It’s Finally Happening!

I’m so excited! I’ve been itching for this since the fall of 2010!

Tonight we were shopping online for…

Wait for it…

PATIO FURNITURE!!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Center

Obligatory “I just drove through Methuen center” pic.

Dirt Pedals

First, the Joyo OCD clone:

Second, the Band of Gypsies Fuzz Face Mini (along with lots of MXR Phaser):

Finally, a combination of clean and Big Muff Pi:

Not Quite Good, Not Quiet Disgustingly Awful

Yesterday’s band practice… the mix on the recording isn’t all that horrible. Guitar is a little loud, but that’s the way it should be, damn it!

Violence in Baseball

Someone went to a baseball game and a hockey game broke you.

Cap

We saw the new Captain America flick and I very much approve.

Another Tremolo Video

This video for setting up a stock Strat tremolo has even more good stuff.

Tremolo Maintenance for my Stratocaster

A little teeny tiny part of me is thinking about playing my Strat at tomorrow’s band practice. It would be nice if I could use the tremolo though. We have a song that includes a dive bomb, and it would be cool to actually do it up right. Unfortunately, my tremolo blows the guitar so far out of tune it’s useless.

So off to youtube I go! I think I might try the tips in this video. Probably not the graphite or oil stuff, but the floating bridge stuff sounds like a good idea. If it keeps me relatively in tune, that would be all kinds of aces.
