Hey nerds.
Whatsup up here is that I have borrowed a Republic resonator and been playing a bit of slide. Been tinkering with various flavours of slide and unexpectedly found myself getting on really well with this mahoosive ceramic thing called a Pork Knuckle. Who knew. Somehow the heft of it seems easier to control that the smaller glass and brass things I have. Progress from the video lessons and general increasing familiarity with the tunings and technique is super-gratifying.
Also dun a rehearsal with psych rock blues band and loved it. I took my SG and the Epi Riviera and my tweaked (reduced) pedalboard though the Vibrolux and had a whale of a time with feedback and whatnot. Oh man. So nice to be playing again!
Also been playing a bit of bluegrassy flatpicking style shiz on my acoustic at home which i'm really enjoying. What's next is that I'm going to sell some gear and try to save up towards my dream acoustic... but i keep getting distracted by the idea of 59 reissue tweed Bassman as a gigging amp. Must keep focussed.
