GottahaveJoe: Be sure to loosen the string locks when you try to restring the axe I sent you. It'll make it much eazier to tighten the strings. Don't lock it back down untill you get it in tune. Keep in mine you can pull up quite far because the body is vacant behind the trem. Check out Reb Beach at the guitar sucks vids on google. It's one of his best songs!
When removing the strings...loosen the smallest strings first, and install from the biggest srtings first. Look close how they are put on. Putting them on that way will save you cutting off the ball ends...and your strings will last 1/3 longer!!! Enjoy Satchgirl !!! KTF Randell

GottahaveJoe: The delivery date was the 26th evening. Check at your Dad's work! If'in it's not there today let me know. I do have the tracking number. It's an "Irregular" shaped box. I do hope you can get to see Joe in the future. It is great fun. When mari got us tik's to the Las vegas show, we both had a awsome time-not counting the trip-that itself was an experience. Rock out Satchgirl! Randell

GottahaveJoe: Pretty cool huh? Did you have any trouble witht the strings,locks,equipment? Kinda deluxe for a second guitar. Now you can check out Rockhousemethod.com for some cool tips and tricks to use on your new axe! Rock on Satch girl !!! (you'll be taking over at the clubs sooner than we think!!!) P.S. did you like any of the songs on the cd? You can practice to them....eventually. Work out on "So'os you know" it'll give you a sence of JOE. Iceman2: Joe has universal appeal, and he plays to the heart of the music-Chi-soul. Rock out grasshopper!

GottahaveJoe: I hope you have had a chance to listen to the cd I've sent you. Any comments? How's the Axe doing? What guitar did your brother get? Do you two practice together now? Any luck figuring out Joe tunes? Get back to me girl....I don't have much to keep me interested as of late. I'm getting ready for surgery to my right eye (thursday). It'll be creepy, but ok. MariMariSRV: Thanks again for getting tikets to Steven and me to go see Joe! I'm still up from that. I know that was not your most favorite trip, but At least we got to meet. JOE: I hope you don't mind me sending an axe to Kayla. I know you could have but are in the midst of a awsome tour. I'm hearing great things from the youth I serve at target. Your right on the fore-front even for them. Once I'm done with this pesky surgery, I'll get back into playing. I have been practicing bass mostly as of late. I just re-did my 1-18 hf cabs with cross-overs. They work much better now...punchy! I'm asking for an Ibanez guitar for my birthday. one to replace the one I sent Kayla. I have my eye (no puns please) on a Ibanez GRG170DX ! I have not decided on candy-apple or Jewel blue. Peace, Randell

JOE!: I just got a Ibanez GRG170DX for my birthday! It's not till the 9th next month, but this'll be GREAT! Another guitar to play and customize! I recently re-invented my foot pedal system. I used rack rail to mount my Art processor just over my power conditioner. Underneath....a sliding rack shelf with my Zoom GFX-707 and Ibanez CP-10 compressor and my Roland EV-5 expresion pedal for my Boss BR-8. Behind all that I have my custom channel switches. They roll out on the sliding shelf. The whole thing is compact and portable!!! I have some wireless receivers stuck on top so'os I can go wireless, too. Now my bass preamp and guitar stuff are all in the same unit. That freed up my Sampson amp so'os I can make a 2-8 combo out of it. I ended up with a 2-18hf bass system, a GK 250 ML with a 4-12, and the Sampson 2-8 combo with a 4-10 !! I'm stylin' now. I'm back up to 7 guitars-including my bass-and a whole band of equipment to run it all. Steven Wilde is okay. He's still having a tough time socially, but he's a survivor. I don't get to see him as much any more-because of gas!!!!- and I have been Jamming with more people when I can. Back to practice! Oh, yea, the eye surgery went extreemly well. I don't get the patch off for a while, but my "Implant" is going to be a positive. I have to carry a card in my pocket now. The Poland show is making the rounds. What a show! I see why you spoke up about that one. Blessings....ktf Randell and ATN

