I'm a huge Peavey nut. I own a Wolfgang Std., a TransTube 212 EFX amp and a Stereo Chorus 400 amp!

In my opinion, you can't beat them for the money.

Well thanks,
But in my mind I can hear those nice Jazz lines, but my fingers don't wanna improvise too far from their comfort zones.
I think I should sound better than I do!

I still plug away at Jazz (after 40 years of guitarin'), but any kid that knows "rhythm changes" makes me look like a 1st semester improv lab flunky.

Love that sound, though. I'll keep at it, but I need another word to describe my style because Jazz implies a certain command of the basics, and my knowledge certainly is not comprehensive.

So lessee, I've got three "jazz" licks (times 12 keys, so that's 36 right?) that sound slightly jazzier than my stock SIX Blues licks that have served me for the last thirty years.
I'm a regular maestro!

That's still a lot more licks than a lot of "pro" rockers I've heard! Wink

It was a bit on the cynical side, wasn't it. Part of what I'm trying to leave behind, but the point was about (lack of) talent level of certain famous artists, not their personal habits, although there was a lot of that I also found wanting. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Of course I would not "get" a joke like that so wouldn't be offended!

Ha ha.
I know what you mean though.
There's plenty of really excellent guitarist/musicians around who get no recognition nor much money to speak of, while posers with guitars seem to get the whole world (but it comes at a price, I think Jesus observed).

But from my BC days I know you can lose your soul and NOT gain the whole world!
