BCR Greg

Call me today, I can help.

The Wildhearts need a live album.

Antigone Rising Avenged Sevenfold Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Silvertide. I started by fixing their guitars, now I am a fan. They are in the next M Knight Shamalan moovie, Nick Perri informed me yesterday. Bruce, the singer is such a cool guy. While we were hanging on the bus after the gig, he was going around cleaning, taking out the trash, emptying ashtrays. I asked him why he was doing it, he said it made him relax after the gig and that he knew that it helped the other guys if he kept the place neatened up. Great bunch of Kids, those puppies. Check the new Rolling Stone, they are in there. *typing is hard. I prove that often*

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Trans Black on a Standard is cool. You got cuter, didn't you?

She will pay, for the rest of her life. All that matters is that Austin is okay and WANTS to talk about it. That is a good sign. Great to hear of it, buddy. Give him a manly slap on the shoulders from Ol' Uncle, willya?

78 Sunburst, bought in February 1978 at the tender age of 14. I passed on a Goldtop Les Paul that was CHEAPER, because I had seen Tull the night before. It was stolen in 1992, and I'm still looking for it........

AWRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man Oh MAN, I was worried! I sat there at dinner last night looking at my two daughters and I felt so BAD for everyone that was missing kids. Tell him Uncle Greg is glad that he's okay, willya?

Well said.

Indeed.

Next year. It's THEIR company, not ours. The fact that we have had so much contact and generosity from them should not be minimized by this sort of stuff. How many of us have picked our own wood for the guitars from OTHER companies, in person. Many of us have picked LOTS of wood. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Times are changing, and they could easily say "no" to any future events. Jol is going out on tour in the fall, so that is a reality. He's also going out in the spring, and we look forward to him coming to see us. Next subject...

Cajun, If you want me to come down and help, say the word.

Now THAT is funny.

Conjecture is smoke. They know the reasons, nobody else does. I, for one, wouldn't mind having you guys seeing my Designer guitar in progress, because you'll all crap your pants! Next year, we'll do it again and all will be forgotten. I've been to every one and don't plan on missing any.

And none of us like you from that point on. I KEEED, I KEEED!!!!

Neither of the two mentioned above were original members. Ted, Serial and Cmatthes, Paults, myself, HamStd, Steve"I was here, too, GUYS!!!!"Haynie and the OTHER originals are still here.

Man, don't EVER use that comparison again. I feel funny in my middle now.

Gale's guitar is awesome, and I don't really like Newports.

They are not humbucking, they are single coils. Very nice pickups.

Traditional humbuckers are wired in series, the signal goes thru both coils and gets loaded down and loses high end. By wiring them in parallel, they function as two single coils in close proximity, keeping the humbucking effect and all the highs that a single has.

The Rio Babybuckers sound great when wired in parallel, instead of series like most humbuckers.

The guy's incompetent. Regardless of your feeling for him, he is not up to the task. To have this degree of difficulty getting a good sound out front is silly. My experience has been that guitar tones are the easiest to get, just run the channel flat and let it rip. How are the vocals out front?

He's compressing the crap out of you. Tell him to run you WITHOUT COMPRESSION. Again, GO OUT FRONT, have someone else hit your pedals while you are playing your parts. Listen for yourself. This guy sounds like he has gear that he doesn't understand. I occasionally compress snares and hihats, alway compress acoustic guitars, NEVER compress electric guitars.

Gorgeous!

Can you tell? HA! I am RIGHT where I should be in life.

When it goes, we'll find that MF and give him a blanket party. With chains.
