thread_title: Spoiler complaint

message: It sounds like someone took the plot summary from a t.v. version.  I read the original 1979, Omni magazine edition (although I've read it once or twice in anthologies since then) and at the end, the protagonist does NOT encounter a cabin filled with bipedal beings wearing his face, but rather is captured by a group of bipedal Sandkings, who drag him to their Queen, which is shaped like his head ie., he is about to be fed into a giant version of his own mouth.  That's how the story actually ends, as opposed to the summary provided in the article.  Hopefully, someone will correct that error.  I may get around to it myself, but I'd like to re-read "The Sandkings" before I start editing the content of the plot summary.  I know my recollection is fundamentally correct, but after all these years, I don't really feel qualified to re-write a faulty plot summary. KevinOKeeffe (talk) 08:44, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Plot Summary is Inaccurate 

message: I have just read this tale in an anthology edited by Orson Scott Card. Just after beginning to read it, I recalled having read it several years ago in a magazine lent to me by a friend. But, after having read it in the anthology, I had the impression that the the version I had read in the magazine ended differently, though I couldn't remember the details. The version in the anthology does end as commented by 207.38.208.140, but I don't know how it ended in the magazine; I think it was very different (not only with the minor difference stated by KevinOKeeffe. Does anyone have the original story at hand? (I must also say that I have only read both versions as translated in Spanish). Ignacio González (talk) 23:02, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Because of the overlooked products noted above, anyone interested in saving this ought begin by either adding those items, or clearly defining IN THE LEDE what this scrapheap is supposed to actually include. After that, the few survivors should turn attention to adding FOR EVERY ENTRY the timespan of each listed item (at least the years); if that minimum cannot be established, then I'm justified in thinking that maybe people are just making all this stuff up.
For what it's worth: As with so many manufacturers, Fender actually MAKES very little.

Talk:Marshall Bluesbreaker

message: The reissue Bluesbreaker does not now nor has it ever used 6V6 valves, and it certainly does not use a different socket. It uses 5881/6L6 valves depending on the market and when it was sold. In fact, the only issue preventing the use of KT66 valves was that between 1989 and 2002 the reissue's cabinet was too narrow at only 9"/22.5cm to accept these valves easily. Since 2002 the cabinet is 10.5"/~26cm deep and can comfortably accept the KT66s of vintage proportion. If the amp had been fitted with 6V6s it may have only been rated for perhaps 25W, whereas with a 5881/6L6/KT66 and its current transformer it puts out 32-38W.
I am removing this part as although it does have a reference, it is inaccurate. The Doyle reference book while an excellent resource has been shown to be inaccurate in many of its claims due to scarcity of information available to the author.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.120.161.6 (talk) 12:40, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

message: I really think this article should be renamed to properly follow the correct nomenclature for this amp. It was only ever informally referred to as the Bluesbreaker amp before Marshall re-issued the amp in the 1980s, and most of the article refers to Clapton's use of it prior to that. It's almost as if the Vox AC30 article was titled "Vox Hank Marvin" or "Vox Beatles Amp".
Obviously the common nickname for it can be clarified in the lede, and a redirect set up. I just think this should be more accurately titled. Verlaine76 (talk) 12:13, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Princeton 112 Plus 

message: I don't have my notes handy, but none of this should be too difficult to source, I'm going to note it before I forget AGAIN, and it might meantime be of interest to Fender fans.
The early version of the Princeton Chorus was built at the Sunn plant, which Fender had moved to Lake Oswego. These (and related solid-state amps) may be identified by serial numbers that begin "LO-".
The "red knob" thing is a myth. The intent had been to make the cosmetics closer to those of the M-80 Series (also produced at Lake Oswego) intended for a younger customer base playing "crunchier" music. The electronics are identical. The main result is that the "black knob" version is often a steal. I imagine that based off the present WP misinformation, somewhere there's people looking at used PC's, seeing black knobs, and cluelessly ignoring the "Made in USA" labels.
People hated the red knobs at the time; Fender fixed the problem by replacing the knobs. Aside from that, the only difference is that the "black knob" uses the classic silver/gray grillcloth, the "red knob" having the charcoal cloth shading it closer to the M-80s (which eventually used outright black cloth). You will occasionally see a PC with black knobs and dark cloth. 
The red knobs/dark cloth also appeared on other models, such as the Pro 185 (1989 until 1993 when the classic colors reappeared). Weeb Dingle (talk) 01:14, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

message: decent looking article now, nice amount of detail. 
but good luck finding a citation for the relationship between this amp design & the near identical topology of the original marshall amps (n.b. & NOT the later high gain models, which adapted the first stage to allow the amp to sound overdriven in & of itself, where the early "plexi" & the fender amps all needed to be driven hard at their input to achieve distortion); this circuit design sort of suggests itself, based on the characteristics of the available valves (tubes) & the functional requirement. if jim marshall didn't copy it outright, he would probably have ended up with something similar anyway, along with all the me-too amps that followed, from sound city & the rest.

message: This article presently gives the source of the river as Tamlung Tso, however the map attached to this article  in the journal of Himalayan Club  identifies a slightly more distal source shown as 'Khubi Gangri'.

For another view see: .  Placing your mouse cursor at the crosshairs in the image center produces a caption "Angri Glacier". "Khubri Gangri" may be synonymous with its terminus.  Placing your mouse cursor over the small lake directly above, near the top, produces the caption "Tamlung Tso", the source identified in this article.  However if accepted rules are followed to define a River source, the glacier terminus would seem to be a more definitive source for the river than the lake. Comments?

This misses the mark; the movie is a spoof on the motivational gurus that first became a feature of Western pop culture in the 1960s.
