Yeah, I play lead in a band called 'Whiskey In The Morning' with russtcb. We're currently cutting our demo, which God willing, is almost done.

Currently my weapon of choice is an Epi Les Paul Standard Plus which I've wired to '59 specs with a Switchcraft jack and pup selector, CTS pots, and Bumblebee soundalike tone caps. It's got a Seymour Duncan '59 in the neck, and a Gibson Burstbucker 3 in the bridge. I play .11 DR Tite-fits, and am about to replace the nut with a bone nut.

I also have a Washburn N2 which is pretty much stock except for the EMG 81 in the bridge.

I used to have an Epi Zakk Wylde LP Custom that I had changed out all of the hardware to Gibson hardware with an EMG 81 & 85 in it. I also had an Ibanez RG550 which I still kick myself everyday for selling.

My acoustic is a Takamine EG530SC solid spruce top.

And..... I have a '97 Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier (2 channel) through a Randall cab. That's my baby.

Effects: I have a true-bypass Dunlop wah, Boss NS2 noise suppressor, DD3 delay, and TU2 tuner. I also boost my amp with a Maxon OD808.



That's my rundown... behind the scenes with WITM. I should make a video.

I'm an acoustic dude.  I picked up the harmonica over a year ago and I'm slowly learning that.  I used to play piano as a kid and I'm learning to play again (this time real songs).

I'm just in it for fun.  I sing (not well)... but I like to do a bunch of covers, anywhere from SRV to John Prine, from Mika to GNR.  It's a lot of fun.

I have a couple of friends who are amazing guitar players (they're both session musicians).  It's always great to get together with either or both for a jam.  They like to play a lot of blues and jazz which we mess around with a lot.

Front and am lead singer for my own band called The Grandfather Paradox. Got our first gig in a few weeks.

Also play some guitar and am still getting formal lessons. I play a really shity Ibanez Gio GAX75GP which comes with a downshifter but in all honesty it's a pretty sucky guitar. Also own a couple of really cheap acoustic guitars.

I'm a drummer who was a lot better years ago before I got out of practice.

I recently bought a Yamaha DTXpress electric Drumset so I can actually practice in my apartment.

I also have a Yamaha Stage Custom Advantage (5-piece) that I don't touch nearly as often as I'd like to.

Cool idea to make a thread for music chat smile

So is "Whiskey in the Morning" named after the Buckcherry track? Or your lifestyles wink

The idea came from the Buckcherry song. I proposed the idea to Russ (we seriously have been known to put away a ton of whiskey) and it stuck.
