OMG! Well, the last two years have been devastating for freelancers around here, so the bank is broke. However I do have one of those nice little (cheap) Yamaha Pacifica Tele copies laying around that just might lose its frets sometime. I've had it tuned in 5ths since you started writing about the 'stick', but honestly, I haven't played it much. I'll be keeping the frets IN on the Asat and the Tennessean, thank you very much ;) I just acquired my first EDP, so I'm in the throes of learning that right now. When Jeff gets 2.0 out, I'll probably drift back to the computer, but I'm really enjoying the somewhat liberating experience of hardware for the moment --EDP + Repeater has some interesting possibilities. My biggest problem with this stuff is getting a chance to play it with somebody (or keeping the inspiration up to play a lot by myself). I'm pretty type-cast as a 'standards jazz guy' around here. The solo gigs I get offered are *very* inside. Hmmm.
