    Oh shit Waxahatchee released 3 covers with an anniversary deluxe version of their album from last year. The Lucinda Williams cover is especially nice :)

    Bonus: Did not know that First Aid Kit did a live concert tribute for Leonard Cohen

  2. You just need 34 1486 and 34 3675 per amp, if you are going with "all original" parts, so 200 is a lot more than you would need.

     

    Oh yah I know. I'm an inveterate parts/gear hoarder so I want to keep some around just for the who knows what. And also in case they are used in other designs. I don't ever want to pay 6 dollars+ a piece if I had a chance to pay 3 dollars :) It seems like they will appreciate for sure so if I can afford it now.

     

    Also who knows what I might need to trade for in the future :)

  3. I have 2 cases, 2 sets of original boards. Originally I planned on trading a kit to a builder to get mine built. 

     

    It sounds like I should look to acquiring group buy boards or if you guys ever produce new boards please reach out :)

     

    Also talking to GeorgeP it sounds like besides transistors there are resistors and capacitors that are becoming hard to score too :/ 

  4. Hi folks. Been awhile... deepak stoked the hunger for finally gathering some of the parts for the original boards that I have. I missed the boat with some parts that were being sold in the classifieds unfortunately, but I'm looking to buy parts from a guy who posted on head-fi.

     

    I understand there's no way to guarantee the parts are genuine based on a picture... but was wondering if anyone would be willing to comment if these look genuine.

     

    the guy says they were purchased from singapore in 2005

  5. but it starts out black :) 

     

    blessingx... i did some experimentation with freds and sous vide-ing it in butter and finishing it on the grill. first few attempts were over grilled or undergrilled but when i finally got it dialed in about 2 minutes per side on a super hot grill it was pretty insane. has the nice fred's crust but nearly melts in your mouth sous vide texture.

  6. Dreadhead sucks about the crash. Glad you and the bike are okay.

     

    Btw, tried to discern by reading many pages of posts, but could you give me some details of your bikes? I remember you had some kinda insane Giant bike, but curious what else you have. Not really in the market, but it's good to know what you hardcore guys roll around with. It sounds like quite a few of you have insane builds now (VPI, Nate, Justin's cannondale looks great too).

     

    I think at some point I will get a decent road bike as I'm pretty satisfied with my mountain bike (Too terrified to really do any serious mountain biking) and commuter... might make sense to do a nice road bike in the future. 

  7. Ah wow... I'm always 1-2 years behind head-case in pursuits. I just started crossfitting awhile back and looks like everyone's moved on (Including Justin!!).

     

    So sorry to hear about your crash and best of luck on the path to recovery.

     

    I got a specialized tricross elite awhile back for commuter purposes. Pretty much just road it to and from crossfit, but outfitted it for SF bike riding as I'd like to get to places with it. Not sure I'm brave enough to bike in the city though, but practice starts this weekend. Probably won't go as deep into riding as it looks like you guys are, but chances are in a couple of years I'll be chasing your trails while you've moved onto some sort of flying.