GottahaveJoe: Get ahold of me Kayla-satchgirl. Ive ask you some questions here. Please send word how you and family are doing, the guitar etc. Hope your all okay. Ovation 1: Watch out for that Kim Ill!!! Aeren't tsunami's enough!! Thanks for all the Gilberto links big guy. Awsome!
Any Nuno clips that are new? I've been checking out the "Guitars suck" vids. That eight year old doing Racer X tunes is SICK. Make me want to start all over......sorta. I'm getting a Jewel Blue GRG170DX Ibanez for my Birthday!! 24 fretter......need I say more. Badhuh: Steven is okay but preoccupied. Life at the projects......His new tunes are more smart now. He's still having psycosis' but knows not to "listen" to it/them. He's been watching the dvd of stealth lately. He says God Bless to you and family. Me too. Randell

Ovation 1: Thanks sense' .....My eye looks positively RED! Some folks can't even look at me. I have eye drops to put in- three diferent ones- 4 times a day! The Ibanez should be awsome. I have plans for it already. Time to record! Mike, Did I -or Steven- send you a copy of "Passions of Paradice"? We have also reserected some other dual lead stuff we did back last year. I think I still have your addy....If'in' I don't can you send it to me via leox9@hotmal.com . Hope Kim Ill leaves you guys alone. Did you read my post on my foot-peadal gear? It's working great and all portable! Now I just need to make the combo amp and I'm set. I think I might need to get some casters for the 1-18hf's just to make things easier on my back. be safe out there...thanks for the rambo pic....LOL Randell P.S. GottahaveJoe:Kayla....you still there? jamming away no doubt.

Ovation 1: Mikey-son! No can do. This stuff is not posted on AbovetheNumbers.com. I sent a copy to Kayla. She's been busy with family. Maybe she will give a review? Gottahave Joe: Hey Kayla. I have a ibanez Gio now!! Jewel blue is my new fave color! The fret board needs to be finished on the edeges alittle better....but nothing I don't have tools and experiance fixing! Still an AWSOME B-Day present. JOE: WOW! I love my new Ibanez GRG170DX !!! Watch me put a floyd rose on it! Excellent for the price guitar. Great to see that ZZ is doing stuff with Dad! /you. With Rock star shows and all, rock is still as big as allways/with you. (sorry about the pun) Randell

OME: Nice work on the HardRockLive gig. !!! I've heard comments at my work. Keep it up/rock out. Ovation 1: I'll cut a disc for you this weekend and then I'll find your addy and get it sent. It'll have some old/some new. Badhuh:Thanks for the well wishes. Hope you and family are safe-it sounds like it from other posts-and keep your head down. MariSRV:Steven is just going thru a tough patch as of late. His old friend is getting on his nerves and he's frazzeled. I told him that it's just a head trip/ but Steven is soooooo introspective at times. He'll get better once this whole situation resolves. Keep calling when you can. Eventually he'll respond. GottahaveJoe: You okay? I hope your jammin' away and writing tunes. Sister okay? Give us a post to let us all know how you are.

GottahaveJoeI'm not sure what you mean by what broke on your guitar?? The input jack? Or the tuner I sent with your guitar? I should be easy to fix. If the cable that was plugged in it broke inside the jack, just get out any leftover pieces and use as normal with a new cable. If it's internal, you may have to replace the jack. Check carvin.com for the right kind and best price. I'm glad you've got a kitten. Carol is my girlfriends name! Both are cute, concidering who they are. I'm sorry to hear your troubles with family. Not everyone can handel sickness. Maybe your brother has issues with that. Keep playing and send pics when you can. Randell

JOE: My finger is fine now, and I haven't babied it ! The cut is just out reach of the strings and I can still Barre. I have had no problems practicing even on the bass. Bahduh: Check out what I told Joe.......continued saftey and blessings for you and family....you to Joe. Work has been tough and strange attitudes abound...I'm not sure where every one is coming from. It'll all work out. Ovation 1:I hope the cd gets to you soon. I sent it thursday. ANY review will be greatly appreciated. Recorded any thing with that Jem? I'll give it a listen if'in' you have. Tj2ers....we stick together. Iceman 2: Joe has his own mystical/electrochemical ballance that stimulates our otic nerves. (Yes that means he's a great player.) The hearing part of the brain is more direct. Any wonder we love his work? Keep on Brother T2Jer! Randell

