Mark (bahduh) hi there!! Chris and I are fine, we just had a great weekend of travel, music and a lil JOE!! :) He's doing well in school (YAY!!) and says to tell you hello!!
Zinc Master.....oh man, I'm sooooooo bad at remembering songs...I get so swept away by the music at the time that I forget to remember what was played, but.....I believe the final jam song, which was the second song Joe played on, was Listen to the Music...I think that's right because I remember singing at the TOP of my lungs to it, along with everyone else there!! The Doobies also played (I think) Rockin Down the Highway, Takin It to the Streets, and either Black Water or Jesus is Just Alright With Me...and so Joe would have played one of those as well....geez, not only was I singing and dancing, I was trying to take a bazillion pictures around all the flailing arms and heads!!
ACK!! Help Joe!!! My brain!! Which 2 songs did you jump on stage for?? :)
And to all who said thanks, yer very welcome..... :))

very interesting and tempting.
It would depend on what happens this and early next week to see if I can get away and see either one of those shows.
Maybe we should post early next week and touch base.

SHredGUy: To get the sounds of Petrucci and Morse, etc etc, I would say the FX will do little for you. THe best way to get there is to tweak the knobs on the JSX. Also, Petrucci uses the neck pickup for at least half of his soloing, and almost everyfast run/ sweep he does uses the neck pickup. If you have a Dimarzio Air Norton in the neck on your guitar, that will get you more in the ball park (JP's old neck pu in the Ibanez guitars). Anyway, that setting I gave you gives me an all around nice smooth sound that I can use as a jumping off point to approximate alot of styles just by changing my pickup settings and varying my style and technique. Hope that helps. As far as cool FX go though, The Boss DD6 is an excellent delay. I have that, a Boss Chorus Ensamble, a Digitech whammy, Morley Bad Horsie and Little Aligator, Dunlop Rotovibe, Fulltone Ultimate Octave and a DS1 (I don't really need this, I just stick it on the ol' pedal board to augment the Fulltone sometimes). This kind of a setup gets me almost any FX tone I need. I woud say that instead of geting a big rack unit(which cost a bunch and has a bunch of things you don't need) get each individual effect you want as a pedal. Try to get pedals with true bypasses, and if you can't get those, try the pedals out and get ones that minimally color the tone. Get very short high quality cables to go between the pedals (I use Dimarzio 6inch pedal connectors). Using all of thsoe pedals, my tone is virtually non- affected my having all of those pedals connected. Just remember to put Delay, Modulation FX (FLange, Phaser, CHorus) and the whammy pedal (or other harmonizers) in the FX loop. This lets the amp run cleaner on the front end. Put distortions, Fuzzes, pedals like the rotovibe (exception to the modulation pedal rule), wah wah, and volume pedal in front of the amp.

For those of you who use the 'Spell Chequer' on your pute (comp if you're a Yank)
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
Steve.

Hi Joe,
i understand that u have used Conford amps in the past especially in some of your early recordings.
two questions :
1) What did you think of them(professionally and technically),
2) Why did you not continue to use and develop similar to your collabration with peavey/JSX
I thank you in advance for your kind and quick reply to my post.
Regards,
Couros

LucySorets, thanks for your kind words and encouragement! Yeah, you're right actually, each musician has something to offer, something I'm trying to build on with some of my students at the moment, but I should believe a little in my own stuff too! haha. I haven't come up with much lately, but I'm currently very busy transcribing a Piano duet arrangement of Handel's Cortége ~ The Queen Of Sheba. The transcription is for three guitars and a bass, and when I've done all that and recorded it note for note I'll try rearranging it too! It's cool, I'm learnign some interesting stuff from it and it seems my music theory is better than I thought it was, so it's not all bad!
"El Corte Inglés"....The English Court? That sucks, your own stuff is so much more interesting! hehe. That's funny that you heard Lotus Feet being played, you'd never hear anything like that here in a store. It's always just top-40 chart/MTV type stuff, if somebody played some Vai they'd be fired for being uncool! How ironic that "The English Court" should be doing something so non-English!
js1200js1000, haha, I'm not honestly sure of what Luthite is. It's some sort of plastic that sets with a very, very fine, smooth grain and a flawless finish. If you try to sand a block of nylon it will peel and roll up and turn horrible, the only way to get a smooth finish is by moulding it, but if you sand a piece of injection moulded stuff like, for example, plastic scale-model kits are made of, it comes up really nice.
I would guess that it's that kind of plastic that is used for a Luthite guitar like the Ergodyne or the JS10th, 'cause it means the body can be cut in one piece from a block with a laser-cutter or a CNC Router. A CNC Router is a router controlled very finely by a computer! I would think the luthite guitars are cut rather than moulded, just because it's cheaper, otherwise Ibanez have to set up a whole new production line for moulding plastic, and that costs $$$
Like I said, I'm not sure, but that's my best-educated guess! You're welcome, by the way, I'm always happy to try and help! :-)
Brother Al, cool man, it's looking good. It's a shame to see you're using that plasti-kote spray stuff.....I should have thought to advise that you try Tamiya paints. Tamiya stuff is fantastic, I use it on model cars that I make in my chill-time and it gives such a good finish. But hey, you're only spraying a small area so it should come up ok.
