New Hardware Aquired

Hello again, this is Solid Snake and I'm back with some major music equipment upgrades..


For a long time until now I've been gazing upon famous guitarists' guitars, wishing I owned one of those, one day.. up until recently. I'd collected some budget, and researched everywhere.. online and offline. Then something caught my eye, my mind and my all and I realised that I could not compromise with anything else..


In a local shop I went to try an Epiphone Les Paul guitar and after telling me that he got out of stock, the sales man offered me a Gibson Les Paul Studio model... I got my hands on it and started playing and it was all I needed to fall in love with it.. Next day after not being able to forget what I felt.. I purchased it!


I love everything about this guitar, especially the playability and the deep sound of it. An incredible feeling. Here it is, check it out:









I hope you like it!
Personally I'm in love with it..!

Another fine upgrade after purchasing my Gibson Les Paul Studio is ordering the FBV Express Pedal MKII for my Line6 amplifier. Now I can switch through channels while playing, create and play loops, control the volume or wah wah levels etc. This is it:



Both of these upgrades will definitely help me upgrade my playing skill. The most important is that I enjoy it much more now!

Stay tuned for more stuff!

My Equipment

These are the guitars I jam on..:

1. First one is a Lindo LTD "Fender Strat" design type, electric guitar. It was my first "for beginners" guitar, got it cheaply and I'm about to replace it when I get the funds. It's main problem is the strings' "height level". They are set high and this makes it difficult to play solos close to the top frets.. Never mind it's my first guitar ever and I'm in love with that. The sticker design pattern is mine and I think it gives a nice custom look to this specific guitar, doesn't it?





2. This is my Classic Guitar. It's an easy one to play on and has a nice sound for slow songs. I play songs with chords mainly here.


3. This is my Lindo LTD Blue Slim Electro-Acoustic guitar. It's great because it's a Slim design and it is extremely easy to carry on anywhere anytime plus it has an output to an amplifier so I can do some distortion rocking on this one too. In case you combine it with a mini amp, you can play distorted on the move! I love the looks of it  but it's also a "beginner" guitar so don't expect much from the sound of it.


4. This is my main electric guitar Amplifier. A Line6 Spider IV 75Watt amp with a ton of effects and presets on. It's sound is excellent and you can't play this in an apartment without annoying your neighbors (Mine have even called the police). Honestly you can make your guitar sound any way you like it to. Will get to purchase it's pedal once I get to collect the funds needed.


5. This was my first electric guitar amplifier. It's a Stagg 10 Watt amp with a MP3 jack in, plus phones out, plus a bad Overdrive channel. It's sound is not good, it is satisfying only for "beginners" who want a simple sound so they can learn how to play. Don't expect much from it.


6.This is my portable Marshall MS-2C 2 Watt mini guitar amplifier. It is a nice mini amp to play anywhere using my electric or electro-acoustic guitars. It feels good to play on a beach right next to the water without the need of power supply. It only uses a 9V battery and has both nice clean and distorted sound for it's size.


That's it. Soon I'll post some videos of me jamming.
I hope to see you back soon!
