It's a tough decision to pick one, because I love all my guitars, but the 4 I'd keep for good are..
Gibson 35th Ann. LP Custom Black Beauty
2007 Gibson ES-335
2001 Gibson LP Prem Plus. Honeyflame
2000 PRS McCarty in Vin Cherry Sunburst.
I like my Fenders too, but those 4 are my favorite guitars I've ever owned.
The Black Beauty is minty, so I rarely play it. It's worth about $3000 - $4000, give or take.



Joe, I'd like to hear about some of your stories about any session dates you worked.



Will this thread go on forever?

Funny enough, most of the ones in the past couple years have been for cartoon pilots, where I just come in with my pedalboard, and make funny sounds over hip hop type beats.
I remember recording in a studio at the the same time as Rollins Band, and got to hang out in the courtyard with Henry Rollins. I just sat there and listened to him rant about something about his music. He was talking about production techniques for conveying anger on tape, but my headspace was completely different, playing bluesy slide guitar, so we really had nothing in common to talk about. I just listened to him, since it seems like he likes to hear himself talk.

Consider me Willy F'in Wonka. This is MY Chocolate Factory...you hear me...MY Chocolate Factory!!!!
When you have over 15,000 posts you can own a chocolate factory that goes till Sunday.....oh wait....you do! LOL
do you like cheese? Very much. That's what I buy anytime I drive up to Solvang, Ca.
do you like chess? There's not enough hours in the day to be into everything, so sadly, nerdy board games had to be sacrificed! LOL
do you cheese like chess? I can play a mad game of cut the cheese!

Who was the better Catwoman on Batman, Julie Newmar, Lee Merriwether or Eartha Kitt?

Imitation is the sincerest form of identity theft!



Err, I almost forgot the question I have asked all the others at The Well:
Can you name one single band or artist that you think is obligatory listening for us kids?

As fast as smoke rises.

I always liked the definitive Catwoman, Julie Newmar

Led Zeppelin. I consider them the roots of hard rock. Don't be one of the young armchair critics who thinks Jimmy Page is overrated. Everyone seems to judge him by a few sloppy licks in the Heartbreaker solo, rather than delving into the genius of his rhythm playing, acoustic playing, writing and arranging. Anyone who doesn't understand Zeppelin is simply not musically up to the level it takes to realize why they're the most influencial band in heavy rock. They're even before my time, so when I was a kid, I didn't yet 'GET' why Hendrix and Zeppelin were so worshipped. It's not until I was a better musician that I started appreciating them.
Yep. Page was the ultimate ripper-offer.
Great band though!
In terms of Led Zeps place in the history of rock n roll, it's a chain of links.
Maybe first in that particular part of the Chain would be the Yardbirds with Jeff Beck...then Cream...then Hendrix...then the Jeff Beck Group...then Led Zep, who I hear as being a combo of those first four groups. (Although I'm not sure if the first Jeff Beck Group preceded Led Zep or not...I think so.)
Aerosmith owes so much to Led Zep! But I'd think they'd be the first to admit it too.

So did all the early rock'n'rollers. That's all music is....crossbreeding your influences. Adding blues to any sort of modern music is a recipe for better music.....at least to me.
My opinion about Zeppelin and their critics is this. Sit down and learn 5 great Zep songs from front to back, including a few in DADGAD tuning, and when you're all done, come back and give your new opinion of Page. He's like a walking wealth of musical information.



Well, I'm getting to about the end of this fun week and a half. It's tough keeping up with all the questions, but it's like my own little forum here.
So.....who do you guys think should be the next one?
Odie?
Lew?
Jolly?
JerryJ?
JB from Hell?
Skarekrough?
Wattage?
