Also, pretty much any tank that is bought as part of a complete "kit", such as Wally World and others sell, likely has tempered sides. If the tank is purchased separately it is likely not tempered. Go figure. The tank I drilled is a...

    pay cap?

    I strongly and vehemently disagree. This is still(for a while anyway)a capitalist based economy. People should make as much money as they are willing to work for.

    Question for guitar players

    If you go with a low wattage(5 to 10 watts) tube amp, you won't neccessarily have to play loud to get a good sound. There are actually several good little tube amps to be had in the $300 range.
