herring, SRV, Eric Johnson, Kimock, Mayer......... sorry I get excited.
Has there not been a gear porn post here yet? If not there should be one fa sho. I didn't get the chance to take pics today but I'll have em posted tomorrow. I haven't done a family picture in a while.
