Welcome Gerard, great to have you with us!
Should have introduced myself a while back. Im Gerard from Ireland, I've just got back into the guitar and now cant put it down! I played years ago and got bored so gave it up (won't happen again). I appreciate all styles for musical ability from heavy metal to classical. Right now Im learning a lot of funk and some reggae, I love Andy Summers' work with the The Police.
Gear:
Fender Tele US Deluxe http://elderly.com/fmic/items/FADTS-ACB-MPL.htm
Fender Stratocaster Highway One
VOX Valvetronix AD50
Cheap wah pedal
BOSS DD-6
Welcome Gerard, great to have you with us!
The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

Welcome Ger!
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009
Thanks everyone!
Welcome aboard Ger!
I think you'll find TheFret to be a warm and friendly place to hang out...

I'm not Irish, despite being told I must be by a very old woman who, appropriately enough, ran a B&B called Blarney House, within spitting distance of Blarney Castle.
