Hey all,
When does Joe get home from this European promo tour webby Jon?
OK T2Jers, once we get the answer to that, let's run a contest to guess the day and time that Joe posts some blue here to give us an update? I sorta figure he will want to tell us how awseome the promo tour was and how great the first shows are going to be, so it won't be long after he gets home.
Ozzy Fudd - so you are a fabulous baker boy then? Did you make heaps of hot cross buns? We get the Brumby's chocolate ones, they're awesome!

DO THE STU: Fly drive, was superb. . .
Flew in to LA, then to Palm Springs, Phoenix, Grand Canyon, Page, Bryce Canyon, Las Vegas, Visallia, Yosimite, San Fransisco, Monterey(managed to walk round Laguna Seca) and back to LA.
Was really cool and will definitely be doin it again.
JS1200JS1000: Main guitar is a black RG with mirror plate, through a JCM 800 head and a 900 top cab, tried out a JS1000 last weekend, stopped playin it just before I got asked to stop (I think!) JSBDG on the cards though!

PIP: Thanks for that, I'll check it out thouroughly, but I think there may only be a crazily low number in the UK, may not have alot of choice, but hey I'm 90% sure, the last 10% hangs on seeing it etc, so we'll wait and see (but c an't wait!)
Do you know of any other issues with them?

Pip: I have a black JS100(secondhand), Ibanez RG27sp and a 7 string ROC AXE. The 7 string cost $100 from the pawnbrokers. It's the cheapest piece of crap you would ever want to play but the pick ups really scream.
Skippy: I'm at work now. Thank the gods it's all over. No more easter buns for another year. I used to like easter buns......

Good morning/ evening all!!..Got a bit of rain nite before last, still a little wet. It's supposed to rain tomorrow.
Cube- I understand the stand alone Whammy does not have any lag, is that true?
Thoiba 2- Hi and welcome. Joe is really busy now with obligations to his solo career plus the upcoming Chickenfoot album release and tour. Joe comes in once in a while when he gets time and posts any news and occasionally answers some questions. Just understand that he is very busy. When you log on and see an entire post in blue text with his name beside it, you will know. You asked about which guitar I am using:
I have several very old acoustics with no name, that I play occasionally just because they have a great sound and feel, Here is a list of what I have in addition to these:
1983 Martin D28 acoustic
1992 Fender American Standard Stratocaster
1982 Gibson Les Paul Studio( which I gave to my daughter)
???? Ibanez SZR series( beautiful and a great player, fixed bridge)
???? Ibanez RG 1570 ( This is the guitar that I am trying to acclimate to.) Te action is very low, the neck is fast which I am having to get used to. I still like the comfort of the fatter necks on my other guitars. This guitar is forcing me to be less aggressive on fretting each note and bending as well as my pick hand.
Joe's lesson on modes is a great down to earth theory/ demo lesson. Try this handy tool that helps me. Mode Master This should help. I would begin my memorizing the notes all over the fretboard if you have not already.
Update on the electric/ acoustic...We made a trip to Memphis last Saturday. (Guitar Center) A very helpful older gentleman with a great deal of knowledge on elec/ acous, pointed me in the direction of a Yamaha which is very similar in fact almost identical to the Ibanez, It uses a 9 v. battery vs 2 -AAs in the Ibanez and I also liked the position of the control panel on the Yamaha. It is a great playing guitar and sounds great as well. Priced at $350.00 was a pleasant surprise.

Whaazzup Aussies?!!! What have you guys done with Roo? Now get some sleep will ya :-) Good night.
PIP an Scuba- F1 racing this weekend?
You know the pirate situation in off the coast of Somalia just blows my mind. My son-in-law did a stint in the U. S. Navy and called home one day and told us they were in pursuit of some pirates in the Mediterranean. I immediately got a mental picture of a Motley bunch in funny hats with peg legs and hooks on one arm. I say change the laws where any boat can carry a 50 cal. gun and sink the B@&#ards when they approach.
Watching video Adam Ant "Strip"....just because that's what is onVH1 Classic...Just watched Eddie Money and thought about Alan.

jdublu: (like the Ingenious name...) So how's life up in Perthshire? Only been there in passing myself mostly up to the far North. Actually be up there again next week probably. I like Secret Prayer a lot as well...good tune. 10 Words is a lovely song as well, you obviously have good taste :)
DoTheStu:Great pics...thanks for posting :)
js1200js1000: WOW! What a find...that guy's either great or crazy...
JSPhil: That damned British weather eh? Missed a perfect day today as we were out walking instead...typical. Yeh, Lance is like Lewis-as in I just hope he stays out of trouble....I especially hope they both stay away from Spain ;)
Just got my Steve Vai 'Original Album Classics' set of 5 (and I repeat, 5) cds...that's me sorted for the week!

scuba: Damm right they are, nice to have vinyl-alike sleeves as well I suppose. Really good value when you consider I could have bought Passion & Warfare and Alien Love Secrets for more than the 5 cost...:)

i,ve a Q...best saddles for strat is? it seems t be a fuckin mystery, hardcore Fender peeps think this convo is stupid, while others are screaming graphite covered saddles = more sustain better tone & less string breaks
*slan scratches head*
I had no idea the Fender guitar police were so....dont touch me....i,m a perfect specimen i have no need t evolve...until NOW
