    And what business did this so called Sam Clemens have writing on behalf of Mark Twain?
    Didn't Mark Twain know how to write?
    Why should anybody else do his job? Job, which, by the way, was handsomely payed for.
    He got a lot of money, he had his name printed in bold lettering on every Book cover (I'm sure poor Sam Clemens never did), he got all the hot chicks, everybody admired what he said, whether he actually had said that or not.
    Let's say it with all the letters:
    It's UNFAIR !!
    I think Sam Clemens should sue Mark Twain and leave him bankrupt.
    And that's not the only dirty deed Mark did to Sam, no Sir !!
    He should also repair that another injustice, which for us is far worse.
    Yes, you know very well what I'm talking about:
    Leo Fender *loved* all of Mark's books, so he called his preferred design the "Twain Reverb".
    Until that injustice is repaired, let us, at least, call it by the name it in Justice deserves: "The Clemens Reverb".
    Don't you believe that Leo Fender was a diehard fan of Mark's work?
    Why do you think he designed both of his best Guitars to have so much "Twaing"?
    Just answer that ...

        Hey!! You gave me a good idea !! I'll check with Doubleday or Simon and Schuster how much would they pay.
        Somebody might even turn it into a Film or a TV Soap Opera !!!
        Although ... the Pampas are Prairies , they might consider it a rip-off.
        Oh well, thanks anyway.

          OK, I got back from my brief vacation. before I left I sent a message to Mesa asking what the little wires were for.

          They replied.

          Greetings,

          Thanks for your email. Our tech said it was related to reducing the hum.

          Thanks

            Dang! I was hoping they'd say "THAT! Is that still in there? Ohmigod, get that out of the kitted parts, guys!"

            ROFLMAO
            Amazing!! Who would ever have guessed that someone who villified the evil rich people would begin happily accepting their millions in speaking fees!

            Oh, wait! That sounds familiar, somehow.
