Hey guys. I was very graciously asked my Mr. Friedman to come on his show, Tone-Talk later this month.
I'm extremely honored and beyond happy to do it! Some of the legends that have graced that show as guests (and hosts!) are my guitar and gear heroes. I'm just a nobody with the same passions as many of you and it's hard for me to imagine that I deserve to be among such highly esteemed guests on that show. I'm comfortable speaking, and I think I'm a good hang, but I also think I'm a bit out of my league, here.
I'm sure I could yap for a few hours on PAFs and pickups, talk about the Gibson / PAF book I wrote with Mario, how I came to be where and who I am, etc. I build / restore amps and guitars, as well, so I can hang with the techy amp talk that show often gets into. I think Marc, Dave, and I also have very similar tastes in music so I'm not short for general music and gear conversation, there. ...but I'm a little worried that "pickups" is a pretty dry topic, and that's what I've been asked to come on for. This show is frequented by rock stars and legends with epic stories!
A large part of the live show, however, seems to be answering questions from the live chat. I'm really good at answering questions on the spot, as I do that all day on the phone and email. I am hoping that, perhaps some of you guys who have time and interest and questions, might be able to hop on the live chat and ask some of your pickup questions? I'll promise to answer every single one asked, even if something gets skipped on the show and I have to go back later and individually answer more.
Whatcha think? I know this forum always has pickup questions. Can you guys hop on the Tone-Talk channel during that show and help me out? I'd be stoked to show my MLPeoples some extra love! Ask anything about pickups, guitar electronics, early Gibson and Fender history, early Marshalls (Dave will cover all I don't know there!) or anything about me or my business. Shoot, ask me about MLP, cake, four stacks of Plexi, AstroCat and Fezziwig! Whatever works. Just hoping to get a little participation so I don't come across as a massive flop of a guest.
The show is Friday, Marsh 31st, at 9 PM Eastern.
