Those bit-o-honey candies are mine!

Carl comes in strong with the neo-soul dark city night shredscape. The stem glass of red wine and fibonacci shirt were definite neo-soul tone enhancers. Nice tone and chops as usual fusionbear!

Excited to hear you play brother!

@nightlight has kicked off the event with a rocking style entry, good on him!

It would be cool if @mentoneman busted out the burning water JAMES TYLER GUITAR and his rack gear for this, especially since @Omnipotent1 has offered to make it work out for the winner, even if they are outside the lower 48.

@harddriver I been tagging you bro but it's giving me fits. Let's hear that EVH on some smoove licks.

Who else....

sounds like fun but i’m slammed till the end of May with multiple graduations/parties, work projects, and my garage is a disaster until i complete my tele project. i’m having a blast sanding the poly neck and body finishes off, arm and belly contours, painting like seafoam washing up on a sandy hawaiian beach, staining the raw wood here and there, and generally enjoying the process of tweaking a tele!

i realized that i have a perfect prerecorded entry featuring the debut of mrs mentoneman bringing her 70s disco wah attack over the neo soul fusion stylings of her hubby, replete with a generous showcasing of her exotic hawaiian lebanese feet🤣



she’s a keeper😍🥳💃

Should I win, my only wish would be for the candy to go to some underprivileged kids in your neighbourhood or elsewhere. They truly deserve it.

Just don't pull up in a van saying, "Hey kids, you want some candy?" haha
 
Not really ready for the true entry, but I did record a voice memo with the Bogner to make sure it was up to the tasty licks edge of breakup standard. This was noiseless singles on a Jackson rather than the PRS 25th. Ani. I think the Jackson might actually be what I go with. I need to try it close + room miced though. The room's sort of shit in terms of treatment but it's a weird shape and has a lot of junk in it acting as ad-hoc diffusers so maybe it'll be OK to room mic.

It's going to be hard to defeat that entry.

Thanks man. Honestly I never know what people are going to think of the stuff I play :unsure:

Or since this the the neo-soul competition, you gotta know a man whose tan pants will discretely expand to reflect current conditions is going to bring it :D

I'm also starting to feel like maybe the 104BV purple channel is sort of awesome...

No thinkin- Just let the guitar do the talkin 🤌🏽 🙂Bogner ecstasy eh! I have a Barcelona I store for a buddy (amazing single channel clean), & uberschall’s (cleans not so nice on those) lol He recommended the ecstasy & the shiva to me. I’ve never played one but I hear great things, & apparently the purple channel on the 104 can bring it too. Keep it up 😁 Looking forward to your final entry as well. 👍🏽👍🏽

This stuff is great to warm up to, I rarely think of dynamics when I start warming up and should make that a consistent thing.

Ah steak…. My arch nemesis.. We were once friends until we jousted, & I lost to the Tomahawk.. Woke up multiple times that night with the meat sweats… Never knew what that meant until I felt like I was going to meet the lord… Clean plate club is over rated my friends.. 😔
