Sloppy Strings: I got my son a Gibson!!!
http://sloppy-strings.blogspot.com/2008/03/i-got-my-son-gibson.html
Monday, March 24, 2008. I got my son a Gibson! My son (Samuel, 4 years old) got a Gibson guitar for Easter! I bought him a Gibson Power Tour electric guitar. We went checking out the ladies in the mall while my wife and daughter did the groceries. We ended up going to Toy R Us. He comes running to me " Dad dad dad! A guitar like you! I told him maybe the Easter Bunny could bring him one. On Sunday morning the Easter bunny brought him one! Maybe I'll try to post a video later of him shredding it out!

http://sloppy-strings.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 24, 2007. When I picked up the guitar in October I found this online course on Ebay: How I Got Killer Chops While Still in High School. I hope I keep this ritual because it'll help me progress a lot faster. OK back to practicing. Thursday, November 22, 2007. POD Live XT 2 : Digging In. It's great to have all these variations at your disposal, for example using weird and wacky synth sounds, but gosh darn it, I just wanna play guitar! Tuesday, November 20, 2007. Got my Line 6 POD XTLive!

http://sloppy-strings.blogspot.com/2008/04/pod-x3-gets-computer-interface.html
Sunday, April 6, 2008. POD X3 Gets a Computer Interface! I bought a POD X3. I was growing tired of editing my tones with the knobs on the unit itself. Here are some screen shots showing the guitar amp selections and some guitar settings. What a joy to have drop-down menus again! I'm going to have to do a quick read through of the manual but I really like what I see so far. Im a big Jack White fan, so I want to make that sound specifically :-). September 8, 2009 at 6:40 PM.

Sloppy Strings: May 2008
http://sloppy-strings.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 4, 2008. I had been recording with Tracktion 3. For the past few months. It was the first DAW I had played with and it was really easy to put together some decent tracks. I decided to up the capabilities using Ableton Live 7. It was a bit ackward at first but I'm starting to get the hang of it. What I like is how you can really tweak your clips and tracks to do exactly what you want. I've recorded two tracks to pract lately:. Whole Lot of Rosie (AC/DC). And Shout At The Devil (Motley Crue).

Friday, January 25, 2008. Learning ALL the notes on the fretboard! I read a great article about learning the notes on the fretboard. Let's see if it works, and see if I can stick to it. Monday, January 14, 2008. I don't need no stinkin' theory! Haha NOT. I've been trying to get into music theory so I can learn more about the reasoning behind scales, chords, keys, modes, sheet music, etc. I bought this really helpful book two weeks ago: The Everything Music Theory Book.
