Here's my new Welch WG-65 LP copy. Honeyburst plain top (I'd been GASing for a plain top). Made in China, presumably. Mahogany body and neck, 5/8" maple cap, rosewood fretboard, bone nut. Weighs in at a robust 11 pounds (oh my showwwldah!). I had to intonate it (treble strings wouldn't stay in...

The DVD is excellent. It was good to hear/see them perform For Your Life for the first public performance. The chemistry was definitely there.

Thanks for posting that, Robert. Great clip. I saw DT in 1990, performing with members of the Allman Bros, and Stephen Stills, at a benefit for former Florida governor Lawton Chiles. I'd never heard of him before that and my jaw dropped when he started playing.

Holy smokes -- that kid is amazing!

I agree about the emotional intensity on Bell Bottom Blues and the rest of Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs. It's been a long time since I listened to the album in its entirety. I think I am now due!

I'm digging the slide too! Well done, Helliott.

+1 on the Biyang pedal. I find it to be a great pedal with a nice build quality. I wasn't thrilled with the Holy Grail.

Cool, an official release. This will of course be much better than the (quite good) bootleg releases out there on the interwebs, but it seems that the film excludes I Can't Quit You. Looking forward to it!

Thanks, Katastrophie. Makes sense.

I have an opportunity to buy a Randall RT-30 two-channel 2x12 tube amp (apparently similar design to a Matchless or Vox AC-30) which is not working. I asked if the amp powered on and if he knew what was wrong with the amp. He told me the following: and it was damaged at an outdoor gig when an...

A lot of us have seen videos of this kid before. He is amazing. And what a great tune to cover!

Thanks, PS. Looks like a great deal.

Interesting topic. I would think that repetition is key. On what I think is a related note, I was recently jamming with this blues band (whose members have much more experience than I do) and I thought that my soloing was lame. I think that my playing is more varied when I am playing at home, or...

I've never heard of that. Did he ask you to deflate the tires on his car as well? :socool

I really like the way that you approached that, Sada,. So many psychological factors/biases otherwise play into instrument preference. Glad that you found a Tele that you like!

Very cool, Steve. Thanks for sharing the photos and your experience. I am a big Wilco fan. I last saw them in Hartford last year and they were great. Solid 3 hour show.

Good music...thanks for posting, PS.

Wow, beautiful photos, Stingx. Thanks for posting them. #2 is stunning.

Thanks, guys. The tremolo block only has two springs on it. I ordered a few springs so I can get the bridge flush with the body and get the guitar in tune.

I had been wanting a black/maple Strat for awhile (thinking either Gilmour's black strat or Blackie), and saw a Craigslist posting for a black/maple Squier Standard on Craigslist. He was asking $65 with a gig bag and Randall practice amp, which I didn't need. In email, the seller said that the...
