The summer sojourn is ending

I'm not sure if it's good or bad, or what I really want, but the month-long break is coming to an end, and I hit the corporate road come July. Back to proper attire, office hours, office etiquette etc. No more lazing around the house, the beach, hanging out at the CD store etc. May be welcoming, I guess, and the money helps. See how it goes. Just hope I'll adapt quickly and painlessly.

Gold Top Std

Ah, a special one. I've been meaning to write about this for a while, but didn't get the chance. It's a 2002 Gold Top standard, all stock, but pre-Burstbucker era. Sweet tones still, and can't go too far wrong when you crank it up for some sweet Southern rock or that jazz-tinged blues. Beautiful.

The Fender Strat American Std make-over

It's a 1991 Fender U.S. Strat - everything stock except for the pickups - I swapped them with Lindy Fralins Blues Specials. Now they hit the sweet overdriven tones without all the extra 60 Hz cyclical hum. Lovely.

Great tone, great texture - a true Heritage. A jazz lover's dream axe.

Idle hands

Boy, being out of work sucks. Big time. Time drags, even though I thought having time drew the biggest appeal when I was in a job. Just spending my days surfing, reading, listening to music, strumming my guitar, talking to strangers. Need to get some exercise. Breathe in, breathe out. There, much better now.
