Boot-Leg / ESP SexMachineGuns Anchang Model

と, 言うことでジョージ先生の最近はまっているトーン。いかがでしょうか？　テレキャスターからノイズのあるデストーション・ペダルへ。すさまじい叫びですよね。このアルバムでは使われていないですか最近日本で手に入れたSexMachineGunsのギタリスト、Anchangモデルのペダルにはまっているとか。人生面白いんもんですよね。あれだけのリンチ・フリークのAnchang. 彼のシグネチャー・モデルのペダルを逆にジョージが好んで使っているとは。Gerry George’s guitar tech was telling me that he recently picked up a new pedal while visiting Japan called the Andora’s Box created by Boot-Leg and ESP for SexMachineGuns Guitarist Anchang. While I was in Tokyo I visited ESP in Shibuya. They had the last 4. You know who has a killer pedal collection? Jake E. Lee. Where are you Jake?

Looking for a Waist/Shoulder Bag for Shows

I need a bag to carry my stuff around during shows. (In the Pit) Looking for a Made in Japan bag that looks something like this. The Brand here is called master - piece. Do any of you MetalHeads know of any other Japanese Brand? Thank you. と、言う事で日本製のバッグを探してます。ライブでも簡単に持てるスタイル。master-piece の他にブランドありますか？

New Recording Device "MIKEY"

I have been looking for a super portable recording device that can be used in tight situations (in the PIT). I borrowed my friends little device produced by a company called, Blue. I took this MIKEY, along with me to a show in Santa Clara CA on Thursday to see Lizzy Borden. Had my Flip MinoHD in one hand and MIKEY connected to my iTouch in the other. (position: stage right leaning on the stage) Unfortunately, even with the lowest mic gain setting, the audio did not turn out well. Lets just say, total distortion. This is the original MIKEY, and the NEW MIKEY will be available sometime this year. Hope the new version has more settings.

Guitar Project Begins Today

I sent off the Photoshopped 'CHIAKI Brand Prototype", image of the guitar to Dan Lawrence in Los Angeles last month. He likes the design and gave me the thumbs up. I have spent the last month looking for a luthier that can actually build me a body and neck to my specs. We all know what we like in terms of the feel of the neck and the body, but I needed someone that can translate that into actual dimensions. The radius the nut width, the exact measurements of the neck etc. etc. I think I found the perfect man that can become a huge part of this project. A small door to a huge Future LOL! 一月かけてやっとギターのボデーとネックを作ってくれる人物を見つけ上げる事が出来ました。去年の１１月にロスに在住する７０年代から数多くのミュージシャンのギター＆ベース・グラフィックを塗って来た男にデザインを送り話を進めて来ました。彼は　Eddie Van Halen, George Lynch, Warren De Martini, Slash, Zakk, Zappa....... と取りあえずMTVでおなじみのギターをすべて塗って来た人物です。そのダン・ローレンンス氏に今回のプロジェクト参加してもらいます。　今日からプロジェクト本格的に開始です。
