It doesn't look the same, either. Tube TV's are warmer. I remember TV's with tubes. There was a boatload of them in a TV chassis. Drugstores and other businesses had a tube tester atop a cabinet with replacements. There were tubes in car radios. They'd take time to 'warm up' when you turned them on. They hummed. i missed the tubes in the car radio thing, could you imagine how many vf14 U47 tubes you could have bought for about $1 each! Selling a couple hundred of those today would be enough to retire on. Oh hot tub time machine, where art thou? How about a 59 les paul in about 1970, "what? this old thing? just take it, i'm getting a new one" lol I'm all for time travel. I sometimes like to think that ghosts people see are tourist time travelers from the future, who can only observe and not interact, so they don't disturb the time/space continuum. Guess I'm getting off topic from Amp Rx!  But I do feel fortunate to be alive when I have been, straddling the industrial and information ages. Cool stuff! |

That makes perfect sense to me. If this is the case, it'll be kind of disappointing not to be able to snag a '60 LP standard or custom or some other vintage gear on one of these journeys though... |
