Sharing the same Nuffield body shell with the Wolseley 15/50 and 4/44 and a development of the MG ZA. The ZB had a more powerful 69 bhp engine and a higher axle ratio. The Varitone model had a wrap around rear window and the two tone paint work.

It all works as planned. Back to blade pickups from Joe Barden. Flat wound strings. 1meg pots to wide open. Bass cut like on G&L guitars. Lower toggle is a varitone that cuts mids at different levels. Sounds awesome.

I have come up with a new method of street photography, wear a huge parker and hide all but your lens from view. Then snipe away, stops you getting beaten up when you take photos like this.
They were going nuts for a long time but this guy just wasnt having it. He stared blankly at the man shouting at him, not budging and keeping that incredibly intimidating hard look on his face....

Similar to the earlier ZA Magnette but with a more powerful engine and a higher axle ratio, The Varitone version had two tone paint and a wrap around rear window. Some had the optional two pedal Manumatic transmission

The controls on my guitar are probably my best design yet. The front toggle (top right of the picture) is a six-way pickup selector that works great with the three pickups. The pickups are three noiseless Lindy Fralin P92 pickups. The neck and middle are soft and the bridge is hot wound and twangy. The controls then have 1 volume for each pickups, with the middle counter set so that I can turn one pickup down all the way but the others keep their volume. Finally that rear switch (next to the closest knob) selects one of 5 capacitors like a varitone circuit, but it's ran through the knob near it so it acts like a classic tone control for the whole guitar. The way you use it is you set the knob at the average tone you want, then flipping the 6 way picks darker or brighter capacitors at that tone. Then there's one setting that is totally open with no tone cap at all.

So this turned out pretty cool. It's kind of like a Rangemaster with a Varitone. The red knob is a four-position rotary switch. It chooses between 4n7, 10n, 22n and 47n input capacitors. The original Rangemasters used 5n, but that's not a common value these days, so most people use 4n7 because it's close enough (for rock 'n roll, yo!). The 10n is much nicer, IMO. Still kind of thin and mean, but with more mean. The 4n7 is a little anemic when you hear it A/B'd with the 10n. The 22n is probably the perfect, "Iommi" cap. It's not quite full-range, but has much more complex mids. Then the 47n is pretty much full-range and a little tubby for my tastes.
Very cool. I was thinking this prototype would give me a good idea where to change the choices of capacitors, but I think these four may be just about perfect. Which is odd, because I usually have to do it wrong 37 times before I get what I'm hoping to get. Heh...
VAD965 1958 MG Magnette ZB Varitone Saloon
Amberley Museum and Heritage Centre.
Vintage Vehicle Show - 12th October 2014
The back is stamped: Varitone Print August 1934, but I believe it was taken much earlier. It looks Victorian to me. Am I wrong? The tree topper is a butterfly.
The MG Magnette was produced between 1953 and 1968 . It was manufactured in two build series, the ZA and ZB of 1953 through to 1958 and the Mark III and Mark IV of 1959 through to 1968, both using a modified Wolseley body and an Austin engine. This is a luxurious "Baritone" version with two-tone paintwork.

Wahkeena Falls in the Columbia River Gorge is a 242 foot cascade that ends at Fairy falls. This is the bottom of the cascade where you can just make out the main part of the falls in the distance.
Wahkeena means “most beautiful” in the Yakima Indian language. I hope this small shot of its stream shows why.
I found that DxO really improved this shot, but adding a little varitone filter managed to cause the colors to “pop” more. The only issue was I had to really protect the highlights in the water on this one.
I’m experimenting with the 16x9 cropping. I hope this managed to look a little okay. A slight bit of rotation allowed me to crop out the trail on the left and still preserve one of the two trees in frame.
