WHAT? Wait a minute, let the ringing die down!

Some explanation required, back in the mid to late seventies one of my band mates owned a small music shop. His big thing was collecting Marshall's and HiWatts. He had, at one time, 30 Marshall heads and 60 cabinets. I traded him a 66 Chevelle for the Marshall, Orange, the two cabinets and a silverface Twin. Way too much power for such an impressionable mind. Well, about a year later, I spent about ten years traveling around the U.S. just living life. Thinking that I would probably end up home after a short time I left most of my gear with my parents. When I moved back to Pittsburgh my parents had moved and told me that they had thrown out my stuff because they had no place to keep it! They also had no way to get ahold of me! I just let it go and didn't think about it again. Then, about three years ago, they moved again and told me to come and get rid of some trash for them. Imagine my surprise when among the trash I found the Marshall, the cabinets and the Orange! My dad said they forgot they had them stored in the basement! I brought them home and found that, other than some mold, they all worked!
