Hi Joe,
Just recently I bought the San Fran DVD and have to comment that it is great to finally watch your techniques on screen rather than listen to cd's and try to decipher the strange squiggles in books. It gave me renewed inspiration and also as a result it encouraged me to bring my satch CD collection bang up to date.
It also started me thinking about a new chop machine for myself to compliment my renewed enthusiasm so I started looking around. Having seen the 'controlled' abuse they take and without ovelooking the obvious tone aspects I surfed straight to the ibanez website and immediately decided on a JS series. After very little deliberation I ordered one and am now the extremely happy owner of a sexy black JS100.
And here was me a devout Fender bender for many years. Sorry Fender, my new ibby makes your guitars feel like rough sawn logs.
Thanks Joe, it's everything you and ibanez designed it for, sounds amazing, plays like a dream and fits like a glove - albeit a strange kinda glove!!!
