John, what are the controls between the pad and the neck? Volume, Tone, and the switch(on/off?)
Excuse the dumb question, but I am curious.

Sounds great John. Is that your own arrangement?

Well spotted Danny yes that is none standard it has a socket for tuner in that plate hence extra switch.....I know its not needed there but hey ho....
Zak I did'nt "arrange" it I just played it, don't claim it to be right but that is how I hear the toon in my head.

Thanks John, interesting addition.

Zak, I've had the pleasure of sitting up close and listening to John playing his lovely, green Emmons push pull, and while he completely plays from 'ear', his ad-libbing and chord work is superb, never straying too far from the melody. Magic.

Sounds lovely John! And I agree 100% with Danny, your ability to pick out the tune of any song in your own arrangement is exceptional. Something I aspire to one day!
Hope the blue guitar finds a good home once you let it go. Sadly way outside my price range, plus I've run out of guitar hiding places in the house!
