Punkus Ex Machina
This post brought to you by the letter G!
G is for Gear.. Gear is Good...Gear makes me Giddy. It's true, I've always been a gearhead. Back in Jr. High and High School I was On the AV crew (does that not just scream GEEEEK!!). My first real after school job was working at the town library as an AV Page. So whether it's computer innards, the new Shimano Dura-Ace 10 Speed, a new bass amp by SWR or what class ship is zipping across the screen on any of the Star Treks; You know I'm diggin' it!! I know there must be more like minded individuals out there..somewhere. So if any of you happen to read my blog and want to know about my gear, here's the poop:


What I Ride On:

I currently ride a Yellow 2002 Cannondale R500. I've replaced the stock Conty Ultra 3000 with Michelin Axial Carbons since I was getting way too may flats. With the Michelin's I'm happy to report I've gone over 2000 miles with 0 flats. Also this week I got rid of the stock Tiagra front derailleur and replaced it with a 105 since the original hadn't worked right since I bought the bike...now it shifts like buddah!! This should hold me over 'till I get my new R3000 this summer.

What I Play On:

In the Bass Dept. I play a 4 string Warwick Thumb Bass. In my rack I have a GK 800RB, Line 6 Bass Pod Pro and a Symetrix 501 compressor. This is all plugged into 2 Joes cabs loaded with EV Prolines: a 2x10 and a 1x15.

What I Frag On:

My computer rig is a Asus K8VSE Deluxe married to a AMD Athlon(64) XP 3400+, 1Gig of Corsair DDR400, ATI 9800Pro 128Mb Video, Creative Audigy sound card and a 20" SGI Monitor.

So, that's my deal in the world of gear....damn I love this stuff!
