Hi  Well now I play saxes,flutes EWI wind synth...
but many moons ago I played acoustic guitar,and been modifying stuff when I got inspired ;)  in 1978 or so I added 13 sympathetic strings to my acoustic(across the bridge) ,raised the nut / used as a slide slitar I called it.Showed it to my local music shop(then in Normal,Ill. ) & guy told me John McLaughlin just had made a similar axe..well who was John M?? found out then & got inspired like mad from his music. After modding some other strings instr.& playing my own songs in various clubs,pubs in US & UK, I decided to spend more time on woodwinds..Fast forward 20 yrs...
Now wanting to get back into guitar again..but never really clicked with electric ones, til I got a Variax(1st model out 300 or 600??) lots of fun,& now I put a GK3 with Roland GI20 on it. Thinking of getting a Godin SA model now,or using the Fishman TP on something..therefore I join here as lots of questions...
Use a Yamaha VL70m,Roland XV2020,Novation Mini Nova,& some soft synths.
I work as a repair tech for musical instruments as well as having my own shop here...
Glad to join this forum,as I hope I can get 'smarter' with the MIDI stuff
Cheers Shanti
