Cornelius:
 
Welcome to the club and congrats on your new Tribute.  It's always nice to have another guitarist around here, the place is definitely bass-heavy.  Are you related to Jay Leno, by any chance?  The resemblance is striking!  LOL
 
Bill, the guitar one

Welcome Cornelius, great guitar. Either something is unusual with your picture or someone spiked my coffee!

Paul; I think that's what happens when you play a Tribute for 24 hours in a row.

Welcome... and nice guitars (well, awesome, really!)
 
Or should that be...?
 
Nice guitars!  (Well, awesome, really) and welcome!
 
While I'm content with my Les Paul, I've always wanted an Alembic... I'm really afraid that I'd end up maybe not being able to play the LP anymore if I got one!
 
That, plus limited income has limited my Alembics to the low end.
 
Boy, those two look sharp!  It looks like your Series has a couple bonus switches.  What do they do?  LEDs?
 
Congrats on the new score, you've got quite a pair there!

There is a lot of truth in that 8-string. I have an alembic Orion guitar and since I bought it just over a year ago. My strat has hardly got a look in. Maybe a token gesture as a mark of respect. But 99% of my gigs I take the Alembic on the road with me. I've bought some Strat style alembic pickups & filters on ebay recently and sent them back to Alembic for them to overhaul.
When I get them back I'll install them in the strat and take it on the road.
 
Back to the tribute, it looks great. I've seen a few in coco bola tops and it makes them look very regal.

The 4 electrics have effect loops with CAE Sound JG-1 and JG-2 gain buffers, done by me. the alembic series 2 was a knightmare Job done with the help of alembic tech support by e-mail

Hey Cornelius, why do I suspect you may have heard of a guitar player named Jerry Garcia? hehehehe.  The double-jacked Strat is a trip!  
 
Bill, tgo

Is that a Carvin Holdsworth I see?

How do you like the Hard Truckers cabs? Doesn't look like their standard Tone Tubbys.

hi first that is a Carvin Holdsworth with a cae gain buffer setup like the tribute, i installed buffer effect loops in most of my guitars, next the Hard Truckers cabs are great, they are acoustically transparent,its like really hearing the speakers for the first time i have 2 jbl e120 and 2 evm 12l

What is the board on the floor?  Looks like a midi controller.

Thanks!  I just looked over the manual; looks like a nice controller.  I also looked at Ebay and saw that there's an older version; different type of foot switches, two rows of switches instead of three.

I'm not a deadhead, but I'm guessing that your latest picture is going to up the drool factor and get some response around here.... =)
 
Nice setup.
