Hi, FF. Cool of you to stop by -- things have been dead around here, as you have probably noticed. It's weird to hear updates from people. I now own zero electric guitars or guitar amphs and play mostly bass and drums, and I can't really see myself playing much other than bass going forward, but you never know where things will go.

Original music is a completely different beast from covers. I think they (covers and originals) are both extremely useful in teaching you stuff, but it's weird how they are so different in terms of mindset. It would be fun to hear some of your band's music if you get a decent recording; even just a well-placed mic or recorder in the middle of the room can give you pretty good results.

BTW, that's a very pretty guitar. And very red...
