Steeve T............... ummmm did you not say that you would post some pics of your chromie and your leather pants or something like that!!! LOL

HELLO CHEESE you got MAIL AGAIN LOL..........

HERES A JOKE FOR YOU ALL:

Dear Husband;

I'm writing you this let ter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good.

I've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have nothing to

show for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you

had quit your job today and that was the last straw. Last week, you came

home and didn't notice that I had gotten my hair and nails done, cooked

your favorite meal and even wore a brand new negligee. You came homeYou came home

and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching the game.

You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't touch me or anything.

Either you're cheating or you don't love me anymore, whatever the case is,

I'm gone. . S. If you're tr ying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are moving

away to West Virginia together! Have a great life! Your EX-Wife.

Dear Ex-Wife

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter.

It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good

woman is a far cry from what you've been. I watch sports so much to try to

drown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work.

I did notice when you cut off all of your hair last week, the first thing that

came to mind was "You look just like a man!" My mother raised me to not say

anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped

eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you had on that

new negligee because the price tag was still on it. I prayed that it was a

coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that

morning and your negligee was $49.99. After all of this, I still loved you

and felt that we could work it out. So when I discovered that I had hit

the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica.

But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess.

I hope you have the filling life you always wanted. My lawyer said with your

letter that you wrote, y ou won't get a dime from me. So take care.

P. S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was born Carla.

I hope that's not a problem.

Signed: Rich As Hell and Free!

After every flight, Quantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight.

Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humour. Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Quantas' pilots and the solutions recorded by maintenance engineers.

By the way, Quantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident.

P = The problem logged by the pilot. S = The solution and action taken by mechanics.

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement. S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough. S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

P: Something loose in cockpit. S: Something tightened in cockpit.

Thank you for asking!

962... you should check out the 1000bp is awsome, it plays so smooth. i think its one of the best guitars ever. try the bp or the 1200ca. or maybe a js2 prm.... hmmm...thats what i want next i just need some money. but you should get one or two.

Mash er up buddy Mash er up!!!

it's like what I say before every gig...

Let Her R.I.P.

so here goes...

Dear Joe: My name is Pablo Alpuín (but my friends call me "paly"), I'm 24 years old. I live in Florida in Uruguay (South America). I am a big fan of you. My english is not very good. I play the guitar. When I play the guitar I try to imitate you. I love Rock Music. My favorites guitarist are Jimmi Hendrix, Steve Ray Vaughan, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, John Scofield and the list is kind of big :-) . I like Jazz Fusion Music and musician such as Allan Holdsworth, Scott Henderson, Fattoruso Trio (uruguayan band).

I would like in a near future you come to my country (city: Montevideo) because here you have a lot of supporters, more than what you can imagine!

Stevee T: I was playing the S470 Ibanez in those pics, but it's a great guitar too! I've relagated it to my outdoor gig guitar. Even thoug the custom is built like a tank, I don't want to chance getting it too hot/cold/wet. Thanks for checking them out though. When are we going to see some chrome boy pics?

ocps - bro.. I did try to kill myself with drink, drugs and whores... but my wife keeps stopping me...

she's a constant source of interference with the things I should be dying of

how can I be rock'n'roll and still alive at 40.....

Keniko, thanks for the happy 1300 amigo! Yeah, it will be a while until I can afford a JS1000 too......especially since I really want a Washburn N4 as well!

To answer your question - in terms of the technical side, I recorded it digitally on my PC, which I built specificallt for recording, using Cubase SX2 and arranging drum samples into a beat and making fills and stuff....then added bass and guitars.

In terms of the actualy artistic side - "how'd u come up with things like that? " - this tune started off with the rhyhtm guitar part. It uses an open drone note on the low E string, with a high 3-position power-chord sequence on the A and D strings. Having recorded that and looped it I tried to come up with a melody, and the first one I came up with had too many notes in it, so I simplified it and then hit on something I liked.

This is usually my process - either coming up with a bassline or rhythm guitar part and then a melody....haha, I'ts not that often that I think of the melody first! It's careful arrangement that makes something sound interesting though, and arrangement is something I find really hard. I can go into more detail on arranging techniques and ideas if you like, but I didn't want to swamp you in this response! haha.

Thanks again, for your kind comments!

962: i see, well all i've are like tools from the stone age, anyway what would be good recording software? i'm looking to at least get something better than the laptop's recorder...

i also come up with either a bassline or something for the rhythm. but i just can't seem to be really content with my stuff, you know coz im working with a half busted guitar and all.
