In all honesty, didn't care for that tone. Thin and nasally.

Great playing though!

It's the strings.

PRS SE 22 w/stock pups, and D'Addario 10's. It's a fairly cheap guitar. I got it used for $340 from some elderly gent on a guitar forum. I guess I'm just used to it.

Really though, I do need a Tele. Gimme yours.

That's pretty ****ing special when you can Google a guitar model and yours makes top row, and honestly, of all the Barnbusters on display there, yours is by far the most appealing. Just enough knot to make it unique, but not enough knot to look diseased like the first Barnbuster there. Never sell that guitar.

Those are some sweet rides. I've been in contact with the people over at DNA Guitars, and as soon as I get some breathing room (just bought a new SUV, moved to a new place and all that), I'll be pulling the trigger on a custom tele. It'll even have my logo on it.

You need to wrap it in tinfoil to disable the Google Image Crawler.

It was my 50th birthday present from Lin. It ain't going anywhere. Not sure if I mentioned this but Kirn talked me into a super fat neck. It's 1" thick along the entire length. It took me all of one session with it to get comfy and the fatness of the tone is so well worth it.

Funny interview with the man here:

I've been playing with Ernie Ball Power Slinkys for the first time lately (11 - 48's) and I'm quite impressed. At this point I'm pretty sure I've played all Slinky types from Super to Beefy and Power has proven to be a nice middle ground. Thick enough to handle tuning a full step down nicely but not too thick to comfortably bend and solo with.

I've been playing piano for nearly 20 years now, on a variety of instruments, and apart from the beautiful, but impractical $10,000 Yamaha upright at my parents' house, the best keys I have played are the ones I have now - Roland F-20. If you are looking for a keyboard, fork out the extra bucks for a Roland. They're worth it.

Quality Cucumber

Here's what I have, instrument-wise:

Guitars:
Schecter C-1 Hellraiser
Schecter C-1 FR (currently on loan to my girlfriend, who I am slowly teaching to play)
Ibanez RG-7421XL (needs some TLC; previous owner sucked, gonna put a Dimarzio Liquifire/Crunchlab set in)
Agile AL3010SE

Mandolins:
Loar LM-220
Kentucky KM-630
Harmonia (Chinese no-name) mandola (Works better than expected, but no truss rod and is difficult to play fast.)

Basses:
Ibanez five string... Not sure about the model. It's an SR that was in production in 1995.
Brice HXB-406 Fretless
SX Ursa 2 six string

Woodwinds:
Yamaha student clarinet that I haven't touched in forever.
Recorders (Yamaha, Aulos, and Woodnote; tenor, alto, soprano, sopranino)
Pennywhistles (various brands including Clarke, Generation, Susato; low to high A B♭ C D E♭ G)
Transverse ocarinas (alto and soprano C)

Synths:
Arturia Minibrute
Some cheapo 80's Casios that I'm going to circuit-bend and probably break.

Percussion:
2 Darbukas (one clay, one aluminum)
Meinl claves
Guiro

I'm stuck with practice amps right now, since I fried my Peavey Stereo Chorus and my Dean Markley DMC-80. I run my guitars through a Zoom G9.2TT effects processor, so at least I can feed that to the board. I'm not really sure what my bass amp is. It's a 1x15 combo of some sort, and it's f*cking loud.

In celebration of forever alone day I went and got me a new guitar



Never owned an SG before, but I'm really happy with the tone so far. Now if only my middle finger wasn't so swollen I could do a little bit more with it.
