Don't know about the weather where ya'll are, but it's really rainy and chilly here.
I guess I should be thankful that at least it's not snow! Hope everyone's keeping warm and cozy in all of this nastiness!
.................nothing nasty about snow, could be a breautifull thing, with the freezing rain we had the other day it looks like we'll have a fast track for drag racing sleds and drinking beer this weekend.
G&L's come in all sorts of beautiful colors, one of the best selections out there, BUT....are there any that you'd like to see them add??
................Yes but these are not easy or cheap paint jobs to do, that's why you don't see many like these, I wish G&L would do some limeted runs of these two tone and candy colors. They haven't come out with anything new except the Phillys blonde and the anniversary color, nice but borrrrrring! all three of these guitars change color a lot depending on the light, the blue on the Interceptor is whats called a flip flop color as it changes from a light blue to a darker purpelish color and I'm told that the candy lemon is a bitch to paint, look at all the coats, and that special white color coat, that has to be applied as you can see in the neck pocket of the F-100, I've posted lots of pics in different lighting so you get the idea of these type of paints.

So, I know I have a couple of ya'll as MySpace/Facebook friends.......but how many of ya'll are active in the "social networking" community??
For those in bands, do you have pages on MySpace or Facebook, or perhaps Reverbnation? If so, please list them so we can add ya'll.
.............................No social networking except this place
One thing I've noticed from observing younger players is the love of speed.
Seems like most young players think that playing super fast is where it's at. Not only that, but cranking the distortion up to a level where it
blurs the notes seems to be the order of the day.
When I was younger I worshiped at the altar of guys like Eddie Van Halen and such. Now, I still like them, but I really don't see what made me LOVE them back in the day.
Do you think it's just maturity? Youthful energy? Maybe they haven't been exposed to what a truly soulful player can do with a guitar or bass.
What do ya'll think??
I like speed with a tonefull response.

................I love red guitars and need a good nylon string, I'd like to get my hands on her
