    Part I - Last Breath

    Yeah, I think I can get the artist to add a few skulls. I always forget to cut the count-ins!! Thanks for the reminder. Good thing this is just a first mix to gauge reception....

    PRS DGT SE Muddy Tone / HX Stomp tone comparison

    Here's a video of mine through my Helix Rack. I have yet to experience any "muddiness". Mine has stock pickups. Do you use your low/high cuts on your IRs or Cab models? Experiment. Also, on your input block you have the opportunity to change input impedance. This is a great parameter for...

    Space - The Final Frontier.

    LOVE IT!!!! Sometimes I wish I had more space, but everything is done DI, so I don't NEED much space. I like your space - it's clean and open. I bet that's great when you're spending a ton of hours in there.

    DGT SE Goodness

    Yes sir. The SE DGT is a beast. I'm serious when I say that moving my MEV for the 4 SE guitars (plus cash) was the BEST thing I did in a long time. While mine is "upgraded" I could have CERTAINLY kept it stock and been happy. So much so, that I didn't change pickups. The DGT "S" pickups...

    Ever have a day when you just hate the sound coming out of your amp?

    Yes. With every Mesa amp I ever owned.

    How long did it take you to become proficient at playing the guitar?

    I am an educator by profession. I deal with 10 and 11 year olds all day. My daily task is to push them toward proficiency according to State-determined criteria. A "student" is determined to be proficient when they have acquired a functional literacy level for their mental development, Throw...

    How Long You Been Playing?

    I, too, started young - 7. My first guitar ever was a little nylon string from Walgreens that my mom got with S&H Green Stamps. Wrote my first song on that guitar. It was called "I Come From Cuba" t was inspired by the movie Scarface starring Al Pacino. Saw it in my early years. My friend...

    What guitar is Keith playing?

    There was, once, a killer single cut with that same setup. It, too, belonged to Mr. URBAN. I wish I had bought it when it was for sale...

    New Song - 1st mix

    Thanks all!! I got the vocals to Part I this past weekend. I am working on mixing Part I and rearranging Part II to flow more logically. I'll be working on those mixes and then putting the Parts together. I'll post the next evolution of the song as soon as it is ready.

    What pedals do you use?

    HELL YEAH!!! That's a real pedal board!! It still has two too many for me, but having an "overloaded" board looks more badass to the crowd and rival guitarists in the other area bands!! 😆

    What pedals do you use?

    After reading through this post, I have found myself trying to utilize more "pedals". I just got done cutting a solo where I used a Uni-Vibe and some Space Echo. Both seem rather unruly, but that made the solo have more fire...
