Certainly not one for the ages...

Tonight I fired up an old tradition. I got out some cables and the crappy Radio Shack kareoke amplifier thing I use as a post-amp, and I recorded some guitar noise. I haven't been playing a whole lot lately, and I'm pretty rusty. I played on both the Strat and the Bolt, which probably highlights the fact that I need to acquire more pickups for the Bolt. A few months back, the last of the Carvin pickups died, and I was forced to move the Fender Lace Sensor that Phil gave me down to the bridge position. It still sounds pretty good, but I definitely miss the sound of two pickups in unison on that guitar. I've been thinking of buying a couple more of the Fender Lace Sensors, but spending money is tight with all of the eye business lately.

Well, back to the recording. It's pretty aimless for the most part. I just dinked around for most of the "session," but there were a few sections in there where I played parts of "real" songs. Anyhow, here it is. Enjoy.

Do you have nearby neighbors? :)

Yep! That's why everything was recorded using headphones and line outs. No large speaker cabinets were injured during the making of this episode.

So I just listened to your "session" and I didn't really hear music....I heard this" Attention young juvinile wanker types, uplinking is very gay, stop stealing my content" with a very squealing guitar in the back.....is that what it's supposed to sound like??? If so....not so good! :)

You just need to click the link and choose save. That's my "no hotlinking" sound, and no, that's not what you should be hearing. ;)

I actually fixed the hotlinking stuff so it should allow you to load it up in media players without it breaking.
