Been silent here for a while, working on a bunch of new songs. I was working with a band. But as bands go, two of the guys are moving, one to LA and one to Florida. So I am looking again. But did get a lot of practice time in and writing both. My playing [...]
This week the telecaster is out to play. Something about this that I like
Buzz is wide awake on drums for an early morning jam. I am working the Fender Telecaster. The first section is a bluesy rock groove with a Bill Lawrence single coil which gives that throaty sound. The second part is more of my signature sound with a double coil pickup. Audio sketch #2 means unrehearsed, [...]
Just a snippit from a first jam. Ethon has a great drum setup with double bass, hi hats on either side so he can play with either hand. Good times. I brought the telecaster to the party.

Ahh back to the black Les Paul. Sweet stock humbucker in front with cover removed, Dimarzio in back.
You’re in the big time too.
I’m using my black strat with Seymour Duncan active pickups. Dare I say it. This song has a slight country twang to it. I never really cared for traditional country music. But I did like a few artists, Hank Williams Sr., Johnny Cash, Chet Atkins, Roy Clark and even Glen Campbell.
I do like the [...]
