What do you mean by suspended? Are you saying a sus 4?

No, still have the same gig but I'm a band geek at heart. Will friend you asap.

I've heard they have a good football program but how's the  marching band?

I own one.  Thought I'd pick it up. Haven't since.  Love the instrument though.

I just emailed you tabs. There are some color tones going on in the guitar line that are probably throwing you off.

- Short scale (like a Gibson) for ease of travel.
- Onboard tuner and pickup (less crap to carry around)
- Solid top, laminate sides (keeps the price down)
- Natural matte wood finish, not painted or high gloss (wood and being outside kinda go together)
- Carry-on conforming case for travel, with padded sleeve for tablet or small computer.
- Single Cutaway (playability)
- Locking pegs (will help with keeping tune across multiple climates, etc.)

That last point hit the nail on the head for me. I have listened to them for years, but never passionately...Sure, they are great technicians, but you really miss out on the best part of Rush until you go see them and realize they are just having fun and joking around with a lot of their music.

I've seen them twice and really enjoy them now, but it took a concert to flip that switch for me.

Great work! Good tone on the leads.

Pro tip: If you drink scotch whilst playing your 6er, your vision may double. This will give you the feeling of playing a 12 stringer, including the enormous headache when you try to tune the sucker.

I have a number of noteworthy stories. Not haha funny..but here goes one, by way of example:

I was once paid $800 for 5 minutes of work, not counting load in. We were playing at a favorite Irish pub and had just loaded in our gear and started our first song. A cook runs out of the kitchen disgusted. Before we start song number two, the manager walks up and asks me to step off mic for a second.

I step to the side, and he explains that someone had an "issue" in the restroom, clogged a toilet, backed up the whole system, a pump failed and the restrooms were - much to our disgust - backing up into the kitchen. We had an airtight contract with the place, so we made our full night's pay, but the bar closed down at 8.15. It opened up a couple of days later and we played a make up gig, and were booked monthly at the place for another year or so.

We liked to drop funk bombs when we played, but generally not that type....