GottahaveJoe:WHAT?????!!! You broke your pinky finger on your left hand!!!!!! Give that one some time before you start doing stretches girl!! Bahduh: Steven is having tough time with his house mate-former- and will find a way outa his depression some how. He's a survivor, it just takes him alittle longer to work it out that the rest of us. help is on the way, your prayers, mine, others are out there for him. Just be prepaired for Steven to wallow in this for a while till his old pal lays off him, or he figures out he's being played emotionally. I've told him that, but Steven takes things to heart. Ovation 1: Right on Bro! I know you will have great fun with "Passions of Paradice." It was our first offer for t2j2. You might even like "So'os you know." It's the one where I thought I was sounding too much like Joe! At least for me. LOL "Downtown Blues" is just like a Blondie song.

962: Unfortunately I don't get over to his place as much as I used to. My hospital visits are few now(that's good news) but gas prices are keeping me from going the full distance to Stevens. + work has been crazy lately. Don't worry, It'll all work out. GottahaveJoe: Ouch! You will be okay. You can still practice with your other fingers using alternative chords. Just pretend your using a slide!! Check back with me and T2J for excercises for your finger when your done healing. We goota keep you up and runnin". You will get to go see Joe. (postive thinking!!!!) Even if not then, sometime. Who knows, maybe Joe'll suprize you. Did You like any song on the cd? Comments? Be safe Satch-girl!!!

GottahaveJoe: Sorry to hear you can't make the Joe gig. You will get to one sometime. Have you any favorites on the cd I sent you? Did you think that "So'os You Know" sounds alittle like Joe? You and I have been thru the ringer. But, we survive and then excell. Some times we need to step back and count our blessings...instead of look down on what did not happen. Ovation 1:Hey Mike!! That cd get to you yet? Half way around the world. What us T2jers won't do. Give guitars away, get tickets to shows, Send pics of Joe and guitars. AboveTheNumbers.com

GottahaveJoe: Thanks satchgirl !!! "You Baby Mine" is a break-up song. Its just as long as "Stairway To heaven." That was one of the first songs I did my self. I play all the instruments. That song got developed when I was in my college band back in the 80's and recorded in my trailer in Washington State in the 90's. I'm glad you got to listen to it. Some of the songs will "Grow" on you. Peace. Randell
JOE: Happy belated B-day! I know your resting from the UK tour. Check out what I sent to Kayla. Randell

Clarky: Sorry to hear about your finger! You'll be okay I hope. Give it some time to heal. Smashes might take a bit to heal but they doo. Ovation 1: CD get there yet? I was wondering how many weeks/days it takes. GottahaveJoe: I bet Joe'll love his presents from you. Hug that cat for me. Give your brother some space on being the best guitar player thing....it may take him awhile to realise that there are more of us out here, and right next to him. The fantasy will only last sooo long. That doesn't mean we have to cut him down, even if'in' he is "Just" your brother. I hope you two can learn together. Learn from his mistakes, and be bold about making your own. There are many ways to be good, you both need to find your own "personal" voice. Be safe. randell

GottahaveJoe: I've run into the sexest and intolerable arrogance before. You just may be at a crossroads with this one. I had two older bro's whom I could not wait for them to move out. It was tough for a while....It will get better. I'm glad you liked the songs I sent you. When you get a recorder and start to have fun, you'll have just the revalation I've had about it. You just never know just what people will like untill you get it out there......! Ovation 1: That song I did on the cd called "Downtown Blues" is built off of the same chords for "Blondies...Rapture" LOL An I had not heard the song before 2000. Both have cool moments to them. Clarky: Hang in there Big rocker! You've got quite awhile before you decide if'in' you've have any movement problems. I agree, worry when it presents it'self, IF. Besides, there are more than just one way to do things on the guitar. Jason Beker did not give up....sould any of us? You have such an emotionally rich style...I doubt any one could ever tell if you had an injury or not. I play with a fused left hand ring finger. All my fingers are double jointed....except that one! I just make it work for me how it can. Steven Wilde: So many people have emailed me on your behalf.......Thanks all T2Jers! I don't know just what's up over there, but I'll find out. JOE: Thanks again for all the inspiration you've been all these years and on........I'll get ahold of Steven and give you a report...but I'm sure it's just the stress of the complex he lives at+introspectiveness of his mind that have him so down. I still have not gotten a word back from Steve's doc. Things will turn around soon. Enjoying some summer fun? Get out there and play in the water or go skatebording....as long as you take precautions.....No more broken fingers T2Jers! Randell

