Allcoast Oldtimers! When Was the Term "Acid Rod" First Used Here?
I'm getting to be an old geezer and the memories are getting fuzzier so help me out here! Allcoast was the first place I used the term Acid rod to describe the spiral wrapped rods that I do. When was the first time it was used? I am thinking mid '90s but don't remember, later? Earlier?
If you have an idea, please chime in!
I don't know how far back the archives go back.
Aloha and mahalo!

Jim, the term was being thrown around when I first got internet access in 1998.

Oy vey. . .
When was the first time the Acid rod was mentioned here on Allcoast?
And, when did we meet in the Squidco parking lot to look at my Acid rod?

Just a guess Jim, but I first found Allcoast in Jan of 96, so I would say that it was in mid 96 in the second version of the board.
and that it was pre Tabi HO.

Thanks, man, I was thinking about that time. Tabi Ho?
What's that? First rule of Tabi Ho, we don't talk about Tabi Ho. . .

Hell you should know, I think you are the one that started it. I started wrappin acid for the Carnes boyz and haven't stopped yet. That's been what? 20 years or more.

Yes, I did start it! Not the spiral wrap, but the West Coast, SoCal version, "The Acid Rod"!

Yep! And "It" Lives!
"It" has moved offshore to an undisclosed island off the Baja California coast!
But I digress. . .
I used Acid rods on the first, and I'll fish Acid rods on the next!

I thought it was you. Remember when we met in SD before my RP trip, that had to be 20 years back. You showed off one of your typical purple haze Hendrix rods, definately on acid! And look what has started? I wonder if Mark G. knows this story?
