Lots of life changes over the past couple of years.  The dust is finally settling.  Can't put all of that experience to waste.  Within it, there is a lot of inspiration.  Add to that slowing down, and trying to think melodically.  Thinking melodically is a new thing for me.  If I came up with...

...and Merry Christmas, to all.  :occasion14:

I personally found this very creative, and very hilarious.  Enjoy. https://www.facebook.com/youfindmusic/videos/1692181104378378/

Anyone like Corrosion of Conformity? If you've never heard them, I recommend anything off of their albums "Blind," and "Wiseblood." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_of_Conformity

What was Warmoth using for satin neck finishes back in 2008? Was it polyurethane? Thanks.

If I can nail the next 15 seconds of this song, I might be able to learn the whole d@mn*d thing!  I never thought that would be possible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN40xg7V-CQ

Highly doubtful I can learn the solo, with pentuplets and septuplets at 168 bpm, so, I call this done.  Actually, I was surprised I could learn this much of it.  Total blast to play.  One minor mistake, oh well.  Never played with a wah pedal before.  What a hoot! Back to the iPad for...

Working on Satch's "Up in the Sky."  All parts learned at 100% speed.  Just piecing them together, now.  Here's the first 39 seconds.  Those harmonics in the beginning were a B#$ch to get clean!  On a different note, I've never done 16th notes at 147 bpm before.  That took some work, too.  As...

Hey all, does anyone here have any experience with putting NOS vintage tubes into modern amps?  I thought I would share my experience, as it is all in the quest for the holy grail of "that tone," right? I have a Peavey JSX 2x12 combo that I got back in 2008.  After getting it, because of the...

Something different for me. I actually sat down and spent a day and half composing a two-minute instrumental over a YouTube backing track.  This is in contrast to recording the first or second take of an improvised jam.  The backing track, to me, has kind of an Indie-Pop feel to it. ...

This is one I was actually going to use a backing track and mix it with the guitar parts.  But none of the backing tracks I found were full-length!  So, back to playing along with the studio recording.  Oh well, it's kind of like playing a song with training wheels.  :laughing7: Warmoth...

Trying to be a robot.  :icon_biggrin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io9WOi5xWMY

Apparently Rainbow/Dio bassist Jimmy Bain died. Too many are going in such a short period of time. RIP.

I'm sure we all go into Guitar Center on occasion.  Love them or hate them, they can be convenient for a few things.  Many of you probably know about "Guitar Center Garage," their tech service, where they will change pickups, level/crown/polish, etc.  Where I lived previously, in Redlands, CA, I...

Cover of Gary Moore's "The Loner."  I omitted the intro and outro portions.  Warmoth swamp ash Strat.  Canary neck with macassar ebony freboard.  Played on the bridge pickup (EMG 85). It's funny, the official video of this song shows him playing a Jackson SL1, then an SL2H.  So I was going to...

My attempt at a Southern Rock style solo in E Mixolydian, using the "1st of the 2nds" GOTM for December 2015.  Bridge pickup:  DiMarzio Tone Zone (brightens up well in Swamp Ash). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAYfGxaYj28

Died in his sleep on the tour bus.  48 years old.  RIP.

My wife and I are moving to Sacramento in a couple of weeks.  Does anyone know of any good guitar techs there?  Or in Northern California, in general? Thanks.
