Just read that one of my all time favorite guitarists, Jeff Beck, has passed away suddenly from meningitis. Wow, I'm kind of heartbroken over this! They should rename the whammy bar "the Beck bar". Rest in peace Jeff.

Yes, the first of the "Big Three" to go. Just listening to some Blow By Blow to mark his passing. How do you ever top "Cause We've Ended As Lovers"? What a unique musician who proudly went his own way and did his own thing.
Yes, the first of the "Big Three"
By big 3 do you mean the 3 Yardbirds guitarists? (Page, Beck, Clapton)

Yes ... but even bigger, for me, the three legendary guitarists, at least from that era.By big 3 do you mean the 3 Yardbirds guitarists? (Page, Beck, Clapton)

I consider Hendrix and Zappa (and probably Gilmour too) to be from that era also.

Wowza, what's the one on the bottom? I'm not an IEMs guy, but that's gorgeous.

Fair choices. Have to admit listening to Jimi most of the time is a chore for me. Not sure why. And Gilmour ... well, I've got him all over my home office.I consider Hendrix and Zappa (and probably Gilmour too) to be from that era also.

I'm not generally big on Hendrix either really to be honest but if someone said "big 3" from ~1967 or so his name would surely enter my mind.

RIP Jeff Beck.
And don't forget Garcia.

I'm sitting here wondering if anyone might consider parting with just the leather case to the MMR Thummim. I can't quite swing new IEMs just yet, but I could use a bigger case for my current ones, and the design really grabbed me.

I too have more cables than iems. Cable addicts "anonymous"? I think that might be more embarrassing than MBP ProAt this point, I'm just collecting cables with nothing to connect it to LOL
I briefly had "MacBook Pro 16in." listed as my source under my signature - until I decided to take it down to save me from embarrassment![]()
My left hand knocking my right hand away from the PM buttonWell, I thought I was an aspiring high end cable person, but I'm not. I need the funds for other things. My custom cable is up for sale:

This is comparable to the eletech aeneid. 22awg pure silver with gold plating, palladium connectors, full fabric covering in bright blue, 4 wire with matching metal Egyptian y splitter and end jack. Hoping someone here appreciates it and can use it with some higher end IEMs.
