What's on the workbench?

[jjjimi84]

Some of those guys have like $10K worth of pedals (yep, two of them) then you hear them play an its like.... jeeez.

I'm no John Bonomaster, but come on.

I used to work with a guy like that, would buy a 4k guitar to hang on the wall. I am no bonermaster either but i at least have the thing in my hands everyday.

I don't play nearly enough anymore... I can definitely tell every time I pick up the guitar.

 

[Robert]

Don't be sad, I'm having plenty of fun playing with pedals.

I’m (somewhat living) proof you can play for hours a day and never improve.

You just need one cowboy chord to vamp and improv silly lyrics..

What’s this chord you speak of? That’s not that thing you have to do with your left hand while manipulating multiple strings is it?

I tried that once…$600 ER bill.

But there’s hope!

I ordered an “air guitar” from a guy on Reverb. Anyone heard of these? He was having trouble putting pics up, and it IS used, but he guarantees that anyone can play these! Granted, $5000 is high, but to be able to easily rip through solos, it’s damn -well worth it to me! Ordered! I’ll send a pic when it arrives…..shipping was amazingly cheap.

BB don't do chords and I don't either. Who needs chords when you have pedals?

Phrasing. But I do the same.

Are we doing phrasing? God I love that show.

King or beach boys?

 

[Robert]

Yep.

 

[music6000]

It could be. I don't know... We'll see.

It's another stupid priced limited edition... (Not THAT stupid, but still more than I'd pay for a keeper)

Klirrton Oh My Goat Distortion​

Nah. This isn't really a contest so I'll post a pic as soon as it's here.

 

[Bricksnbeatles]

Yep.

I always knew that BB King was short for Beach Boys King!

Hits such as:

• Lucille, No: “Where diiiiid the thrill gooooooo; where is the girl I used to knooooow”
• Wouldn’t it be nice (to sing the blues)
• Help me (find the thrill), Rhonda
• Woke up with tears in the morning
• Three o’clock bluebirds over the mountain

A true icon of the chimeric baroque-pop-blues

 

[Robert]

Random fact, did you know Willard Scott was the first Ronald McDonald?

 

[szukalski]

I thought BB was the Blues Brothers.. come on Elwood..

 

[Robert]

I was talking about Bob Barker.

 

[Scruffie]

Ahh, well then it might not make as much sense, but I was going to say I can do one better than pics...

You're welcome to the pedal when I'm done with it. It might take me a little while to actually get it wrapped up though.

You're very sweet to offer but I can't be buying any more pedals at the moment and I certainly couldn't accept it as a gift, although perhaps we could come to some... other arrangement

 

[Robert]

I wasn't trying to sell it.

Reverb would just take all of the money anyway, I'd end up paying like $8 to give it away.

It'll probably be vintage by the time I get around to tracing it, but I'll shoot you a message.
