Do we have any musicians oh LPF?

haha. my sister is a flute player. It's quite a fun instrument, but I prefer the more mellow colorful timbre of the wooden clarinet more. Especially nice as the clarinet is also known for its ability to play very very quietly.
 





I payed piano for about 6 years and then stopped, I can't remember any songs but I can certainly improv well. I've been playing guitar a few times a week for about 10 years now and have quite the collection. I have a custom strat with seymour 67 pickups both bridge and humbucker, schecter diamond series damien 6, Lennon inspired Epiphone Casino, Yamaha LS6M, and a cheap classical guitar. My amps are a Vox 200W and another Vox 50W. I've also got a lot of pedals including loop station, overdrive2, harmonix, distortion, CFH crybaby wahwah, bigmuffpi, polytune, and voodoo power station. I'm looking to get a parametrix EQ so I can really blast out my sound like my idols; Dimebag, Hammett, Morton, and Malmsteen. I sometimes play some random classical music including agustin barrios and lots of Bach but mainly I like to get the volume, reverb, and distortion all the way up and just blast out some mind numbing solos haha I love the feeling of that super loud and powerful metal sound at my fingertips :beer:

That's quite a collection of stuff. I used to make and fix tube amps for people and compare their sounds on special speakers. I miss doing it. Someone I know actually makes custom audio parts for amps, speakers, and stuff like that, and while expensive due to being custom low-production, they're quite amazing sounding.
 
I had a Marshall double stack with 8 Celestion 12 inch speakers and a 100 watt Marshall tube amp. With it I had a Gibson 70 Custom Les Paul, a 68 Gibson SG Custom, a 59 Gibson Melody Maker, and a 64 Gibson LG acoustic I got new. I was always a Gibson man. I never found anything to compare to the Marshall double stack. It had enough power to make you go deaf if turned up 3/4ths of the way up and still had the sustain and clean output so it didn't sound like mud. Very necessary when playing 64th notes. I found the power ratings on amps to be very misleading as the Marshall 100 watt tube head could blow away everything else available at the time. I also had a Peavey 900 eight channel mixer with four Peavey 100 watt vocal projectors. My last band members were some of the most accomplished musicians I ever met. The keyboard player had a Yamaha electric piano and a Korg synthesizer, the drummer had a Rogers drum kit with everything one would need, and our bass player was my cousin inlaw and played a Gibson EBO and had a Peavey folded bass amp that kept up pretty well with my Marshall. Those were the days!
 
I built a Fender Tremolux 60 Watt amp from the schematic
when I was in high school. 2 12" and 2 15" speakers will

Last summer, I was asked to set up and demo a player piano
at the museum. Boy, were my legs tired from those bellow pumps....
