Stormy Monday on a Saturday Night

This is a blues tune that I did at a party a while back. I'm featuring what I call my (version 1.0) "Coltronics Guitar System". (If Robert Fripp can call two reel to reel tape players "Frippertronics" I can call my, shall we say, heavily modified Ibanez strat/ Roland rig "Coltronics".) I'm playing to a backing track I made and I must admit that I did clean up a couple of "clams" I hit while playing. Other than that it's all me and my not quite normal electric guitar. Check it out.

Damn fine stuff! So you must be using a hex pickup for analogue, right? Into your "coltronics"?? Does the one bridge pickup let you get the rounder, neck pickup tones? Great playing. Cool pickguard

That hex pickup (Roland GK-2A) is driving my Roland VG-88 guitar/amp modeler. There are two buttons on it that are set to change patches. I can change tones from, say, from a clean (modeled) Strat in the neck position pickup to a (modeled) overdriven Les Paul in the bridge position (or even an open tuned acoustic) depending on how I set up the patches. The hex pickup, in this case, has no particular tone in and of itself. Thanks for checking out the video!

Is there any way to get a burned CD with your "I Don't Want to Go" song? I want Josh to hear it.

How 'bout I email you a mp3?

"Get down with your bad self John!" Always love the ending of that one. :) Is that my mom screaming at the end? ~Lisa

[WeakEndProductions]
