Hey, what happened to Stu Hamm? I see he doesn't play with you anymore. Stu's awesome, I love his bass solo on the live in san fransico DVD, I learned it right after I heard it. Any reason why he doesnt play with Joe anymore?

Man, another wicked storm last night. Rain & some honkin' wind gusts. Another sleepless night. Looks like the other half of the tree that fell on that womans car was blown over last night. The street crew has been out there in the rain for hours now trying to get it cut up and taken away.
Hey Jersey people, hope everyone stays safe. You folks are getting hit with it now. It ain't no joke, so be careful - and watch out for those damn trees! lol!

thanks for your feedback peeps... I guess it all boils down to a guitar being built well enough so that the trem stays in tune, the intonation's pretty decent and that there are no chokes or dead spots on the neck.... how everyone's not playing a Squier Strat then? lol
greg I can't remember, but thanks! Most of my built guitars were built from parts. One exception is Greeny (who's not green any more lol) whose body was a slab of mahogany. There's a big pice of paduak downstairs that'll hopefully become the next axe... tools-wise it's just normal stuff, like a bandsaw, router, pillar drill, sander, planer, etc, but hand tools are just as good - they just take longer!. Power tools are pretty cheap at places like Screwfix and MachineMart. All my bridges are right-handed black chrome Floyd licenced bridges from Brandoni. Pickups I really love Kent Armstrongs (even the cheaper Sky range), and I'm about to get rid of my DiMarzio Fred cos I don't like it ;-) Oh, and all necks are bolt-ons!
Laters! Dave

Ive added some more bits to Blowout such as 2 more guitars and slightly changed the drums. It also up to about 1min30 (ish). PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK - My IUMA. First listen to Blowout then listen to Blowout version2 as version2 is the newer one.
Regards,
Aarren

Dear Joe -
I bought tickets for your show in Milwaukee for my boyfriends 20th birthday, 5th row, center!! He will just freak when he finds out. He is the most talented guitar player I have ever heard and he could impress anyone. With his showmanship on stage and his kind, dorky personality offstage he will make it far! It just would complete the birthday package if I could get backstage passes; he means so much to me that I would do anything to make his dreams come true ! Seeing the three of you on stage is more than a birthday gift in itself !! But who wouldn't want to meet 3 of the top guitar playlers in the world? Congrats on your sucess can't wait to see you in action on 10/22 - Thanks, aShreddersGirlfriend

heathbass, the official reason is that Stu just had a lot of stuff going on (he essentially missed his daughters first year, so he really wanted to be back home), and wanted to do his own thing, and Joe kinda felt like a change would help create a new sound anyways.
I'm still hoping for a reunion in the future, though, so let's keep our fingers crossed!

zachary SRV had 13s on? What the flip, I don't even think those would fit on my guitar!
fusion Yes, I do think that guitar is flashy, and I personally wouldn't buy a V or any other guitar which wasn't designed with comfort in mind, but $379 for a Jackson doesn't look bad at all. Actually, I'm quite envious.
alexandre It seems that everyone is going to see Dream Theater!

GregM Not me- I missed out, by the time I knew about it the tix for London Hammersmith Apollo had sold out!!! :-(
Still haven't got my website sorted out- too much else to do, and still "in the zone" tunes- wise, I'm working on 3 new songs at the moment- a nice "Eastern" (phrygian) sounding track (using DADGAD on my old Epi LP for the rhythm gtr- instatnt Led Zep!!) with lots of fx and keyboard parts, a mixolydian odd-time thing that starts off in 7/8 (in fact I might write the whole thing in 7/8) and a Richie Blackmore-style thing (which is just a riff I write to jam along to, it might never become anything!). Any news on T2J CD?
Off to training now. Ta-ta for now!
SOTD: Wildest Dreams (track 1 off the new Maiden album) I have it on my MP3 player, going to have another listen to it now!!
Rock on!!
Kev

haha as i doubt joe has time to read these anymore... i will make this a broad question really... ok, so i hear you (from now on "you" means "joe") altered your gutiars to do the Buzz Fieten (i know i spelled it wrong! lol) thing. I know that pathagoreas did a math thing to figure out tunings exactly, but he didnt take into account string tension and thickness. I guess what i want to know, is how you changed your guitar to tune the buzz way? I have modified my guitar extensively (my cheaper one that is my "experimental" guitar). for instance... i have scalloped my neck to the ninth fret. I put my wah pedal guts under my pickgaurd and drilled a hole for the knobby thing (cracking the gutiar in the process!!!! killed me!!!) I have painted my baby, i have cherished it. I want it in perfect tune now! lol. I know that STU and VAI and EVH have used the buzz system as well. is it worth doing? I mean, i dont want to be spending hours and hours and days and weeks to do something that is not worht my time! :) and, what the HELL is the difference between the different js models? 1000 and 2000 look EXACTLY the same, except for the bridge, yet the 1000 is a LOT cheaper? i have heard from matt king that the 1000 is the best. that so? haha... well later all! cant wait to see you jam man!!!

Ouch, that must hurt! Anyway, remember to mention your RG as well!
Oh bummer, there was a really nice 2 foot x 2 foot poster going for £8 on ebay of Joe, the one where he is looking at you straight on holding his gutiar in the inlay for crystal planet (not the one on the front cover) and 10 minutes before the end of the auction, my dad made a phone call, and he just nattered on and on, he was talking to this financial adviser guy but afterwards he just chatted and wouldn't put the phone down, and the auction expired! Bugger! This is so annoying!

hey there folks! was tryin to find a good rhythm guitarist on campus so that me ethn and a drummer bud can play "Time" and a few others later on for a live thing...
long story short, the dude couldn't hack it. This got me thinking, what keeps me from doing it myself? I have six strings and ten fingers damnit!
So, now there is an arrangement for the rhythm guitar AND bass for Time, all in one easy to swallow tab ;)
hey cool! post 500

mick87: I posted a similiar message a couple hours ago, but it didn't get posted up for some reason. Anyhow, there are several good songs not included on the "Best of" cd that are on Ear X, that are EXCELLENT. Of course I can't remember all the titles, but "Carp Diem" "Turn Away" and "Pray for Peace" are the ones that come to mind. I think "Carpe Diem" is on the best of cd you have.
I became a fan of Timmons from his previous work in "Danger Danger" I can understand your hesitation in checking out the Danger cd's. "Screw It" and "Cockroach" are killer cd's with loads of great playing from Andy. If you can get past the "Hairband" antics. I'm a big 80's rock/metal fan, so I love the stuff.
