Hopefully you spent a shit load and won't hear a difference. Then you'll be a welcome member of the club. :cheers2:
Sadly, I'm banking on it - pardoning the "spending a shitload", I think I got off lucky in that department, but still not "cheap".

We'll see.

What are you going to do for your rhythm cables? Do you have some way you switch back and forth while playing?
Excellent question - I've had Bradshaw set up a switching system that will automatically re-direct signals from my guitar by a sound processing based CPU that understand not only chordal sequences (rhythm guitar), but also the chromatic scale - so that when I play any solos, an entirely different set of "solo specific cables" are employed.

It's crazy, but Tag and I have really found out how to capture the perfect tone...

What have you found for rhythm and lead picks? I've found that when students had trouble with rhythm they were usually using lead picks on the rhythm strings. Rhythm picks on lead strings is total chaos!

Excellent question. I have carbon fiber/nickel alloy/polymer set custom picks; one for each string. The tonal explosion is in yer face - no denying it. It does make arpeggios a bit tedious, what with the swapping of plectrums for each string, but this prototype neck mounted plectrum dispenser has been priceless in assisting me with this endeavor.

In addition to the plectrum-per-string approach to playing (which is catching on very fast, as you'll soon see), we're also working with high pressure emmissions of cryogenically "frozen" air to be released IN FRONT of the cabinet during certain times of playing. It's amazing the difference in sound, it really brings out the 'shimmer' in the highs and the 'groundshake' in the lower frequencies. Word of caution though, as I typically test this in my studio (read: my 11' x 10' bedroom in my parent's home), the cryogenically frozen air can wreak havoc on one's lungs and household pets.

ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE: I'll stop this insanity, right this second!! Sorry guy's I had to, it was just ripe for the taking :lol: :LOL:

Thats quite good! I've been thinking of just cryogenically freezing my fingers and not even using picks. But I can't decide what is a rhythm or lead finger?!?!?

Yes snow days a re a dangerous thing. :lol: :LOL:

FYI cables don't matter
So you're telling me I don't need a cable to play electric guitar through an amp?
