Dave1291 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 David Russell Gordon Davies (born 3 February 1947) is an English guitarist, singer and songwriter. He was the lead guitarist and backing vocalist for the English rock band the Kinks, which also featured his elder brother Ray Davies. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 as a member of the Kinks. Davies is prolific with his innovative nature on the electric guitar, specifically in being one of the first to utilize electric guitar distortion and exposing the effect to the mainstream. His signature distorted power chord riffs on songs would heavily influence future heavy metal and punk rock acts. In 2003, Davies was ranked 91st in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".[1] Some good stuff right here! 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in this case we´re talking about a little shop near Berlin that specialises in bringing back to life all those heavy, old HiFi- contraptions we like so much. So, now I´m down that rabbit-hole... Have to look for a matching tuner, maybe. Those things are as expensive or even more than the 8150... 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to prove I'm no total nutcase: see pictures. Wostyn Mustard is owned by a distant cousin of my wife. It is a family run company since 1869. The socalled Iron Arm Beer has their mustard added during brewing. Kind of like how the sandwich revolutionized eating! Just the beer, then the This thread blew up while I was out, Good Tunes! Kenwood's could push inefficient speakers back in the day. That one looks nice too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the KT 815 or KT 917 are still over the 800 € level . Then you can use it for another 7 years before analog radio is switched off completely in Germany. Analogue public radio stations are expected to be switched off in 2030. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
