| Greetings!
This month Joey Leone takes a break from top-ten
lists and shares some insight into the life of a "too loud"
gigging guitar player. Michael
Wright takes us with him to a Las Vegas Pawn Shop and we'll check back with Kirk Lorange in a nice
article that dovetails with Joey's piece, called "Getting Your
Own Sound".
Rob Roberge is back with some Crazy EBAY Finds and
we get some insight and History into the original Ovation
Ultra-GP from Edward Pitt.

This column is about the truth as I know it, being a
gigging guitar player in the sometimes unfriendly world of
clubs, bars and venues big and small. Now let us address the
scourge of the alleged soundman, you know that angry guy in
the sweatpants behind the soundboard that keeps telling you to
turn down.

Now, I don't really think there was - or even would have
been - any sinful activity associated with this guitar. And
the fact that its design is based in part on a religious motif
is purely coincidence. But it is a funny story how this rare
1978 Kawai KS-700 was discovered, in SinCity, no less.

One of my students was around the other night and pointed
out that even when I was playing his guitar (a beautiful
Strat), I still sounded like me. It's true - no matter what
guitar or amp I plug into, I always sound like me. After 38
years of playing, it would be impossible for me not to. For a
long time this bugged me. I guess because I was so used to "my
sound", I started to think it was pretty ordinary, and over
the years I've made the odd attempt to change it. I can't
anymore.

I had a single-minded desire for single-ended tone, but I
didn't want to drop insane moolah on a tweed Champ (or any of
the tweed Champ clones out there, or even a tweed Champ kit),
cool as they may be. Heck, even a Silverface Champ is going to
set you back in the $300+ range these days. And it's a Fender.
Dependable? Yup. Great sounding? Sure. But no one is going to
see it and say, "What the hell is that?"
