I'm familiar with that uncomfortableness.
"Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible god and destroys a visible nature. Unaware that this nature he's destroying is this god he's worshipping." - Hubert Reeves

I find embedding from Flickr painful, so here's a link to the album: https://flic.kr/s/aHskJHguob

What a day! Highlights for me:

- meeting my first AxeFX up close. Fascinating, and very cool.
- Mal's crazy wah-phase-tortion thing into his amps. That thing was insane. That sound will stay with me for a long time.
- Finally getting to fire up my new Bog Spider, and Tod kindly lending me a 4x12 to put it through. I am beyond happy with that acquisition, and for a song too. Stoked.
- Scooter's new "strat" :lol: So heavy compared to the Charvel, it just oozed quality.
- Having a hoon on Scooter's Flying V through a Bronson into my amp. I want one of each please!
- All the Gibson action, just so many tasty guitars
- Seeing such a good bunch of GCs in one place, and sharing a cheese scone or two. 8)

Whose is the Swart? I've always wondered if I need an AST pro and just haven't realised it yet...

Ha, yeah that was one where google photos did random effecting. I kind of liked it so kept it. Think Scott would struggle to bend that neck, it was super solid!

I have a deal of Silverpistol GAS now too, but it is kind of undefined. So many good tones from so many different rigs, and I don't really know what I want from one into my new amp yet.
