These are a couple of pretty funny wrench comments from a Phish.net thread a couple days ago about the Parish auction:
"Hey that wrench tightened a bolt on a frame that held a stage that Jerry Garcia stood on, man! When you tighten a bolt with it, it's like you're playing Dark Star."
"I looked at those listings, and it seems like he might have had one legitimate wrench, but then thought, "Who's going to verify the authenticity of a wrench?" and went out to his garage to grab a couple more."
I have a good Jerry pedal story .. at the end of a gig this guy is checking out my pedals taking pictures etc. I told him it was cool and if he wanted any pedal tips I would gladly help out... he asked which was the Jerry pedal I automatically thought he meant the mutron. I said do you mean the sound on Shakedown street. He said no what pedal were you using during Bertha that makes you sound exactly like Jerry. I said I don’t use any pedals during Bertha. But he continued to insist there was a pedal that gave you the Bertha tone. At that point I was done.
There are some inferior Mutrons made in the 80s after the original company got bought and died that you should avoid if looking for one (to play, not be buried with)

The Bertha Tone is a better band name than Jerry's Pedal. That is all.
