i'm a little upset by the chat service too. but, i wouldn't have been if some people in the chat weren't asses. for those of you who missed it, don't be so pissed off, because you might be more pissed off if you were actually there -- while joe had great answers as usual, there were people who seemed to f*ck it up for everyone else, as usual. people would come in the room and flood and spam like crazy with "WHAT WOULD YOU PLAY IF YOU WERE ATTACKED BY A HUNGRY DINOSAUR" or some crap. and of course, "COME TO MICHIGAN" over and over and over as fast as he could paste and press enter. how annoying. so, joe tried to get out of the room, and go to another where the people were less annoying, and they just followed him. is it too much to ask to get one or two answers from joe, respectably, without people virtually mobbing joe? joe skipped from room to room for a half hour, eventually getting into a locked room where people couldn't follow him. the section before that (with questions that were entered beforehand) was much more enjoyable..... other than that, i was pretty angry and the people who messed it up, so don't be too mad, you didn't miss out on much. joe, next time i really think you should just get mr. luini to set up a chat on THIS site. i would enjoy that much more. thanks.

Ill agree... guitar guitar dot com seemed a lot unorganized. Although how else could they really have done it? I think it'd be more.... whats the word... fulfilling for joe to do an arranged event for satch.com users... I think we'd get a lot more out of it without (sorry for being snobby) the kids who want to know why joe does or doesnt like x brand guitars and what not (as well as asking these quesitons several hundred times)
I'd also venture to bet that T2J'ers would be respectful enough of each other to let each speak one at a time.

Unpublicized, random Joe chats at this site would definitely be the way to go. Most people here are really cool and we would be a great "audience" for a chat.
Online chats are really cool because you can ask someone a question and they'll answer you in real time. But the coolness level goes down when the chats become so popular that questions have to be preselected. At that point, the chat is nothing more than an interview done by a journalist. But once you take into account the fact that journalists are smarter than the average internet user (no offense intended to anyone), you end up with an "interview" that's slightly below average.
What happened today could have been accomplished with the Guitar-Guitar people emailing Joe a list of 20 questions, and Joe emailing back answers an hour later. It would have been a lot less stressful for everyone involved. In fact, I would love to see an "fan interview" like that done every once in a while. Eric Johnson does one or two of these a year through his mailing list. It's really cool.
But we can't forget, one of the purposes of this chat was to promote Ibanez guitars through the GuitarTrader.com website. And that looks like it was a success.

Hey everyone! First of all...congratulations to the winner...jstrat57... When do you get the guitar? :)
I didn't think much of last night's chat...not because of joe...I just don't think celebrity chats really work that well... And it was so nice of joe to go to each room at the end...but he was just bombarded with so many questions and comments that he couldn't answer! Anyhow...for anyone who's interested...there'll be a full transcription of the chat on the guitar-guitar website by tomorrow.

RE:Joe Chat]
Ok i just want to let everyone know that Guitar-Guitar.com webmaster sent me a slightly negative email. I was simply pointing out the flaws in the site and how to improve it.
They basically blamed me for their chat site section not functioning properly. Like everyone i wanted to get into the live chat. I signed up bearly and followed all directions correctly. Anyways heres what the webmaster wrote back.
remember
Our services are FREE
so the fact you wont use them again is YOUR loss.
The fact you couldn't get in is your fault. You either don't have your
computer set up correctly or something else.
The chat runs on the same type software as yahoo chat.
if you submitted a pre question before the deadline of feb. 6 your question
was sent to Mr. Satriani and his manager
Guitar-Guitar.com
webmaster@guitar-guitar.com
What does everyone think of this? If you wish you can send them your opinions too. But they are likely to blame you too.
:>P
Joe i would recommend you not use their services ever again.
Their website services reflect their cocky attitude. I'm extremely disapointed in them. My comp works fine and i have used Yahoo before. So its not my problem,its theirs.

TRITONast Theres a big difference between the JS 100,1000 and 2000. The 100 has a different bridge and Ibanez made pickups, the 1000 and 2000 has Dimarzio pickups and the 1000 has a much higher quality bridge than the js100's although some people thing that the js100's bridge is just fine. The js2000 is only availible in Champagne Gold and has a state of the art fx bridge which gives you the tuning stability of a locking trem, but with the feel and sustain of a fixed bridge that you might find on a les paul for expample. Both the js1000 and 2000 have a js prestige neck whch is an exact digial rendering of the neck on joe's favourite guitar. The Js100 is of course a lot cheaper than the 1000 and 2000, its hard to say which is 'better' if you have the money, go for a 1000, but the 100 is more than capable of doing the job :) I hope i've helped you a little, theres plenty more people on this site that no more about the 100,1000 and 2000 than me, i you have more question im sure someone will be able to tell you everything you need to know :)........Joe Rules.....

Oh i almost forgot!! The JS1000 has a 'high pass filter' which is acivated by pulling up on the tone pot which maintains clarity and highs at lower volumes...or something like that lol The JS100, 1000 and 2000 all have push pull coil taps on the volume knob too so you can split the pick up configuations to get a much wider range of tones. :) I'll wander off now and stop blabbering :D.......Joe Rules.....

Hi Joe:
I´m Jorge from Spain and I would like to know if you have thought about coming hear with the G3. I ask you to consider it and I want to say that the show with yourself, Mr. Vai and Mr. Petrucci is perfect so never change the formation of the "supergroup"
A meterle caņa!
