The Quint pic was actually a joke from a thread in the Norlin section. A poster had stated that Tommy Shaw was such an awesome Les Paul guitar player and should be as he invented the humbucker pickup... it’s why they call them Shaw Buckers....Lol:rofl:.....all kinds of wrong there

We all know Seth Lover invented the humbucker pickup and Tim Shaw later did his take of the pup. Tommy wasn’t even born yet in 1956.

I said you got that wrong dude it was Robert.... and started using the Quint pic as my avatar.

99% correct.

Tommy was born in '53, but I doubt he knew what a humbucker was for another few years after it was invented ;)

You’re absolutely right amigo.

Could you picture 3 year old Tommy at a pup winder with an ohm tester.

Child labor laws were lax back then.

Dave,never under estimate the power of great avatars,Riv had them,Cab and his ULTRA MACHO Tele and cig,you have great avatars I remember the Martin Lan:


Names and avatars make a difference. I went with the blank canvas 80 Norlin it was a good choice. Means many things to many people,most dislike Norlins,their loss.
I have to agree with you.
Straight from the *What the F delete this thread* that Dave just brought back:

That’s as far as I ever got in that movie. I tried watching twice, gave up both times.

Maybe someday I’ll try again. I really like Gene Hackman, and I think he got an Oscar for that one.
Truth be told, the movie doesn’t hold up that well. It’s just not that good.
