you are pick-only, right? i only notice a difference in necks when fingerpicking. i do like the chug from a dreadnought on 'Old Man' ----- arts and crafts night for me. i should have gone up a size in boards. just laying things out, minus at a pedal at my office.

its the ATC 150s. i signed for them, but the one guy they sent said they were too heavy to get up the steps. we both tried picking them up but there is only the smallest of lips to get your fingers around. I sent him on his way and had my dad come over. The lifting straps didn't do shit, it was too big. oh my god am i tired. So tired... My dad said I've gone insane when he saw the woofer. He insists there is no way we are going to get them up on cinderblocks. God, are these things huge. I was sitting down while he was unscrewing the top of the crate and he almost touched a tweeter with his finger, not realizing it was the face of the speaker he was working around. I just about died. Homeowners policy: apparently they don't see this type of thing very often. I had to make it clear that I'm not running a recording studio for money or anything. "Nope, this is just listening to CDs in my living room." So they know I'm crazy now Its going to be an adventure prying the boxes apart without touching the speakers. No screws on the sides of the crate. there's no way i'm going to get them unpacked today, i've got to plan this out.

i'd like to get a Hamer Improv hollowbody if they still make it. probably really expensive though. i just ordered some 72 packs of dunlop tortex picks (green, blue, purple) and a pedaltrain jr pedalboard

last one this week, i swear

just bought these. delay is the small logo, MN3005 chip version. harder to find now, as I understand it. I am going to have to get multiple amps, there's too much fun to be had. I like the idea of a JC120 for jazzy fingerstyle stuff. Some boutique tube stuff for touch dynamics and teeth.

this arrived today i cant get over the birdseye. the back of the neck is even better but i forgot to snap a pic of it. don't have an amp yet.

i have a $100 yamaha nylon i bought a few months ago, which is the only other guitar i have. i remember reading an interview w/ Brent Mason where he said a cheap nylon can sound very close to an expensive nylon. That its a smaller quality gap than steel string. there is still a difference, but I think the basic theory is pretty much dead on. I used to have a taylor anniversary limited (XXX i think?) and a Martin Thomas Humphreys classical. I regret selling that one, its probably really hard to find nowadays. they had this cool neck extension that let the entire top vibrate independently. Both of those guitars had amazing intonation, i think thats the biggest gain with expensive guitars. after I got RA in my hands a few years ago I walked away from guitar completely. I've been on meds for a while and my hands are better now, so ideally I should get back to it, but i've forgotten most of what I used to know. its difficult to know if I'll ever really get back into it permanently, so Ive been reluctant to buy any new guitars. Its a shame, because its only now that I can actually afford the real stuff, not the beater guitars that I currently have.
