Re: NEW LINEUP

Looks like your gonna need a bigger wall soon.  You have some fine looking guitars Russell.

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".

Re: NEW LINEUP

Russell, Nice toys. I like the term "Wall of Joy" it really fits.

Re: NEW LINEUP

Great looking selection Russell glad you have the ability too play good as you do. How come no archtops,like a Gibson 335?

my papy said son your going too drive me too drinking if you dont stop driving that   Hot  Rod  Lincoln!! Cmdr cody and his lost planet airman

Re: NEW LINEUP

That's a great looking arsenal, Russell.

Great to have everything hung up to admire, and to keep them safe. My wife calls my collection "The Wall of Noise". Some people just have no appreciation for dive bombing at high volumes (LOL).

I also have a Dobro Houndog in a case I go direct from my effects unit to the Tascam DP24 for guitar, bass and my new Aleisis drum machine all the vocals run through a processor and into the Tascam I use headsets to monitor and mix

Nice lineup Russell

Rule No. 1 - If it sounds good - it is good!

Re: NEW LINEUP

Is that the Douglas on the left? It's huge compared to the LP. I like the LP better.

Keep Rockin!!!!!!!!!!!

you are correct Z funny thing is the LP weighs about 2lbs more then the Douglass the noticeable difference is the frets and speed on the LP they are really low and fast so much so I am ordering a fret file to lower the frets on the Douglass and the Fender builds of course I have to lower the nut and bridge equally there is a kit at Stewmac to protect the fretboard from getting scratched I am ordering it and I will "attend" via video link a tutorial on doing it right. smile

Re: NEW LINEUP

If I could find "A black hole deep in space", I'd stop by just to play that Douglas for a few minutes (its been on my GAS list since you first got it)

Re: NEW LINEUP

Russell whats next  on your gas list, or is it too soon too ask? I am guessing a Fender Telicaster or a Rickenbacker.

dino I was looking at a modified tele on Rondo guitars it was only 115.00 not a fender but the same pickups and wiring, body and neck I tried to get it and it was out of stock I can wait. My next priority is recording some new songs with my newly purchased Alesis SR-16 for authentic drum sounds including various fills for that real feel its the closest sound to a real drummer I have come across. I have been playing around with Toto's Africa Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy man and for good measure Joe Walsh's Rocky Mountain Way and Life's been good might even do Neal Young's After The Gold Rush what the heck all of them lol
