Winding up some vintages today to give them exercise. Hamilton Thin-o-matic (1968) and Luch 2209 (late 70s I think).

Thank you! It's certainly a favorite in the little hoard here. :tiphat:
I remember that you were also quite tempted when it came up for sale.

Indeed. I loved the era of Joni Mitchell when he was in the band. An extremely versatile player.

I agree, except for the low contrast of the hands. They are almost the same color as the dials, and they disappear to my eyes. Classy color range, but not very practical.

Something rather unfancy that I really enjoy, Revue Thommen Airspeed.

I have been tempted by previous Kurono Tokyo, but this is the best yet. Delicious.

I have great respect for Steve Albini. Several local musician friends recorded with him (Neurosis for example, a heavy group from San Jose, CA.) He was always focused on what the artists wanted, not...

Ludwig - which represented my first foray into less-affordables back in 2011 (purchased second-hand for a bargain of course, because I'm cheap that way.) Still no regrets, it's one of the treasured...

I figured he just wore whatever company paid for the product placement. :think: :laughing:

Quiet here on the wrist parade today. Hopefully everyone is out having fun. Light rain this morning on the left coast, in a soft springy sort of way.

It's that feeling when instruments we have had since forever now became vintage. I want to say "I'm still using it! I'm not done yet!" The fetishizing of vintage Fenders and certain Gibsons has...

Yeah, gotta agree with Raza: Credor (although the humor is that Raza makes it clear he doesn't like it... his problem not yours...)

The subtle differences in case size, text and weight are the reasons I waited to find a good used 214270 instead of the new 40mm. The differences are subtle, but 39mm is my Goldilocks zone. It's the...
