SUNN Smiley Pics
« on: May 02, 2011, 09:20:41 am »
As promised......some better shots of a couple of rare rigs. Actually these two are CRAZY rare since there are no holes in the grills and the handle is intact :)

I even got the "paisley" tolex pattern to really pop in the shots for anyone who has never seen the original SUNN tolex. If you look really close, you will notice the one cab has the VERY  earliest SUNN smiley badge on it that only has "PORTLAND, OREGON" beneath the logo.

A lot of history in these shots....

Yeah.....I HATE CATS!!!!!  It's my GF's cat.

I keep pieces of paneling in front of all my grills until I need to plug in and play.

As soon as I start playing the cat comes looking....I go thru a LOT of FingerEase, spraying the cat. It doesn't like the hissing sound.

A piece of duct tape on its back also keeps it busy for a looong time :evil:

That cat probably hates you right back, I hate the fact that you put duct tape on a cat.

Unfortunately, the cat insists on sleeping on my chest every night no matter what I do. I roll up the piece of duct tape into a ring and stick it on her back where she can't easily get to...keeps her busy for awhile and away from my gear. She eventually gets it off and it doesn't seem to hurt her. My GF gets jealous that her cat likes me better, no matter what I do to it.

She made us bring the cat along when we drove up to Nova Scotia last October....in a box truck, to move some stuff up there. Because of the cat, it took 2 hours to get through customs. My GF had let the cat out of its carrier because it wouldn't stop meowing. Then it got lost in the back of the truck, hiding under all the stuff. Two female customs agents made me back the truck up to a warehouse and empty half of it until they could see the cat...they noticed that my GF and I both had lots of fresh scratches/blood on our hands and arms. We'd taken the cat for a rabies shot the day before because you cannot bring one into Canada w/o a certificate. The cat remembered that we put it in the carrier to get the shot, so now it goes crazy any time we try to put it into the carrier.

A GF with a cat is like having two GFs......

Want to have some fun?  Put a dab of very minty/wintergreen type toothpaste on the cat's tongue.  It won't stop licking at for an hour!!

 Would it kill you guys keep your cat torturing tips to yourselves? I understand you must be proud of getting the best of small animals but it's not really adding to conversation about great amplifiers.
