Haven’t posted much due to a very busy schedule of work and Variax-playing. ? Our gig with Leah last night went reasonably well considering we were playing in an incredibly inappropriate venue. Some yutz had the nerve to come up to me when I was running sound for Otis Finch …

Everything else
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I can’t say enough good things about this new Variax guitar. The Line 6 guys have outdone themselves once again! The models are all extremely accurate except for the 12-strings, which by their nature are almost impossible to reproduce well on a 6-string. But the Les …
