Okay, let me clear up the F-spaced debate....according to my luthier friend, F-spacing means Fender Spacing, because gibson uses a narrower bridge spacing. You should get humbuckers for strat style guitars (RG's, Jems, S series, JS etc etc) Fspaced in both bridge and neck positions. If you get a non fspaced in the neck tht isn't a big deal, but you definitely want an Fspaced bucker in the bridge, or you might get a week sounding "E" strings.

...Just contacted (e-mailed) the artistic director of "Pori Jazz -festival".
...it was quite a detailed info about mr. Steve Morse (biography, discography, recent touring history, links etc.) ...and it was a humble request to book either Dixie Dregs or Steve Morse Band ...or BOTH (like they toured together in August 2000 and January 2001)! .....well, now I've tried...once...

Delfino Pie: I've got only £257 at the moment ...and there ain't that much goodness in my heart... so, I'll have to say: no...
...like in Zinc Master's bumber sticker: "I said no to drugs, but they wouldn't listen to me."
Edit: ...hope you're not in a real distress...Good night, everybody!

Delfino- if I had a spare £275 kicking about I wouldn't hesitate to donate it to your guitar cause, but until I win the lottery- I'm a bit brassic! Sorry though. :-)
Punkdude- thanks, I hadn't realised there was such an album! The Lenny Kravitz cover particularly interests me, I'm quite a fan of his (another Flying V enthusiast!)
Steven- hope you are well! Your website is great. :-)
962- have you tried out Flying V guitars before at all?

Zoom GFX-5. Multi-fx pedal. £120, last one in the shop...good deal?
i've tried it out and it sounds good, but, it doesn't give you much scope to change the sound as far as i could see. i'm going to give it another try to find the delay and other effects on it on thursday.
what do you people think?
and also any ideas on how to make the sound less distorted when playing into the computer? it becomes more gainy and horrible when going thru the computer compared to when just going out of the amp.
guitar - effects unit - amp - computer...is how its set up. and no microphone...so its a line in. using a stereo plug thingys.

Thats ok guys...I wouldn't give it me either lol.
Today the odds have been against me, I get home turn on my amp and get guitarring...5 minutes into warming up and there's a power surge...when my power eventually came back on about 4 hrs later my amp was completely screwed up...and my effects processor...
Then to cap the whole damn thing off I find a Ibanez RG-7 string on Ebay with hardcase, strap, etc...for £275 with no previous bids and 2 days to go :-(...
It just hasn't been my day...

Joe,
I live in Houma Louisiana and recently missed your show in New Orleans due to work. Are there going to be any more stops in my area, I really want to catch one soon.

Has Joe ever done a song called "Heavy Metal Christmas"? My friend just told me about it, usually I don't allow people to send me music files over msn, but I really wanted to hear this and see if it was our good friend Joe.
Obviously I'm listening for Joe's tell tale tone, and I have to say it sounds a lot like Joe's writing style...
Just wondering if anyone has ever heard it, or heard of it before?

Zenfish,
You said, "I'm looking for some symbiosis. For, contest shall be the slave of symbiosis. The symbiosis is also a very big principle of life"
And, I agree with you Gestalt is very symbiotic...everything is everything...all related to each other...each atom intermingling...if a Butterfly flaps his wings in South America....
Peace, Love & Happiness

punkdude, ahh cool man! I'd like to hear that cover! Sorry, I'd never heard anything about it before, but now I know why....Thanks!
jelly man, how've you been playing Half Life 2? It's not finished yet is it?! Wossit like?
OCPS470, ha, crazy man......I wonder how much information that gets spread round the world is mistaken?! I'm inclined to go with your Luthier friend on the Fender-spacing thing, cause Fender and Gibson started it all.
So, again, sorry Austin!
I dunno....maybe I just got a sh*t memory. I'm probably going senile.....I'm not even 21 yet. Jeezzz....
Delfino, to my knowledge, no Joe's not done aforementioned song. However, I have a memory like a seive, evidently, so ask Austin! hehe
Suzie, I've never tried one in anger, no. I have to say, they sound awesome.....I mean, massive tone, they seem to cut through anything when you want them to. I just don't like the shape of 'em! I personally find it ugly and uncomfortable, but each to their own.
I saw Wishbone Ash live a few years ago and one of them was using a V. It sounded ace!

Clarky-no-Malarky,
If someone forced you down, and tied you up with leather straps & poured hot wax all over your body...how would you describe the style of music on your new CD Release-Shredz?
stick with me here...it'll all make sense some day.....

Do The Stu : it has to be sex. he starts really soft then get louder and faster, until the solo, where he mixes in dead notes, so it sounds like its going back and forth, and then he cums with the sliding back and forth.

Hi there,
Im writing from New Zealand and am a huge fan, just wondering if you can help me with a question, Im working on speed and accuracy using the chromatic exercise - 1 2 3 4,1 2 3 4etc. and am getting frustrated because it seems like a slow process, can ya tell me if it does actually takes quite a while till it all gels. Currently im doing sixteenth notes in between 88bpm. any tips would be priceless to me.
Thanks
Kerry

GODGUNSGUITARS,
Your idea sounds like a good one.
Looks like t2j Saturated Feedback struck the right chord with everyone...sooooooo...let's be happy with that!
Neither, Joe or Mick have gotten back to me...not that I really expected them to, but think of the clammer it might make if enough Young Guitar Slingin' Guns got wind of the mighty opportunity they'd have to play next to Joe. CD sales...Guitar & Amp Sales might soar, but them again, they'd probably have to go International with the offer, then it would'nt be as fun & cozy for us REAL fans!
I'm finished with that concept...nobody felt comfortable with it, so I won't beat a dead horse.
I'll just join G3, or maybe Tony MacAlpine if he needs someone with some Fur on his....lol ROTFLMAO

962 - well, it was released today, so I hope it's finished...
Half-Life 2 is great... been playing close to non-stop all day... always exciting, always varied, superb game.
