My bad...it's a matter of reflex estimation I suppose. I over estimated my sloth like reflexes, at precisely the same time I underestimated your cat like reflexes...I think.
Oh very much so! Especially now that I'm regaining my sense of touch. It's cool to play and not feel like I'm doing it with dead sticks. It is certainly "better" tonally. I sound much less like Freddie Krueger anyway. Thanks Charlie!
In order to be old and wise we must first be young and foolish...kinda thing.
I have always been into the guitarist with the "single coil" type tones, but I did love the shredders as well...The older I get, the more I revert back to the more mellow/bluesy tones...unless I'm in a bad mood, then I like to crank the Pantera, Motorhead, Slayer, Metallica, etc...I get the strangest looks? You know when I'm a one man mosh pit in my back yard. Ehh, what do ya do? Haters gonna hate...
