[Fmpro] Gear Grief?

[Jeremy Delamarter]

Thanks all for your kind words in this trying time....

While my tongue was somewhere in the vicinity of my cheek when I originally 
posted, I do miss my Triton. I once was given a Helpinstill piano. It was in 
lousy condition, but I always swore I would fix it up and rock out with it. 
Never did. Sold it. Kicking myself ever since. Or the accordian I pawned.  
The Neve channel strip I traded for a cold Michelob on a warm Seattle 
day....
