George Muto is my cousin and a hell of a writer and player. Hell of a guy too. He's in the NYC area. Was in a kick-ass band when he was young, stepped away from music for a time while raising his kid. Now he's back, and better than ever. His "Men from Muto" was recently released.

I'm thinking that it would be cool to get a G&L Rampage in his able hands. Thoughts? - ed

Warning: That video's audio screamed through my headphones like knives.

More good players need to use G&L so any model in his hands will do.

Hey Jon. No. Let's just say my music and his has very little in common. Fantastic guy, though, and I think a great natural talent.

What's new with you? - ed

No lessons for me. Would be a waste of George's time. I don't have the coordination nor the musical instincts. Besides, 250 miles separate us now.

Out of curiosity, I did go to Amazon this evening and I discovered this:

I listened to most of the samples, and I am honestly very, very impressed. Proud to know you, George! Remember me when you're famous. Ha! - ed
