Stumbled upon the website yesterday doing a google search on the Boss RC-2 loop station and read a very informative thread between tone2thebone and tot_Ou_tard among others. Fiddling around a bit more (on the forum!) I found the home recording stuff etc....

Originally from Boston, now in Atlanta. I've been playing guitar for 20 yrs although I don't show it. I attribute that to a combination of 10 lessons (20 years ago), no theory, and tab, tab, tab! Maybe I'm not that bad, but forget trying to improvise anything. I'm lucky if I can play a blues lick in the right key. Never really jammed w/anyone or got some of those tips or tricks from my elders.

But at least I can still impress the wife, kids, and a few friends.

I'm into classic rock and blues with a giant nod to Jimmy Page. New music starts and pretty much ends with the White Stripes/Jack White. I like the acoustic stuff too cuz I won't wake anyone up (the kids again) so I'm not really able to let loose as much as I like.

I play a Gibson LP Studio Plus through a Crate Vintage Club tube amp (just bought it, and it's my 1st tube amp) and my acoustic is a Epiphone something or other.

Anyway, looking to learn from you guys when I have the time/attention span and if nothing else kill time at work.

Peace and Happy New Year.

Welcome, pressthe6. I've picked up on a lot of good stuff from this forum.

I'm sure that Warren will be by soon with your complimentary order of pancakes (Sorry, it's a bit of an inside joke here. Search the forum for "pancakes.")

Hi PT6. :)
Nice having another Vintage Club owner aboard. We'll have to keep quiet about how outstandingly awesome those amphs really are or we'll trigger another wave of GAS. So whatever you do don't mention how you can get sounds from Fender to Marshall out of your amph, or how good the reverb is. They'll go crazy around here.
