I ship guitar amps all the time. Never an issue. Just know, it will cost more due to the weight.
Plenty of videos on youtube of how to package electronics correctly and safely for parcel transport.

What is MMR?
I love Jimmy Buffett and his music. But, I do not believe he is in the top five musicians from the state. Look at all the Delta Blues musicians, I'd believe those cats take the top five spots.
Now, Buffett is certainly the most financially successfully musician from the Sip.

Home interior design program?
Posted by Fishwater on 11/13/25 at 10:30 am
Looking for a program that can help my wife and I figure out furniture and cabinet placement in a home remodel. What are the good amateur programs for this?
Something where I can enter the dimensions of the room and then move furniture around.
Thanks.

Have you not read the 50 cent Shreveport thread?? You might eat yo words!! :lol:
(Before I answer - I am a tube amp snob.)
If you don't have a Princeton Reverb (tube not the tone master) get one! Classic amp that is a perfect pedal platform for home and can be miked at any gig.
The Tone master series amps are cool. Moddler amps that have a built in attenuator. If you go TM, why not go with a Deluxe?
I have a Princeton reverb tube amp and love it. Play it every night and believe me, it can be too loud for at home playing, so I have a Swartz's Night Light Jr between the power amp and the speaker to attenuate it. I also switched out the speaker for an alnico speaker and really opened up the amp, highly recommended.
What pedals do you have? For a tele I highly suggest the Wampler Belle (Nobles ODS-1 clone) and the Boss Blues Driver. Great pedals for the tones you are going for.
(My favorite pedal is the Feder MTG Tube Distortion. Has a tube in it and can be a boost all the way up to high gain lead tones!)

Thank you, activated. YTTV is now as expensive as anything else. Shame.
re: How do your "friends" make sure their drugs aren't tainted with fentanyl?
Posted by Fishwater on 10/24/25 at 8:42 am to sidewalkside
I've asked clients this same question. They all answer that they use Fent test kits to test their supply before getting high. They also state they use the same dealer who test the supply and has always been reliable.

(I had a client get busted with some coke years ago. The tested positive for fent by the cops and the state lab. Client had not dipped into the bag yet and the arrested saved the client's life.)

A $7 million settlement reached in April 2023 marked the latest chapter in a sordid tale of mismanagement at Bi-State Jail (BSJ) in Texarkana, Texas, by former private operator LaSalle Corrections. But the family-owned prison profiteer, based in Ruston, Louisiana—which ended its contract to run BSJ in February 2021—has left a trail of death in other lockups, too.
Often using legal maneuvers and a confusing array of similarly named companies to avoid legal liability, the company generally insists on secrecy when it settles a claim brought by survivors of a deceased prisoner or detainee. However, the family of one victim at BSJ, Holly Barlow-Austin, insisted on reporting the $7 million they accepted to settle the lawsuit filed over her torturous death due to denied medical care, the largest jail death payout in Texas history.
Well, LaSalle just had a $42 million verdict reached against them yesterday. Woof.
