Peace Lily: Thanks for the invite, we will be there in spirit, and please have a shot or 2 of the Jag for us :-) Have a great one, and I second Tracies congrat's on your graduate.... Compai!

....Now.... if Joe can ever work out another G3 with his crazy schedule (and hopefully Stevo can swing it), IMO Tosin Abasi & Animals As Leaders would rule as the 3rd G!! Check out the intro of this tune..It has Joe "Not Of This Earth" sweetness all over it!! \m/ And @ 3:35 it really starts rocking hard, oh yeah!! \m/

Thank God for Joe and all the influence he has planted over the years for Instrumental guitarists to strive for and create, and for striking that nerve in me way back to what can be done with the greatest instrument on the Planet!! :-)

Btw, michelle.... I second that on MIke Orlando..I like the fact he will be working with Mike, and he sounds so much more refreshing and "up my Joe alley" than John P, lol, but not a diss there! ;-) Thanks for the heads up....

"up my Joe alley"

lmao!!!

Now that's funny!

I've heard it put a lot of ways over the years, but that's a first for that one! lol!

LMAO michelle, I didn't think of it that way, but now that I went back and re-read it..haha, it sounds so rude, lmao!!

Well, after yet more consideration, i've decided that i'll get either the JS1000 or the JS100, based upon these factors.

I have next to no income at the moment (just turned 16, hoping to get a part time job soon). I want a js guitar that stays in tune when you whammy. I want a JS :p lol

So if anyone has a 100, please please tell me how good the tremolo system is. I know it's an edge III, but other than that i know nothing about it. (also, how far up can you go on it before it snaps a string?) Also for those of you lucky enough to own a 1000, please tell me about the pros and cons (if there are any cons). I can go for either, but i'd like one within a year.

Thanks very much

....Wow, if Animals As Leaders aren't on G3, I don't know who is!.....

Mikey, he reminds me of Joe too!

i guess they saved the best for last.....got ready to write a "What the hell" letter after i passed 10 . Hope your well Joe...i moved off of LI because you dont play there anymore..;-)

The # 20 was bothering me...till I realized Joe is not strictly "shred " although he definitely can......

Randell: lol bro, I remember you talking about G-Whiz before, and it really is great idea. Thanks for passing the good word from Steven, and please tell him to keep up the rock when he gets the chance! And I'm happy to hear your back in the swing of things at work..It was a long hard road for you, but you never gave up..Congrats!

/\/\ /\ R |<: You hit the nail on the head about Mike Orlando..I've been checking out his vids and he has some great phrasing to go along with it..fantastic player!

WhammyFreak: I ordered AAL as well, and Tosin really makes me feel like there is a new fresh Joe in Instrumental guitar! \m/

AAL music reminds me so much of when I first heard JOE for the first time.... This tune SORAYA has some mind altering melodies and phrasing.... I haven't been this excited about Instrumental guitar since JOE first lit the fire!

Which means he's right up your Joe alley. ;-)

lol!

Wicked bad thunder storm here last night. The last BOOM of the night sat me straight up! I ran over to my daughters room to see if she was hanging by her fingernails off the ceiling. lol! She sleeps right at a window, but the windows in my sons room aren't to close to his bed. Between the lightening flash and the earth rumbling explosive sounding hit, there was no way I was falling back to sleep after that! It was sooo loud! The biggest hit was like the finale. After that, the storm was over. I have no idea what it hit, but it was close! Maybe it hit a transformer? I feel bad for anyone that was caught in it. It was baaaad!

Hello Jeff!

michelle: haha, and you know Joe alley is under construction, LMAO!
