The interior of that train offered a relativ good possibility for some strpy guitar designs in red. A fourfold exposure and a bit of fuzzier look. Any comments would be very welcome.
What a nice coinsidence! You know, this guitar is relatively rare because it has only one big mistake! Ibanez was making them only for three years back in the eighties! ;-)
About sharp sound, well it depends on the pickup you use. The left pickup is quite mellow. The bridge pickup is bright - not really sharp but bright. That's good for great amplification/overdrive since the low tones get usually too dominant then. It's really hearing all strings not only the top two or three.
Your idea for a spontaneous jam sounds pretty good to me! Drop me a note when you visit Switzeria, OK? And don't mind the distoning - just sing!
Considereng the mpeg camouflaged as a jpeg, OK, I abandon the idea - sorely but I abandon it now.
well i know this iby quite too well, seen it before... i know the sound of it too, too sharp, and you feel it how it saws the skin and flesh; my teacher of guitar has one still, though haven't seen him for some time. seeing this guitar of yours, i even can imagine what sort of music you play :). that's got to be hard rock, or metal... music that crush and burn. I, myself, some 20 yrs after you formed your band, had mine, too. I still remember me distoning while trying to get some screetching sound out of my lungs where of frogs leapt out and so much of energy just bursting and bursting and the hell set loose amongs all the imiprovised drums and guitars with ancient strings- we barely collected the needed instruments. now that band is gone, with not much left behind, in fact just few moments of crazyness. however, i still have that burning desire to sing even though i am pathetic in it and cannot really do it. so, if i just to Switzera, i'll bump over and maybe shuffle through some energizers! as for UF, well, they barely allow some comments sometime, and as to mpeg-- i am highly doubtful!
But I could also just put my guitar on flames by using some alcohol, Visar ;-) Oh, no! Wait, the whisky is not for that, it's for drinking it! ;-)
I am in bands and jams since I was 14, Visar. First gig was back in Greece in 1978. A complete catastrophe, you know ;-) But it was a hell of a fun. Actually, when I here those recordings today, I have the impression that we, me and my band "Habeas Corpus", were the real inventors of trash without even wanting that! We simply sounded like trash and that's all! ;-)
I am searching for people for forming a new band for the time being, but there's not really much rock in good old Switzeria. They don't seem to get it, that a rock band doesn't look and sound "nice", that's it. But I keep confident that some day I'll get my people and then we'll surely turn the place to hell! ;-)
I also thought about how to transfer such an image on the face of my guitar, but I can't find any viable way to do that. And I am also a bit anxious that it could just ruin my old faithful Iby - that's her, my guitar! So I let her be pink. I attach an image of her here and you can find some reviews at http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar/product/Ibanez/PR1660/10/1
Well, my review would be: This guitar can do anything that isn't halfhearted. You really have to get very very powerful with her - she doesn't like soft sex at all ;-) And she didn't let me down a single time. Just the few necessary best ingedients to make a good guitar, and no other balast. You drop it on the floor while playing, pick it up again, and still it is in perfect tune. Not to mention the fast and exact responce that she shows to each and every touch. Man, I can hear even my finger tips of the left hand trying to balance the excessive power of the vibrating strings - but then I just let her go like a wild horse ;-)
Wow, I must be very entusiastic now, ey? Anyway, about hearing some short sequences.. I am thinking of attaching an mpeg camouflaged as a jpg file. You would just have to replace the file extension. But would that work? Should I try that? And is it allowed by UF at all?
ah yeahhh, that's a good face for the guitar body!! it shows that spirit of it, burning flames- like i happen to hear some of viruous ones playing and feeling/ imaginging hell smoke coming from it!! ;) so you also play guitar!!? niceee, i myself, always wanted so much but never dedicated that much of time to it- even after i bought it many yrs ago. only a few songs that the whole world knows and involve no more than a two- three chords and a simple rhythem- like house of the rising sun or knocking on heavens door- or sth like that :(...
Many thanks for the nice comment, Dave! Indeed it is exactly that mixing up of all components that I fond so good for placing it on the guitar body afterwards. It gives a pretty much twisted look. ;-)
Yes, I have the same trouble as you do, Paul. Simply because there is no guitar in there! ;-)
Seriously now, as I assume you already saw, this series is always in pairs of images. One of them, like this here, is only the multiple exposure that is then used on the next image to put it on the guitar body. Mimic Eddie Van halen, that is! Just making my guitar design dreams come true, or something similar ;-) Of course to mimic him playing is another story! ;-)
