Goal: To not suck. To be able to play in time with a freakin' metronome. I can play tight as hell in a band, but I am totally lost with that little click sound. Practice time

Production Gear: iMac, PodXT, fingers.
Guitars: Ok, this is the fun part

Ibanez S7420. Heavily modded; Stripped to natural mahogany, tremol-no and a DiMarzio X2N-7 in the bridge, wired in single pickup configuration. the Neck pickup is basically just there to look pretty.

Ibanez RG7321. Stock. Needs new pups though.

Both 7's in B standard, and so far used exclusively at home.

Washburn PS500, Paul Stanley signature model. My main axe in the band. Tuned to Eb. Plays, sound and LOOKS freaking awesome.

ESP M1. I know nothing about this, but I got it at a steal, and it rocks.

Old-ass Aria SG copy. Plays like crap, but sound´s really good.

Epiphone LP Special II. My first axe, and has served me well throughout the years.

On the way, is a Cort 5-string bass w. bartolini pickups.

Amps and cabs: Laney GH50L, and an ENGL pro 4x12 w. v30's is on it's way to me as I'm typing this
