.. busy doesn't always mean productive - I can recommend a good time-management course to help you out so you have the chance to do more in less time....

Don't assume. I read it. I'm not interested in the "world landmark" part. I wish I was here when it was the movie "Field of 64".

Hahaha! Good one!

hell, Im scared to get out into the "serious" threads.

But, hey... as long as they aren't copy/pasting miles of redundant hype off of other websites,... I'd be interested in their thoughts.

Yes. Too busy bumping the shit out of your crappy threads, to read anyone else's for five minutes to get the hang of of the place.

Don't wish to frighten you further, but just wait 'til you see the size of my clipboard - I've been told it's quite impressive, and it might just change your mind about that....

Clipboard envy.

I would like that very much... I no longer wish to be associated with the "AG" burden... I was the first to sign on here and only used the "AG" as a means of letting others know it was alright to step outside the norm...

just plain ole Dev would be great but there is already one registered...

"Stevonez" is a name I've used in the past... the first guitar I got some fifteen years ago was an Ibanez... my name is Stevon... thus I put the two together and became online user Stevonez...

I'd be willing to take this name again if at all possible... thanks... :)

It is done! :thumb2:

@Stevonez: Doesn't Ibanez make the Steve Vai seven-string guitar?

thanks again UT... feels better already... :D

I checked with my good friends at google and they confirmed your thoughts...

Solidbody Electric Seven-String Guitars
The solid-body electric sevenstring guitar first entered production in 1990, with the introduction of Steve Vai's Ibanez signature model, the Ibanez Universe. At the time, Vai was heavily into numerology, and in particular was drawn to the number 7. Apparently unaware of prior experimentation with additonal strings in the jazz world, Vai was drawn to the idea for much the same reasons seven string jazz players were - the extended range the additonal string offered. After initial experimentation with a high A, a low B was added as the high A proved to be too prone to breaking (George Lynch was experimenting with seven string designs independently at this time as well, also tuned to high A, but opted not to pursue development largely due to issues with an experimental moveable pickup system). Vai began touring with Whitesnake with a seven string prototype, and then used the guitars heavily on what is considered to be a landmark instrumental rock album, his 1990 release "Passion and Warfare."...

Yeah, well. I play a Gibson.

By the way...it's "effect', not "affect".

Passion And Warfare is undoubtedly one of my favorite albums of all time. A fantastic display of technically challenging instrumental music and studio wizardy.
