I don't mind the push-pull, but would totally prefer switch if I had the option. Now, to keep the knob on my Scheter's push-pull from falling off when I pull it.

I dig push-pulls, it looks more badass when you hit a knob with your fist right before a solo. But I also like em some switches.It depends on placement, like a pushpull on a les paul would be pointless, but a push-pull on a strat type (where theknobs are close to were you pick) would be cool.

The knobs on my 004 just started doing full circle spins. Apparently no one has developed equipment that can stand up to my band's live shows. Especially cables.

You're far from the only one, breaux. It's a rad club to be in, if a bit expensive.

I'm just glad my headstock survived breaking a kid's hand. I've got a friend in another band who broke the headstock clean off his strat on a kids face while on tour. Sometimes it seems ridiculous that shows can get that haggard, but if I had to stand like a coat rack and wasn't able to be close to the crowd I'd quit playing live.
The price we pay to have the fun we do.

What I already knew/confirmed from the last two posts: California/Australia problems aren't real problems. When you're telling a story that begins with, "Well I was having a wonderful time a sunny beach..." nothing too bad can happen from there.
It's 6:30PM and I don't want to get out of bed.