GOOD NEWS T2J fans: Bahduh: Steven is in a better place mentally now thanks to your phone call, Mari's, and new meds and a Talk with his doctor. (yea, the doc comes thru after all !!) I stopped by and gave him the pics of your son (What a qutie)and talk about music for a while. He's in better sorts now. I'm not sure about him moving just yet, but I'll keep on him. He does not have a budget to move on. He says he misses each and every one of you here at T2J. Ovation 1: No cd yet? maybe your busy listening. I know it can take a while, but more than a week???? DCK: Any word on T2J3? Do you still have a cut of ATN's "Passion of Paradice?" Put us in the mix....if'in' we make the cut. Steven may have some new song he might want/but he will defer to my pic if'in' we get picked. May be Mikey-san can give you a review of "passions." Thanks if you can Mike! GottahaveJoe: Looks like a t2jer posted a review of copper mtn. Hope you and Clarky are healing up nicely. I can just imagine you both practicing with a finger held out in a splint. My injury has healed up already. Now i just have to cut the speaker grill and mount it. I'm jammin' now! JOE: This is rest time for you, and I hope we here at t2j have not got you down somehow with all we're going thru. We'll make it...we have you and your music to get us thru it. Get some rest, hug the kids/wife. Randell

Growler: Thanks! Now Mark is on a journey. He has all our prayers. So does Steven. GottahaveJoe: Kayla: I hope you do get to go to see joe next year. Still jammin' on that Ibanez? Do you have an amp to use? A Head phone amp maybe? Tried to play any of my stuff yet? You can with the trem on your guitar. Ovation 1: Hey big guy! How are you? Any faves on the new cd? Some of the stuff on there is silly, but most is just an all out jam. I'm likeing "Melodic Trails" more and more the more I listen to it with the other songs. That's why I put it in the middle. It kinda grows on you. JOE: I like the news letter I got from You. Lots o'stuff in there for all your fans. Did you ever get a copy of the pic from Spitzers Music? Webmaster: Could you get a copy of that pic to Joe for me? I know you have it. I have not seen it come up on the photos page. Thanks if'in' you will for me. Randell

GottahaveJoe: PAINT!!!!!???????? I spent 100 hours to remove the flawed "pearl white" That had been burned by the sun by a ingnorant music store worker who left it in the sun in the frount window for several months! If you remove the back spring plate in the middle of the guitar on back, you will see the original color paint. I spent many hours to make it the shape and color-natural wood-to give it the old "Jet King" look from the 1970's. It makes this guitar of yours extra special rare. It is a 1980's pro line modle. It had really weird electronics in it that did not work. I put the Dimarzios in it for the sound. A super 58 in the neck, and a super distortion in the bridge. You could stain it much easier than paint. Paint will only deaden the sound. Red? Go ahead. The 7 peice neck- thru construction is kinda rare too for this modle of guitar.....I sent you no punk axe. You have permision to alter it how YOU want....because it's an experimental now. Good luck. Just make sure you will love the results. YOU are the one playing it. Personalize it to your tastes. Stickers? Stripes? LOL

AlexandreCaetano: Thanks for the well wishes for Steven. He sais "Hi" and he misses all t2jers. He's doing better due to his doc adjusting his meds, and meditation, and all of your prayers, and calls from Mark amd Mari. GottahaveJoe: Well as long as you get to keep it and play it.........What predestine color is he wanting? It won't make it play better, and your guitar will be taken apart for a while.....needlessly. The bridge is a Ibanez pro version...special color of....Platinum!! The tuners are too, but I added brass buttons and black accents to highlight the bridge. Such is the life of an experimental guitar.....I just hope you don't have to be with out for any length of time, that was the POINT of sending you the axe.!! God Bless, KTF Randell
