I\'m not one to come on a psychedelic breakfast board and act like I\'m some kind of good guitar player or anything. But yes Breakfast shows do double as guitar+groove lessons for me.

Since I love my gear so much I can\'t resist showin it off

Its a MexiStrat body with a Lite Ash birdseye neck, smooth as silk. Billy Corgan\'s red/silver/blue Lace Sensor setup. 9-way in/out of phase rewire. Callahan bridge+block+tremolo, and a few lesser upgrades.

The other one is an Aria Pro II Les Paul copy.

Only thing missing on the Strat is a Tim Palmieri sharpie on the headstock. But I\'ll get it one of these days

If you wanna hear me play you can peep my Music Myspace.

Is what it is

peace!

Nice set-up bdfree! thanks for sharing...
I started off playing the flute and using vocals, my strongest instruments. I like to mess around with beats--the djembe and conga drums, and on occasion I\'ll try playing piano. I just enjoy making sounds/chords and progressions of harmony/dissonance.

Nice pile of kit there. I too have a Peavey amp - the Classic 30, with 7 gorgeous valves in, enabling me to blow away much bigger solid-state amps in terms of tone and volume. Just a pity I can\'t play my Epiphone semi the way Jorma Kaukonen does...

Classic 30s rule. My tubes are probably due for replacement but the Celestion\'s perfectly broken in. I use an RC-20XL through the effects loop as a volume attenuator so I can crank the tubes at practice volume

Actually I got a 2nd Classic 30 that needs a probably not too difficult repair ... if you know how to solder and know your amp schematics (or wanna bring it to a shop) I would sell it way cheap.

Well.... I like to pretend that I\'m halfway decent at many instruments. First instrument was 4th grade saxomophone but I only got to 3 blind mice so that may not count.

My main instruments are a tossup between guitar and gameboy (technically an 8-bit synthesizer/drum machine but way cooler to say gameboy). I also can throw together a bass line without causing myself bodily harm.

I have a Korg EMX which is a synthesizer / drum machine (non 8-bit). I also can play keys, but nothing more than for filling out a sound, not going to go Medeski on anyone. I love my casio sk-1, cheesy 80\'s sounds galore, and I can sample my own burps! I also think I can play drums if I can get my hands on a snare, kick, and hi-hat so I can learn.

Playing in a 2 man song writing only band (because we can\'t figure out how to pull it off live). Kind of sounds like grunge rock with gameboy I guess. I don\'t know if this is too much information but the question was asked so I figured I\'d be thorough. Wish I could be Thoreau instead...
