–Right on! And that “honesty” is really closely linked to ego.

Thanks for your thoughts, Cory!

Doing this site for selfish reasons (you love excellent guitar gear and want others to share in your joy, yes?) shows you are sincere. Concentrating on positive results means your life is filled with positivity. Being genuine AND positive are two cornerstones of great character, and thus a great life. People often say they’re “just being honest” while using cruel and hurtful words as a verbal attack tactic. Honesty should not be used as a weapon to harm, and many critics forget that. You can be truthful AND kind.

If you have to say, “Hey, I’m just keepin’ it real.”, well you probably AREN’T, because if you WERE those of us observing your world would already notice that quality through your ACTIONS. As a somewhat agnostic yet open minded Quaker, I appreciate a person of faith like you who doesn’t have a bumper sticker mentality. Keep sticking to your guns, brother!

Some of the finest musicians I’ve ever played with have been in a church setting. They’re also the most obsessive bunch with gear. Playing in a church – unless it’s a HUGE auditorium-style church where you can crank it up – presents all sorts of problems with respect to volume and tone. The volume challenges led me to evaluating several attenuators, and in the absence of an attenuator, lots of overdrive pedals. Going through all that gear provided the seeds for creating this blog back in early 2007.

Thanks for stopping by!

As far as “church gigs” are concerned, any musician who really wants to put his chops to the test and also feel the power of music should try standing in front of a congregation on a Sunday. I occasionally play church gigs for a friend, though I am more of the Christian gone astray type than a hardcore. Those gigs are the ones that mix the best players, who come from a varied background, from the music conservatory to the roadhouse dogs like myself.

Keep rocking and keep writing!

When everything else in our lives becomes boring, dull , or a pain in the ass, we can always count on our guitars to make us happy, even if we aren’t virtuosos.
Thanks for putting up this site.

I had a question to ask you but too long to post it in the comments section and I can’t find your contact info. Would you be able to write me back at my e-mail address? It should be with the comment.

Thank you! Keep up the good work!

Ava

I will contact you soon again cause I need some advice on a couple of things, for me and my band!

Ciao
Andre
