Allright!!  (Nice shirt, by the way!)
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Had a last minute gig on Saturday backing up Grammy award winning guitarist/producer/songwriter Larry Mitchell, along with local guitar whiz Dave Uhrich. Fun stuff, no rehearsal! Brought the Distillate and it sounded great. There was some low end feedback on stage that we finally figured out was likely the bass rig aggravating a drum mic. I eventually turned down the lows and it seemed to go away.

Love Larry Mitchell's playing and the way he shapes his sound; he has been one of the resources I've drawn from in learning how to use delays and reverb.  Cool that you got to play with him!

That's cool! I wasn't familiar with him prior to this. He sent me some song files a few days prior to the gig and we had a quick run through in the dressing room before the show. Really nice stuff, and he is the NICEST guy. Super chill and appreciative.

This was a session gig I did for an Taiwanese singer called Kowen Ko. You can check out his youtube channel here: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCZILrpz5dm_A86fns5aF0ng

Medium Scale correct! Thanks!
