Joe : Two days ago, i went to a guitar shop to try again your last JS serie. Not for me, i've to say. So, i looked at other guitars, & found a US telecaster, sold with a 45 per cent promo, because its body is red, & so, nobody wanted to buy her. I've to admit that you gave me fluke. Crossroad is weird. Very weird.

Hey Joe,
This is Raam from India. I am learning guitar currently. I have picked it up only recently. I am 20 now. I picked it up after watching tommy emmanuel. I am so passionate about music. After getting to see tommy emmanuel, i searched for various artists and that's when i came across you in youtube. I am just awed at your technical brilliancy over a wide variety of genres, and your musical abilities to convey the moods and you always strike a chord with a listener.
My inspirations range from Chet Atkins, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Robinson, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Michael Hedges, Andy Mckee, Don Ross, Eric Clapton, BB King, Preston Reed and few others. Out of those of my age group, joe robinson and Sungha jung are such inspirations. Sungha though, is playing a lot of covers and he has a long way to go, being a prodigy, becoming a real musician.
But you, you are such an inspiration. Your playing and music moves me Joe. I am just stuck in an engineering college, devoting time to guitar whenever possible. But, one day, I will share the stage with you. We will perform together. It's my dream to share the stage with you, Tommy and Andy Mckee and it will become a reality.
If you reply, I ll be really happy. If you can guide me, and if you mentor me,I will be so grateful for life, towards you.
But, even if you don't, just know that I am so much in awe for you and that one day we will share the stage.
Regards,
Raam.
Keep rocking.

hi people, did you listen to malmsteen's last album? it is really too bad, i think yngwie believes he still lives in 80s. i can't believe he insists on the same sound. he never puts surprising things to make the listener enjoy it. there are a lot of bands choosing the same formula. for example cannibal corpse, arch enemy, slayer, children of bodom. they are not taking risks, they are not trying something else and we listen copy-paste, machne product albums over and over again. ok, i love them all, but where is the excitement?

I`m building a guitar body from a blank plank.Do you know if the pick-ups are positioned under the harmonics or is there some other factor in setting the proper placement.I do understand about the scale length according to the neck I`m gonna use,but I don`t want to copy specs from another guitar,I want to know why they are set in a certain position,Thanks,William.

I think it is safe to say that I am a fanatical "Joe Fangirl", as we all know.
News today is that I might finally get to meet Joe at the guitar clinic in 10 days. Well sort of. Briefly. After 28 years of enjoying his music, albeit with a hiatus caused by early child-rearing distractions.
There is a 45 minute photo session after the clinic! No talking, not allowed to chit chat, just get the pic and 1 item signed and move on but at least that's something yayyyy. Now I am praying that I get to the photo stop before the 45 minutes expires as they make it clear 45 minutes is it and then Joe goes.
Please, gods of guitar, please let me make it to the photo point inside 45 minutes......
If the pic and signing takes 15 seconds for each person then hopefully they can get 180 people through. There must be a few hundred at the clinic. Please gods of rock, hear my prayer.
Ten days.....and what should I choose for the one item to be signed????

Would love too but don't think I'll be getting one of those fellas! Really nice machines though... Other 24 fret ibanez' just don't do it for me with their thin necks. The 2400 looks and probably feels great too
Recording an ep using the JS1200 there this week, sounds cool
