Quietly practicing for the big gig, the song is by Mike Snowden - i hope he doesn't regret letting me use it, it's a cracking piece and will try and do it justice on the day i hope, and a few other new songs to boot! (-;

Wish me luck! (-:

Rum Punch started life as a 3 string but i converted it to a 4 string for this song, this opened up many possibilities for some other songs too! (-;

Just noticed. You say that it is a 4 string. It looks like a three and in your photos there is a three string that looks like that instrument. I am confused (happens easily these days). Good stuff whatever.

Very nice sound. Doesn't sound as if you are leaving it down to luck, but best wishes for the big day.

Cheers guys! the amp has two channels, guitar has two separate circuits (piezo/humbucker), vid is humbucker only, with both connected sound very loud and gritty indeed (-;

Sweet tone and playing, Steve.  Like the git and strap.  Nice Marshall amp.  Good wishes for the live performance.
