Location: Midland, MI | Well, as I posted in another thread, I'm suffering from a horrendous case of GAS. Through careful negotiations, judicious use of my super-human powers of persuasion...er, ok, begging and pleading, SWMBO sez I can look for relief. Well, that took some of the fun out of it.
But, anyway, here's the meat of the issue...saw LZ on VH1 Classic (man, I must be old, all the songs of my youth are classics) doing 'What is and what never shall be.' I've always liked that, so I whipped out the 'Big-O-Elite' and figured out the solo part...well, most of it. Just hearing it from the back of the guitar was...awesome. I went down and played it on my 'lectric, with the appropriate tube sound and all, and I tell ya...if Page had played an O, that song would've sold MILLIONS! I mean...uh, yeah...
I am so impressed by this guitar...let those Martin-Taylor wankers disparage my O...they can't get the sound I do. Ovations RAWK!
OK, seriously, many thanks to whomever at the Mother Ship put together my O back in '89. It's awesome (O-some?). |
Fell in love all over again
