Burly - It's hard to beat a JS model I think. I have not played all that long...coming up on 4 years now. Since I started I always played Les Paul. But last year the wife let me spring for a JS1000. It's hard to say anything negative about that guitar. The neck is very fast and easy to play. And it's a very light guitar. I can play the JS 3 times longer than my les paul. the trem system still scares me when I change strings. I really no guitar tech, so it takes me forever to change out strings and make sure my set up is right. Strangely enough though, I think my les paul sounds better with my satcherator. Maybe my hearing is off a bit/!!! lol. I am in my 40's now....too many concerts will do that to you.

Mornin' T2Jers and top of the morning to ya Joe. The blue is reassuring and quite welcome to me eyes. Glad to hear you will be continuing your solo career. Did I say I like your drummer Jeff Campitelli? His Campitelli-ness is awesome! And then there is Stu Hamm......delicious well seasoned bass at its best!
Guitarvibes--"wankers"? Oh, broeder!! Such intolerable cruelty!......I guess I left myself exposed didn't I?! George Clooney's humor is on the march and nothing can stop it! Also that icepick Guitarvibes humor...Ouch! I hurts so good! What a country of paradoxes is the Netherlands! ;-D
Blue Alan Moon--Yer welcome to Cali anytime.....hendrix the catalyst.......and Frank Zappa's school of music and entertainment........wow! Such a rich heritage! Eire is a puzzling place.......good to see people and their animal friends walking side by side in the most ancient of relationships........healthier than horses under the hood/bonnet of an automobile......although not as practical in the city........I guess that is why we have cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs and other small pets......cute critters who can be placed in an exercise ball to roam around at will! The movie Bolt was a funny romp!
Michelle--Thanks for vid of Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart in L.A. Memorable meeting!
cosmic_ape--You called yerself a "wanker"? Is nothing sacred anymore! Ooooops! I may be exposing myself yet again.
Me Steve is still an early morning guy.......he has tried many times to encourage me to match his schedule......tough thing for a later in the day person that I am........body clocks don't quite work in the same "zone".......that's ok.......we are still here for each other......and once I'm awakened in the night or early morning, I'm available for hugs and kisses and other wife things....
scubadaz--Thanks for the vid of Joe and Steve Morse together. They are great together on stage.....Ahhhh, Deep Purple! .;-)

Ice: Hi and thanks for the post and the comment - the first!
I agree discipline is the key, along with the old ones - pacience and practice of course! I used to be able to play about 70% of FiaBD for ages, but made a concious decision to sort out the rest, now just need to sort out an outro (still not the full song then huh? Damn.)
I spent a couple of hours listing out which songs were 'do-able' how much I knew of them or if I had to relearn them, how well I could do each etc, then figured out what to tackle first.
Sounds great - but I'm struggling to stick to it right now - work / training / Motogp races etc!

That's the main prob, finding ones that are learnable by ear all the way through...I've got a learn to play Joe Lick Library DVD that is really good, but that's only about 4 or 5 songs. I'm a bit lazy as well I think, I get bored learning things if they aren't working out for me...great attitude eh? :) When you say MotoGp do you mean watching or competing?

Milli, I think you are not familiar with the way guitar players use the term... When you refer to a guitar player as a wanker, you are talking about him being a show off and a poser. It usually refers to people who play very fast yet their stuff lacks musicality. It's musical masturbation...
Now I told scuba I was a wanker because the first time I got a guitar with a whammy bar I abused it until I broke a string! What a tool! Well, I was 17... So, we were talking about breaking guitar strings and I was implying "only wankers break strings"... See what I mean?

Geez I get a bit sick of homework sometimes (well most of the time to be honest...) I mean when am I going to use Biology? I want to be a doctor, but Biology?! That's the famous British sarcasm there....:-/

Just a pity it was the BBC's comentary and not Eurosport (Toby/Julian/Randy Mamola). These guys are the best, its like watchin a different race!
For those non-motogp converts out there - check it out, the bikes are faster accelerating than F1 cars, no seatbelts or a car to hide in, track dependant hit 215mph(+!) and its like this at every race weekend!

When I first started jamming with buddys on guitar in high school, I learned as rhythm guitarists moving from drums. An older guy was the lead player and lead singer. He was really good on the AC/DC early Bon Scott era stuff and we primarily stuck to that along with a few original tunes that we could just really jam to. I learned minor pentatonic from him and when he left for the military I moved up and was really making gains as a lead guitarist. I "happened" upon Dorian and MInor scale by accident. ) didn't know that was what it was called. The key was , I was jamming and experimenting. When This Guy came along it was the easy thing for me to go back to rhythm guitar. Scott was just awesome and there was no need for me to even try. Hey man we had a band and sounded good, and that is what mattered. Or I thought so anyway. I did the lazy thing and did not try to progress. The key is keep on jamming and trying new things.
What sounds good and what does not. You never know unless you venture. If you crap out, you learn very quickly not to go there again. Keep yourself in a situation where you are free to explore and never put yourself into a box. I am glad to have played with Scotty but I should have kept digging.
Link fixed :-)

I actually moved back to drums within a few months. I did have fun though. Now I am playing catch up.
The Jam Man really helps a great deal with this discipline you guys are talking about.
