    Why the hatred?

    I think some of it is that we're (people in general) so used to certain sounds in recordings. It's the same way for bass. There are lots of engineers that can seat a P or J bass really easily in a mix and less so with some of the boutique instruments. Other people just can't find the right voice...

    The One That Got Away

    A 1997 Telecaster. I traded it for a Les Paul that I traded for my S2 Standard 24. Earlier this week the guy I traded it to was selling it and I just missed it. I totally dig my PRS, but the Tele would have been purchased without question or approval. Heh. There was also a core Mira that I...

    Do you play other Instruments than Guitar?

    I started out playing Cello from 3rd grade through my freshman year of college. I borrowed one for a song on an album an old band put out. I can still play and have been wanting to pick one up, but I always end up buying guitars instead. I picked up bass in 10th grade to play in the jazz band...

    Do you ever...?

    I was in love with a non PRS recently. I see it sold so crisis averted.

    Voicemail that you don't want.

    Dude, when I plugged it in I looked at my bass player and said, "Half of me absolutely wants this amp to blow up." Ha!

    It's a modded Jet City JCA50H. It's nothing outwardly special, but I tried it on a whim when amp shopping a few years back and it blew me away... especially at the price point. If it had been ruined I probably would have gone for a Soldano Hot Rod 50.

    Hooray! My amp works just fine. I gave it a whirl last night.

    All of the buildings in the area were built in the late 1800s or early 1900s. I'd imagine there are many spontaneous items that appear. Heh.

    Voicemail that you don't want.

    Yeah, I have my Whammy pedal apart and drying out right now. My drummer saved it from the puddle after snapping the pic. He did inform me that he poured a cup of water out of it. Inside everything still looks fine, but there was some water in the selector switch. I'm giving it another couple of...

    Nope, they were all safely at home.

    My bass player has been renting this space for the better part of 25 years. He doesn't know where that chair came from either.

    The bright side is I might need a new amp and new amps are cool. The downside is that is money I had earmarked for another guitar.

    A water pipe burst and flooded your rehearsal space. Ughhhhhhhh

    OT: What are you watching on TV?

    Barry was quite good. I just finished Season 1. I think Season 2 comes out shortly. Finally started watching True Detective. I've heard Season 2 isn't worth it, but 1 and 3 are great. I also started watching Crashing. Pretty good 3 episodes in.
