I've found I'm much more comfortable with an acoustic guitar and can make it perform so much better than my electric. Would like to find a local violinist who can do some lead for "Love Hurts," the Nazareth version, or "Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald" by Lightfoot. Maybe a flute as well. If you're local to El Cajon, Santee or Lakeside area and have transpo, we can meet and see what happens. I ride the bus now but my Xperimental Taylor 612Cfx doesn't like it. I can strum her hard and she jumps out stage center or tickle her softly and she purrs like a pitch perfect angel.

EQUIPMENT
Taylor 612Cfx (Custom bucket list baby, 50 years of guitar playing, she's the finest ever)
Roland GR-33 Synthesizer (Strat w/digital pickup was stolen, Synth can not be used)
BOSS BR-532 Digital Studio box. (available, not used)
"Fishman" humbucker soundhole pickup piped thru a KORG "Toneworks" AX1000G for reverb, chorus and fill effects.
Theft of my Fender Strat prompted my return to acoustic playing and I feed quarters into my Xperimental Taylor 612Cfx and, I swear, she plays herself.

Done with the Roland GR-33 and Korg AX1000G. Drum machine is from the BR-532. Done on my Fender Strat with the Roland digital pickup. (since stolen-WITH the pickup) I still have the Roland but no way to play through it - So I concentrated on the Taylor Acoustic.

Slow Mood
Slow Mood Track number: 4 Year: 2003 Genre: Folk
Roland GR-33 Synth, Korg AX1000G and BOSS BR-532. J.J. Cale's "Magnolia" was running thru my mind so I made a tribute to him and his song. Fender Strat and all other instruments are synth'd on the Roland.
CALENDAR
Past Events
Scott and I are seeking a strong vocalist/Bassist and a strong vocalist/Lead Player. Beatles, Stones and CCR preferred. Versatility a must. If you can identify that little yellow piece of plastic in pic #1 below and can fog a mirror, you're in.
